@@jodielindroth7084 was pretty easy to do. Just followed the direction that came with the lights and added a switch in the wiring. Got some funny oem style switches that fit in the blank panels. One was zombie light other was machine gun and other low beer alarm. I put these lights on the zombie light switch.
Just installed 3 amber lights a few days ago. Easy mod. Engine fuse box method. I debated on going with the 4 (snap-in) type but decided I liked the looks of just 3 (screw-in) style.
I used a small file on the lip of the fuse box. The add a circuit sits in it. Lid went on snuggly without pinching wire at all. I feel good about it. Stay safe down there.
Good lights and easy to install. The only down side issue is they don’t fit the slots under the Toyota bar. Never realized that the lower slots were a different size? I was planning on putting mine low. Still like the lights!
@@TRDJon you too, I was hearing some good stuff from the state for small businesses, not sure if you'd qualify. I turned the daughter's Capoeira studio onto the state for some relief... Maybe you can get some along with other small business owners. 🤞
Wow that’s so cool 😎 I love all the lights so much hahah I want lights everywhere no more hard to see at night my family lives in az up in the mountains it’s crazy dark there anyway my bro is super into off road and my dad was too. Can’t wait to get that 4Runner and meet up with my bro and have some off road fun 😬👍🏼all need all the lights I can get 😆
I Love your 4Runner, Jon. Kick ASS!!!

But it is FAR from over. Haaaaaaa ☮️😎
So I have the 2020 ORP 4runner and my dash fuse box inside the cabin doesn’t look like yours. It’s pretty filled with fuses. Any suggestions on where I should plug in my raptor lights? Got them from 4runner lifestyle
Jon, thank you for the video, it was really useful for me, I installed exactly the same way you did with yours, I didn't want to installed in the fuse box under the hood. Is there any way to make them go of during the day without having to unplug the wire?
Very cool install and review. you could have run the red wire into the engine bay fuse box and could have utilized the stock ground in the bay. Either way, great install. I like how they snap right in. I've done zipties and screws and have wished for something this simple for a long time lol
The power wire into the fuse box you did not explain nor show the connection ground is basic , have the TRD PRO 2019 ...Voo Doo Blue ....my kit has been sitting in the box for months now thanks
Yes, on my 2020 TRD Pro, I used the included add a fuse and tied into the head light fuse in the engine compartment fuse box. The Grille lights (I don't call them Raptor lights because this is not a frikken Ford) only come on when I turn the head lights or the high beams on. I did not want them to be on all the time.
Hi Jon. I am installing on a 2020. Do you know what fuse I would tap into in my interior? My 2020 fuse box looks different than the older models. My engine bay INJ fuse is being used by my alpha Rex head lights to run while vehicle is on.
@@TRDJon Is there a DRL fuse to do the replacement with? Your video was severely lacking on the most important part: power and the correct fuse to tap into!
Hey Jon, since you’re really good with all the mod stuff I have a question. I recently put in raptor lights on my ‘21 4Runner venture and the fuse box is completely different. I haven’t been able to figure out where to plug it in without them being on 24/7. So I decided to unplug the add a fuse thing for the time being, but my worry is that now my headlights for the 4Runner will not turn off when I lock the car on the second clicklike they did previously. I didn’t touch anything else so I’m not sure if maybe you have any idea why they’re doing that as well. I can switch the knob inside the car and they turn off, but the somewhat automatic was very nice to have and not think about. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
@@sunshinesnursingjourney7449Why not connect it to your headlights or fog lights. I connected mine to my fog lights; did not use any fuse just tap into the existing fog light wires and works fine.
Thanks for your time Jon. The switch that I’m looking to install has 4 wires (black, red, red, and green). These accessory lights only have one black and one red wire (fuses). I’m sorry it’s just got me confused. 🤷♂️
The red cable going to the fuse box had two fuses. The add a fuse connector and another in the middle... I just put them in sequence and it worked fine. Had to use the engine bay fuse box though Thank you
The best 4Runner Raptor light is NO LIGHT. Raptors need those lights because they are 80 or more inches wide and the law demands it. 4runners are not that wide. New Tundras also require those lights. Don't be a mindless follower please.
Love mine. I actually ran it to a switch so I could turn it off and on as desired. Thanks for vids Jon!
Nice!! Easy enough. Thanks!!
Johnny Potts - interested in how you ran it to a switch and which one? Would love to connect mine like that.

That was a ridiculously easy install. Thanks for the great video Jon! It looks great!
Thanks!! Very easy
Hi Jon just bought these for my 4runner limited and wanted to say it was 10x easier since the fuse box was next to the battery.
I'm doing the same with my limited. I noticed the fuse box next to the battery. Which fuse spot did you plug your lights into??? TY
@@RobertCollins-uq6jbign fuse
Pro tip you should use gaffers tape instead of duct tape for all the things works just as good but doesn’t leave any glue behind. Great vid!
Thanks for the heads up! It was a pain to clean up the wires
I actually like that, looks well designed! gonna put that on my wish list!
They have some for tacos I think too!
@@TRDJon do you have any video recs or fourms that talk about 2020 4runner raptor lights. I have yet to see anyone do it....hoping you can help
I haven’t that silver bar is really in the way. Is it removable ?
I can't install 3 because of the desing. I think 3 lights looks better
I got mine from overland Depot. Super easy install and top quality product.
I am confused on the install part. Where does this extra red wire go attached to the main wire piece?
Just installed 3 amber lights a few days ago. Easy mod. Engine fuse box method. I debated on going with the 4 (snap-in) type but decided I liked the looks of just 3 (screw-in) style.

