  • Today I'm running you through how to install LED Lights, or Raptor Style lights on my 2019 Toyota Tacoma TRD OFF Road, the same process is true for all 2016-2020, 3rd Gen Tacomas with the TRD PRO Grilles. I went with a Add-a-fuse for the installation, which I had to purchase separately from a local auto parts store.

    Thank you sir for actually showing how you wired up the lights and not skipping that part. I had a few ideas myself but i like the add a fuse method a lot more than tying into the headligths.

    Thank you so much for this!! My instructions from CaliRaisedLED had me putting it into the wrong fuse. Which would keep showing the check engine light. Well done sir! It’s all complete now on my 2022 Tacoma TRD Pro Electric Lime in the 6-speed manual 😎

      The headlight switch, since he has them wired into the headlight fuse. They can’t be switched on by themselves. They can be wired that way; but it’s not how he did it here.

      Mine came out with 15amp as well but I’ve heard you are supposed to use a smaller number on top like a 5 amp and the fuse you took off you put it on the bottom of the add a fuse.
