    Heads up.

    Every bulb I’ve purchased from HR has died or had issues.
    Every bulb.


    I replaced every single oem bulb on my ‘16 with HR.
    Had to replace them all again after HR.
    Little to no assistance from HR.

    Yeah, it is a monster. Hopefully removing that bottom plate will help. We’ll see!

    I have that exact one! It stay on when you open the doors. The only time it shuts off is if you push the lock button 3x after starting it; or you let 5 minutes go by.

    My switchback blinkers did work, just not as advertised.
    They’ve changed the description since.

    Hopefully, yours will last.

    I thought the reverse bulb would be the least likely to fail.
    Walked out one day and one of them was literally hanging by a wire.
    It was still plugged in, but the guts had fallen out.

    Just looked and yeah both times they were 921. I just went with the description (reverse bulb) and says will fit Tundra. I'll probably go with the Alla Lighting, not a bad price.

    Edit: ordered from Lasfit instead, $23 shipped is not bad.

    Check the build link in my signature.
    Wrapped up the install on my rolling cover - got the drain tubes installed. While I was punching holes in the sides of the bed, I drilled the holes for the bed lights too. But those won’t get installed until the weekend after Christmas when I hope to do a bunch of stuff.

    Pics tomorrow... time for bed.

    That is because you are ordering the wrong bulbs.


    Same here..
    Most lasted less than 1 month.
    Although they replaced the faulty bulbs, it was a PITA.

    The bulbs I bought from HR have VERY THIN contacts that break VERY easily from the normal vibrations of any vehicle.

    I like Sirius or ALLA led bulbs, both can usually be found on Amazon.
    Sometimes I order Sirius directly.

    I used Jdmastar reverse bulbs and brake light bulbs and they work great. Super bright, especially with my tinted tail light lenses. I bought them off Amazon.

    Put on the AJT design radio knobs. I like how the light shines through on this new version.

    Is most of the HR product just rebranded junk sold at premium prices? They do a good job at marketing it.

    Yep.
    Their install videos are helpful, though.

    These were the OEM wheels that came on my '18 TRD Off Road SR5. Suspension: Bilstein 6112's set at 2.5" and 5100's rear with an Icon Mini-Pack leaf addition. I liked this tire so much, I didn't hesitate to order the same for my new truck. Good road manners at 40 psi, and I think are a good fit for our long, ice/snow winters.

    Yeah, MGM is where it's at! I have a 2.5 inch spacer in the front (made by Daystar) and 1.5 inch block in the back (not sure of manufacturer on that though) which allowed me to keep the original shocks and springs. The shop that did the work does high quality stuff and they've done all my suspension work for my trucks and jeeps and never have had an issue. This is the first time getting spacers (vs new suspension) but I trust their recommendation that this will work perfectly fine for what I use it for (mainly on road with some light/medium trail riding here and there). At some point I wouldn't mind upgrading to a nicer suspension lift for it. Although it actually rides really nice. Glad you like it. It was exactly the look I wanted to and the shop nailed it. Super happy with it!

    What about trucks with push button start? My understanding is no remote start kit will allow the truck to stay running if you open the door and have push button start.

    According to 12v solutions website the push button start will still shut off when you unlock or open door.

    That's what I was a-scared of. Dang it! I'm guessing all kits have this limitation for push button start trucks.