Thanks and welcome to the channel!!
I’ve had a $50 amazon card since Christmas and I just used it on these. I couldn’t justify it otherwise haha.
Hahaha 😂
Nice looking. Looks very OEM. Going to get these for sure!
What fuse did you replace with the fuse tap? I'm tied into TAIL and they aren't always on
Looks good Jon! Stinks finishing the townhouse and now you can't rent it... Stay safe.
It does suck. Hopefully there is some relief in that stimulus thing. It’s under an LLC so we will be searching. Have a great week!

I am still rocking the ronnie boy raptor lights. 4 lights to me seem weird to 3. But looks so much easier to install.
Yea I love those ones. Just wish he still made then
Received today, installed it. Love it.
What fuse did you add it to? Can you add it to a headlight fuse that way you can have it off until you turn your headlights on?
That may be able to work. I haven't tried that
Yes, that's what I did on my 2020. Grille lights only come on when you turn the headlights on.
Can u put it to have it on when turning on fogs or headlights instead of on all the time? I bought one but couldn't figure that out
Just have to tap into that wire.
Ah ok...i have no idea which wire that is though
A must mod to become a real Overlander.
You need them for all the instagram photos.
Yeah. That’s cool.
I have these and I love em. I get so many comments on em
They are sweet!

I could yes. Just didn’t wanna potentially break that “seal” with the wire.
I have an spod so I don't have this issue, but I've seen people snake it up into the stock hole and use a fuse tap with no issues.
It would be nice if all the aftermarket toys would include the 2010-2013s
I know. Unfortunately the grille is different
These look identical to the overland depot ones I installed last week which were about $20-30 more.
These are more ?
@@TRDJon nope, i meant the Overland Depot ones were more expensive.
What does cycling the key mean? Because mine don’t go off
The power wire into the fuse box you did not explain nor show the connection ground is basic , have the TRD PRO 2019 ...Voo Doo Blue ....my kit has been sitting in the box for months now thanks
I did show it. And that it is a 10mm bolt as well. People have also put them to the engine bay fuse panel as well.
Hi. So the kit came with a 15A fuse, and I should plug it in a 10A socket?!
I dont think it will work if you do
Can you wire these to only turn on when the headlights are turned on, like at night?
Yes, on my 2020 TRD Pro, I used the included add a fuse and tied into the head light fuse in the engine compartment fuse box. The Grille lights (I don't call them Raptor lights because this is not a frikken Ford) only come on when I turn the head lights or the high beams on. I did not want them to be on all the time.
Jon, was there a switch, or do the come on automatically from the fuse you plugged into? Thanks for the video.
Jon, no grommet on the firewall?? No good bud!
I did that step by step but my lights stayed on even with the truck off
How do you wire the lights so they they are only on when the lights are on, and not whenever the ignition is on?
Youd need to splice into that wire or the fuse for the lights I'd bet.
@@TRDJon Taillight fuse worked because it's only on with the parking or headlights.

So cool & easy...thanx!!!
Most welcome 😊
Good video! Now if I can just find them in stock.
Nice! Do they come on soon as you turn the kay to on? I wish there was way to have them come on only with headlight...
Ues
Is it possible to turn on and off the lights using the DRL switch? If yes, do you know how to do it? Thanks for the answers and great videos.
You can but you just need to tap into your DRL wires.
@@TRDJon Is there a DRL fuse to do the replacement with? Your video was severely lacking on the most important part: power and the correct fuse to tap into!
Would you say the brightness or lux factor is purely aesthetic or do they provide some improved lighting at night coupled with the low beams?
Aesthetic only

