I am ready for the next group buy
2 SL 4" Flood pattern
1 Trek Pod XT 25 degree (I think)
Mounted in front of the grill on the bumper it should give me all the front lighting needed.
Maybe a 6.5 SL flood for the back.
At least this is my initial thoughts

Plans for lighting always start out as nice and reasonable, but they quickly tend to grow out of hand haha.

When I get my rear bumper and swing out I want to mount a single light right above the tire as a reverse and camp light. Similar to this setup.
I originally wanted a Rigid Dually with diffused lens but not too excited about paying the price tag.
What single light would you suggest for this application? I like the 4" SL led bar you have because it's pretty slim, but I'm not sure if a flood pattern and normal lens is going to be enough to disperse the light the way I'm looking for. Thanks for any help!
BTW, Welcome to the boards. You seem a lot more stable than the last lights vendor we had lol.

I tried unstable. Didn't suit me well.
Thanks for the welcome!
I'd recommend the flood beam 4" TrekLight XT.
The photo below shows the spot beam (sorry for the crappy photo- you can't see it, but the light is shining on that building down in the distance).
If mounted over a tire in flood pattern, you'd have an excellent camping/reverse light.

I have spent the last week drilling Troy with questions. He is always quick to come back and answer them for me. I made my order with him and bought 2 4" XT flood bars and a 18" XT spot bar. If his lights are anywhere close to his customer service then I'm sure I will be more than happy with his products! I'll do a write-up on them in a couple of months (out of town for now) when I get them installed. Thanks for everything Troy!

If you are offering wiring kits, you ought to look into the rocker switches that fit directly into our switch openings. They also fit in many other Toyota vehicles. You can find them at the links below. This might give you an extra edge of appeal to the Toyota Forums. Good luck!
