MattGecko LED Bed & Hood light kits

@mattgecko do you have a pic of the blue or uv black lights mounted?

 

Hi Angel.

I have a picture of the UV black light but not the blue.

 

I've never used UV light before, is this still functional is used while camping at night, or more for a killer look?
Plan is still to order up a couple sets for our new Tundra,... just life got in the way momentarily.

 

Awesome! thank you

 

I'm looking for something that isn't going to totally blind me in the middle of nowhere dark. Red, blue (depending on brightness) and the uv black tend to not mess with night vision as much as white light....normally in that order too...not matter what it messes with your vision.

 

Yeah, when I've used my previous light... while I could see in the bed perfect, I wouldn't see anything outside of the bed lol.
Maybe I'll end up trying UV or something this go around.

 

I do offer a remote that can turn on/off, dim and strobe the lights. Yes the white lights are nice and bright.

 

That's awesome. I think I'm leaning towards the blue...need to think on this a little more. I know I'll be getting them...just not sure which ones yet. and j think a remote will be in order too lol

 

No problem. Blue would be a special order and take 3 weeks as I would have to order the lights, I would just request a $20 deposit.

 

@Krezz my boy!!

Hi Kevin

 

dear diary...

 

lol

 

Kev,
Don't be a smartass She's cooler than both of us......

 

lmao that was supposed to be me writing in my journal sorry.

Most people are cooler than me, such is just fact lol

 

I know. I laughed out loud, and the rest of the campground got pissed!!

@mattgecko
I think I just made a couple sales for you in the "remote" campsite I found.

 

Writing about what is the question....hence the look given

 

That a RL internet gurl said hello to me.

 

I'm sure it's a first for you, but I'm a "fixer".....I look out for my boyz!!

That gurl (@4x4_Angel ) ain't too shabby either, aye?

 

LOL is that strange??

 

@mattgecko , If I wire these up under the factory rails now, then in a couple of months install a tonneau cover that requires the rails to be dropped down using brackets, am I going to have issues? Should I just wait until after I install the tonneau?

 

I can answer this....you will have no issues lowering your rails. Just don't fix the slack until after you've lowered them. Get them! It's a solid investment for the price....if you use your bed in the dark

 

Not sure what you mean by fix the slack because I'm not sure how the wiring is ran on these, but I definitely plan on getting them. I figure they should light the bed up nicely once I have a tonneau installed.

 

There is a little slack in the corners between LED strips. The entire assembly is done for you and he gives you enough slack in the corners in case you have a little finagling to do. The slack provisions are stick on pieces the you zip tie to the clips. You'll see what I mean when you get them. If I remember I'll take a pic in the morning for you

 

If you installed them now, be sure to leave extra slack on the wire harness connecting the light strips together. This is in the corners where the the side strip and center are.