@@sunshinesnursingjourney7449Why not connect it to your headlights or fog lights. I connected mine to my fog lights; did not use any fuse just tap into the existing fog light wires and works fine.
Was wondering if those pro grill will fit in a trd off-road taco ? 🤔
you prefer these over the ronnieboy fabrication ones you had before?
Yes. For the price and ease of install I would now recommend these over those
Question. Can u install or get the trd grill for the offroad premium? I'm looking to get a 2020 off road but I really like the trd pro grill
yes you can
Hey john i purchase the item same as yours i have a problem on my fuse box the set up it’s different and only one slot available i had the 2020 sr5
Any recommendations for the little puddle lights on the side mirrors?
I don’t have those on mine. I wanna add them though.
Hmmm wonder if there are Tacoma ones!
Check out their store. I’m sure if not amazon will have some related
Do they broadcast light? Or are they for show?...
Mainly for show
What happened to the drz off road light bar? I was thinking about buying one. Did you have any issues
It's still behind it haha. That's how stealth they are. No issues!
Blue TRD Jon just saw it looks great! Might have to do both these!
I just love the stealth looks
woah awesome! but how do you turn them on and off?
They automatically come on when you cycle the key
So are they on whenever the car is on? Or only when the lights are on?
Since these are always on when the truck is on, won’t they die fairly quickly? How long do these kinda lights usually last?
No Idea honestly . The are LED so I mean they should last a decent while.
Does it matter if the 4 runner has 3 or 4 raptor lights? I tend to see more with 3, or is it just user preference?
User preference
Will that fit on 2015 limited?
Should if you have the proper grille
That company make anything like that for 2020 tacoma?
I'm not sure. But it may be in the related if you follow the amazon link.
How are they holding up
They were good when I took them off
@@TRDJon how long did you run them, thanks for the feed back
Awesome these say 2014-19 I’m assuming these will work also on a 2020 pro?
yep 👍🏼
TRD JON awesome thanks
water is def going to get into the hole in the firewall.
Hasn't yet. I have it plugged up though after the wire went through
So why not just splice another piece of ground wire to the short piece shrink wrap it and use the ground in engine bay?
You can 100% however I wanted to install it as the system came for the viewers to show flaws of the system.
Thanks for the video, can these be installed on the Tacoma?
They have taco specific ones I believe. Or check out running for tacos RUclips. They have a website with similar ones for the Tacoma.
@@TRDJon cool thanks
How do you turn it on and off ? Switch ?
Will this fit my factory grill for 4R SR5 2011 ?
They come on by cycling your key
How did you put the fuse cover back on?
you can't. I just put it in my glove box for reference
Would these fit on a 2021 Toyota 4Runner SR5 premium?
they should yes, but you do have that siler bar up front making it difficult
Hey Jon, do these lights run constantly or can you turn them off and on?
Constantly on.
Option of running 3 instead of 4?
Yea just plug in 3 instead of 4. I’d put electrical tape over the other connector though
Do you think I could unplug two of them and install them on a sr5 grill?
Yes you should be able to
Do they obstruct your drz light bar?
Just a little on the upper one.
@@TRDJon planning to pull the trigger on the stealth upper light bar (cause I have a 2020) and really like those too. Could you rock both?
Why would you put those lights in a 4Runner?
No sure why it’s a trend for these. But people like em so these are an option.
Any for TRD off road or will these work ?
These will work
Hi, does those fit my 2021 Toyota 4Runner?
as long as that silver bar isn't in the way
@@TRDJon thank you 🙏
What’s the best way to wire this to a switch?
It depends on your switch. Should just be positive to positve and I believe they will have their own ground.
Thanks for your time Jon. The switch that I’m looking to install has 4 wires (black, red, red, and green). These accessory lights only have one black and one red wire (fuses). I’m sorry it’s just got me confused. 🤷♂️
It should be one of the reds but I have no clue to be 100%
Maybe I missed it, but why did you remove your ditch lights?
The lights themselves were starting to rust with the hardware that was provided
@@TRDJon
That's crap.
Thanks for the reply on this Jon.
No worries man!
Can this be done on the SR5? Or does it have to be the TRD Pro Grille?
Yes it can.
I have an sr5. I chose the 3 light option. Not from this company but they have 3 and 4 light options.
Why can’t you use the fuse box under the hood?
You can
Another raptor light video?
Another option for those in the market for them.
What do you mean by "cycle your key"? Sorry, newb to Toyo modding.
Also, you think these would work on a 2020 4Runner TRD Pro?
They would work. And by literally turning the car one, they come on.
I don't do Amazon, only Ebay
There's another fuse, should I connect them together?
What do you mean?
The red cable going to the fuse box had two fuses. The add a fuse connector and another in the middle... I just put them in sequence and it worked fine. Had to use the engine bay fuse box though
Thank you
Alex Mejia I have this same problem. Which fuse did you use in the engine bay box. Did you also do anything to the cover for the fuse box?
What do you mean with flip the fuse?
Nice easy mod.
Beyond easy
Would this work for a 2020?
Yes
how many amps did you use?
Honestly I didn’t look. Should be 10
the link was for tacoma not a 4runner
Amazon must have changed it then.
This is definitely a mod that I just don't get.
Yea idk why it’s popular for the 4runner. I guess a lot of people just like it
The Amazon link takes me to a Ford Raptor - Yikes
One person on amazon said these will not fit the 2020s so disappointed!!!
If you have a heritage grille it will fit
Blue TRD Jon oh for real! I have a 20 trd pro that I’m going to get these for! Thanks for the info!!!!
@@user-yr4ug1rm1k No worries!
"Flipped the fuse around because it was in backwards" Hmmmm
Are these street legal?
Yes they are
Thanks, I appreciate your videos
If you’re not using zip ties to tie the wires together, you’re doing it wrong.
The best 4Runner Raptor light is NO LIGHT. Raptors need those lights because they are 80 or more inches wide and the law demands it. 4runners are not that wide. New Tundras also require those lights. Don't be a mindless follower please.
Will they fit a 2021 4runner?
