LED rock lights

Well im really liking these things so i was wondering

Who has them?
What brand are you using?
How many 4 or 8?
Did you connect them straight to your battery since they are controlled from your phone?
Add a fuse ?

Well please let me know im wanting to order some ASAP

 

see my post in

Checked it out looks good. Why didnt u put lights in the actual wheel well?

 

I’m going to be getting new rims/ tires and wasn’t sure where I wanted to place them .

I might move them later . The Bluetooth is very iffy sometimes on the ones I have.

 

Thanka for the input. If bluetooth is iffy how the heck are we suppost to turn them on lol. Ill stay away from these then

 

If I had to get different ones , they would be switched and not bluetooth.

I dont rock crawl and mine are for the kids to eww and ahh at ...

 

There’s lots of different companies selling the rock lights now. No matter what brand you go with you need to have a fuse shortly after the main power wire. You also need to have a relay after that and then the switch after that. It’s not as complicated as it seems though. Most of the kits will include a wire harness with all of that. You also need to decide if you want one color or an rgb(red green blue) that allows you to change to any color you want. Most of the rock lights start at 4 lights and go up to 12 lights. There are some great 4 light kits now days for not a lot of money and super bright. I’m running four lights on mine but there not your typical light output either. I hope that helps answer your questions.

 

Thanka for the info im eyein the oracle rock light kit. Comes with 8 light and not priced to badly. I was definetly going to add a fuse but never thought about a relay.

 

I got a set for free from a friend. They're China specials. I've got 4, 1 in each wheel well. It's hooked to a relay on my fuse box setup. You could just buy a light bar wiring harness and hook it up to that. That will have a relay switch and fuse.
Whatever you do atleast fuse it.
They've been on the truck for over a year now and through one winter only cheap lights I've owned that havnt filled with water.

I am not a fan of the terrible Bluetooth controller. When I get time I'll cut the controller out and hookup one with a physical remote. They look cool, they don't really help me work at night but they look cool lol.

 

I dont rock crawl either. Ita for the big kid in me and well ofcourse my 3 boys would like it also.

 

It makes my girlfriend roll her eyes, so thats another reason to have them.

 

Opt7 just released these Rgb rock lights. What’s cool is they have lighting going both directions and they are RGB. The connnectors are nice since they are direct plug in.

 

Of course they did ....

 

Price is good also but i dont see any output pics. I do like that it has a remote and if im not mistaken they come so we can connect to our doors.

 

This looks like more than four lights to me on the tundra with green lighting.

 

Thanka for posting that. I stay away from social media so i had no idea about those pictures

 

I was reading their instructions and it says CAUTION pods get very hot dont mount on plastic. Dont ppl.mount these to the splash guards/wheel liner?

 

group buy?

 

Sure start1 up and im in

 

I don’t know if they will sell much cheaper. I believe they are coming straight from China already.

 

Sorry for resurrecting an old thread, but did anyone ever get/install these Opt7’s? Wondering how well they work and how easy the install is. Can any old buffoon do it?

 

Rock lights are pretty easy to install, just a matter of keeping the wires safe and away from moving parts and the exhaust pipes. I would recommend connecting the control box to the battery and playing with the placement of the light in the front and rear wheel wells prior to fully mounting. I used a portable battery jump box to power my controller box and held the light in different locations to see how the light spread and how the shadows looked.
24 rock lights and 3 control boxes latter my truck looks like this

 

I think you need more lights. lol

 

I really do! I dont like the dark spot in the middle below the front bumper.

 

I think another 24 rocklights should do it.

 

Just got mine installed. LOVE THEM. 16 total. They are RGB, but look awesome in all white. Brand is PlashLight

 

Can you guys post some pics of where in the wheel well you mounted them? It looks like there’s a perfect spot towards the outside so you’d never be able to see the light itself but I am worried that it won’t throw any light out from that location.

 

ill see if I can snag a pic this afternoon.. for the most part, theyre in the centerline of the wheel well
