    I put these on my tractor this winter. So I can't comment about high speed driving, but they are really phenomenal lights. Even during the day, they make the reflectors on guard rails/road signs light up half a mile away. I feel bad having them on in the morning going out to plow, feels like I will wake up the whole neighborhood.

    Thanks. This may be the best sounding exhaust I've heard, I will probably be getting it soon.

    Where did you mount the lights? Did you wire up with a separate switch? Thinking about adding a set to my tractor

    I have a cab on mine, since I use it 50-60% of the time to clear snow. So I removed the old lights off the cab and just wired them directly into the existing wires and it works with the old switch. By doing the easy instal, I removed a "hi/low" option by doing and I just have them blasting when they go on now. It was a fair trade in my mind as if I want them on, I want them on all the way. I would recommend the "flood/spot" combo light. I had one of those and one spot, and the flood/spot throws light somewhat significantly better. In this photo, the flood/spot is on the right side, the spot only is on the left. After I tested them out I got rid of the spot only. Also they have very nice side light to let you see around the tractor. I have some cheaper chinese ones on the back that will be getting replaced with another set of these in a few months. They are just so bright it makes the ones I used in the rear look like halogen.

    Well, I've got a shortened down story about this truck I bought a few weeks back.

    image_1.jpg

    After a unforseen/sketchy issue arrived about the truck, from the DMV and me seeking some legal advice, I'm no longer the owner. The dealership had to basically buy it back from me. That's pretty much all I can say

    So, with that said, I was on the search for another tundra. I looked at a few, but couldn't really find something I'd be happy with. Good things come to those who wait and are patient. I've got a neighbor who is a older fellow that had a 2020 limited double cab 4wd that he bought brand new. I was doing yard work Tuesday evening and he came over to talk, as usual. We'll he ask what happened to my new to me Tundra, he hadn't seen it in a few days, so I told him the same thing as above. He starts talking about trying to trade his truck for another brand new one, he keeps truck until they hit 100k miles, but the dealerships wouldn't give him what he thought they should on trade. I ask what they were offering and I offered him $3500 more than they were offering, he took it.

    So, here is my "new to me" truck.
    2020 Limited double cab 4wd in Cement.

    It had this Leer topper on it, it is for sale. Color matched perfectly.

    Well - i have an SR - and wanted to put Fog lamps - bought kit realized already had wiring. Then saw I needed the SR-5 light switch. Bought it, installed it and they still don't work. Also failed to do the spring clock correctly - so I'll have to replace that. Any suggestions on the foglamps? The lamp on dash works!

    If there is factory wiring make sure there is a relay installed in the under hood fuse box.

    S2’s for the new rear update. New billet flush mount brackets should be here soon. And rear suspension parts allegedly Monday. We’ll see if that’s true.

    Well the kit from @iHacker was great, truly plug and play. Went with option 1, everything fit perfectly and definitely quality parts. So original headlights removed again and Toyota ones installed.20250808_181425.jpg 20250809_125139.jpg

    Threw the bedrug back in and installed it correctly this time; cleaned and removed the bed track...while I was at it, I threw in @mattgecko 's bed light kit that shifts from red/white...it'll work well with my topper kit from him, too, thats red...oh, while I was at it, again, I installed the topper back on...I'm "ready" for my annual roadtrip, now.
