Hey mate, I installed the LED's in my driving lights a couple of days ago. Fan bloody tastic. Such an improvement brighten up the road ahead and sides on my early morning trip to work. Thank you for your tips. Frank
while following your instructions for installing the hathlights I improvised a couple improvements to the install that makes it much easier. 1) by the fishing the harness that goes down the passenger side c-piller down from above to the factory light opening. then you don't need to pry those trim pieces loose to do the power hookup. And, 2) spraying silicon lubricant on the harness makes it much easier to slide through the rubber gromet at the top of the rear hatch area.
Dish soap, 11 inch zip tie and electrical tape helped me a lot to get through the grommets I lubed up zip tie even some on the tape and more on the wire sleeve wasn't shy took ounce I saw the zip tie atbthe other end just pull and it was through no problem these lights so freaking bright great edition
Toyota has fixed most of these lighting issues. My 2024 Rav 4 already has LED interior lights and LED fog lights. My model also has a wireless phone charger as standard.
Thank you for watching and I've actually got some blacked out rain guards that I will be adding as soon as it warms up a little which will be on my next top 5 video!!!
Ours is same as yours but I gotta say that Blueprint color might be my favorite if I could choose - which I could not as we could not find a new one and had to buy slightly used but at NEW prices LOL@@GaryCantrell
Fair question, honestly I don’t know. For what it’s worth these mods have been installed for 2 years now and I’ve not run into a single issue. Everything in the video is plug and play and can be removed in case a service tech didn’t want to service it because of the mods. I haven’t personally had anyone at Toyota deny me service.
Does the charger base also provide wireless car play? A popular addition from other videos is wireless car play. A component that added that plus the usb c port would be great...
Thank you for watching!! Sadly it does not do wireless CarPlay. There is a dongle I tried on Amazon but didn’t personally care for the wireless aspect. I prefer to be hard wired and have my phone out of my sight so I’m not tempted to use it while driving.
Just want to save people time here. If you have a 2024 Hybrid XSE (maybe others?) the lighting is built into the PCB boards so you can not do an interior lighting upgrade.
Ich bin nicht ganz anderer Meinung. Ich denke, die Tatsache, dass wir auf RUclips nach Mods suchen, bedeutet, dass das Fahrzeug, das wir haben, nicht alles hat, was wir wollen. Ich denke, die Lichter sollten zum Beispiel LED-Standard sein, aber sie sind es nicht. Um es kurz zu machen, ich denke, Toyota hat einiges zu tun, aber im gleichen Atemzug sage ich, dass ich denke, dass sie einige der zuverlässigsten Fahrzeuge sind, die man heute kaufen kann! Wie auch immer, vielen Dank, dass Sie sich mein Video angesehen haben. ;)

Got the dash cam and the trunk light thx for the recommendation. Plus I just noticed you park where I work

This video deserves more views and likes. Great video! Just subscribed
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
👍🏾🍷Thanks sharing Brotha. I’m about to purchase the RAV4 as my first car.
Thanks for sharing how to add the back additional lights. Are you going to put on the black tire skins and the overlay on the lights?
Great finds, thanks for sharing. Very good video and great links 👍
Thank you for watching!!!!
Nice work dude ☮️
Thank you for watching!!
Toyota has fixed most of these lighting issues. My 2024 Rav 4 already has LED interior lights and LED fog lights. My model also has a wireless phone charger as standard.
I'd black out the chrome above the windows , your Rav4 is sweet and it would be a great look for it.
Thank you for watching and I've actually got some blacked out rain guards that I will be adding as soon as it warms up a little which will be on my next top 5 video!!!
Would love a video on how you installed the front dash cam!
Thank you for watching and for the suggestion and I will try and get one made. Thanks!!!
Love your videos 📹
Thank you for watching!!
Great tips, Video and resources. Thanks mate. Love it.
Thank you for the kind words and for watching!!!
Good stuff Gary, well explained, thank you very much. Manny
Thank you so much for watching!!
Bless you Gary. Hope you enjoy the ride
Thank you so much for watching!!! I love the RAV!!
Can you show how you installed it
Great video! Huge thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for watching!!
I loved this... nice one!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!!
1st upgrade I did was hood struts
I have those as well and will feature in the next edition of this series. They are very helpful! Thanks for watching!!
wireless android Auto and Apple Carplay is a must have upgrade if you ask me.
I tried it and it wasn't for me but I know a few people that have them and like it! Thanks for watching!!
Did you change the base headlights to the hybrid ones ?
I have the XLE hybrid model so whatever came installed on it is what I got. Is there a cool upgrade I don't know about!?!?!?! Thanks for watching!!!!!
That colour suits the car very well 👍
Thank you!! It is by far my favorite of the colors for this car.
Ours is same as yours but I gotta say that Blueprint color might be my favorite if I could choose - which I could not as we could not find a new one and had to buy slightly used but at NEW prices LOL@@GaryCantrell
great mods!
Thank you!!!
Looks like Nick Anyonyan 😂 very cool video tho 👍🏻
Thanks for watching!!!
Definitely black out the badges and k&n filter was a must for my magnetic gray rav4
I do have the blackout badges and I’ll check out K&N. Thank you for watching!!!
You have a great looking car love the color you need to get black rims for your RAV4
I want them badly, not in the budget yet! Thanks for watching!!
@@GaryCantrell they sell black wheel skins on ebay for like $90
Can any of these mods void your warranty if they short something out just food for thought…

Will the wireless charger platform thing’s USBC connect to AppleCarPlay?
Unfortunately no it does not.
And wheel skins for the XLE!!
I've been meaning to check them out! Thanks for watching!
You should add a center console safe. Only $25. Definitely a cooler upgrade than lights.
I will definitely check it out! Always looking for cool things to do with the Rav. Thanks for the heads up and thank you for watching!!!!
Nice !
Thank you!!!
nice tatt buddy
Thanks!!
aus erfahrung mit meinem rav4 phev plugin hybrid kann ich sagen technik top, verarbeitung seeeehr schlecht!!!!.
