Install rigid backup lights

Has anyone done this?

 

No but I am looking at the Diode Dynamics plug and play kit below:

2022-2024 Toyota Tundra Backup LED Light Kit | Diode Dynamics

I am debating between the SSC1 Pro and SSC2 Pro.

The reason being is I have the bed step and I am not sure if the SSC2's will hit the step once mounted as they are wider?

 

What about them? I have Rigids in my rear bumper on my 2020.

 

Those would get ripped off so fast when driving over anything that isn't pavement.

Doesn't look possible to turn off the red accent light either. That is just plain ugly, but I do like the plug and play aspect.

 

Id recommend the Baja Designs hitch pod instead. DO NOT GET THE DD POD....I had it and its WEAK af...the BD blew it out of the water

 

What if you're specifically using backup lights to see while using a trailer? I use a trailer like 3x a week. I know Baja is nice, but do they have another way to mount a plug and play Tundra light?

 

They have a similar setup to DD but looks like its tucked up higher.

For a permanent install, I would use these...mounted directly to the bumper so theyre out of harms way when wheelin

@Baja Designs where do I send my 1099 info for a commission?

 

I've got a Rigid Ignite flush-mount kit that I will be installing this weekend.

 

Hey @JBronius,

With consisting adding some back up lights to the rig. Baja Designs has a few options that we have available that are either a universal option or we have a Hitch mount kit that will be plug and play utilizing our S1 as @eddiefromcali has mention.

We offer our S1 and S2 lights in a universal option, so if you're looking for higher-mounted lighting, there are several companies that make bed mounts compatible with AUX lights. Our S1 hitch mount kit is a plug-and-play solution that comes with either a toggle switch or a trailer hitch harness. Depending on your needs, we have a variety of options, including different lenses, to help you achieve the optimal light spread.

If you interested in more information about one of the options we offer please feel free to reach out and I can help you get dialed.

Best,
Bill

Not a 3rd Gen, but sharing for inspiration. These are Rigid flush mounts that are wired to the rear cargo light switch instead of reverse lights.

 

I had Rigid SR-Q PRO flush mount lights installed on my 2023 Tundra. I used a wiring harness I purchased from Diode Dynamics to hook them up to the trailer hitch wiring, pretty much plug and play after cutting the plastic bumper cover to fit the SR-Q's.

Pete is the only person to mention a switch. How do you switch them on?

 

@Baja Designs Any forum discount codes?

 

They come on automatically when I put the truck in reverse, which is what I wanted. I am sure that if someone wanted to have a switch, they would just have to wire it up that way.

 

I really like his idea. Never thought of that.

 

Hey @The Dutch Man,

Shoot me a PM and I can get you a quote going with a forum special.

Best,
