    Looking for matching amber fogs and ditch lights with DRL option.

    Anyone have any photos and recommendations?

    Not looking for high end or low end random Amazon ones. I'm not doing any high speed runs, just need extra lighting for certain situations like taking fire roads or driving in the mountains.

    Would love if they have a drl setting for the bling factor.

    Diode Dynamics SS3's for the win! I went for clear on the ditch lights and amber on the fogs for my application. Also, went with the DD SSC2 reverse lights as well. I ordered all of mine from @memario1214 at Hotshot Offroad.

    I'm sold based on all the same replies lol

    Looking at the website I found the Elite fogs and saw a video. I like the sharp cutoff on those.

    Can you pm me a quote for elite series amber fogs, ss3 pro amber ditch lights with low profile mounts? Zip code 91344. Do I need anything else for installation?

    Sure thing. Only question will be if you want an OEM style switch to fill one of the switch blanks, or if you hade the trigger/wiring to do another way.

    I'm at work. I went out to look at my truck and didn't see any empty blanks. Ideally that's what I would want, an oe style switch.

    Currently I don't have a need for a multi switch panel but may eventually need one so I need to research it tonight when I get home.

    So for now just on the lights.

    Tundras are notorious for loose fog light housings, which leads to fog light bounce. I tightened them up while installing the amber Elites using the following instructions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOIgb1AX50Y

    If you decide you NEED a multi switch panel you could consider something like my install with a Switch-Pros SP9100 (8 switches) mounted on the fuse box lid with a PowerTrays standoff mount. Not cheap stuff, but "buy once cry once" and hopefully you get what you pay for.

    Bought the elite and SS3 pros in amber last night.

    What's a singular circuit I can tap into for the backlit option to be on at all times except when the switch is set to off. Basically I want the backlit on including when the switch is set to Auto. But I do want to be able to turn them off so I don't want constant 12v with ignition on.

    Is there a fuse for running lights in the kick panel fuse?

    I'd recommend returning the Elites and buying these fog lights.
