4th Gen Hood x Tundra Ditch Light Bracket? Yep.

There is an extensive amount of info on ditch light brackets here on the forums, but I haven't seen anyone point this out yet - us 4th gen guys have another bracket option!

For all that don't know -- there are two main options, cowl and hood - mounted options. The former requiring the unbolting of the fender, propping of the hood, and an extra hand (or hood prop), and the latter requiring... a socket wrench.

To my knowledge, there were three major contenders in the 4th gen bracket world - CBI, Rago, and SDHQ, all nicely built, powdercoated black, and (roughly) the same price.

Here were my personal opinions on all of them:
CBI- Not only are they cowl mounted, but they stick out to the side further than the rest.
Rago- Hood mounted, but very high profile when compared to the rest.
SDHQ- Hood mounted, best finish, low-profile...but almost twice the $$$$$!

So I kept looking.... And found a couple threads over on TW stating how a lot of guys were running Cali Raised brackets. Quick boogie over to their website, annnnnd... nothing for us 4th gen guys. Or so I thought

THE 2014-20 Tundra Ditch Brackets FIT!

Disclaimer: I never would have thought these would be the right bracets, but Jason over at @Caliraisedled reccomended me these, and he was 100% correct that they are the way to go.
Respectively inexpensive, hood-mounted, nice looking, coated well, and LOW PROFILE.

Figured I'd share so other 4th gen guys know what's out there. I did add one washer on the back-most bolt to lower it even more, more pics over on my build thread HERE.
