Has Anyone Tried These Raptor Lights?
 

I found them via Google, and they seem to be the nicest option aside from the giant add-a-fuse sticking out of the fuseblock.

Those new screw in style lights are legit...that guy on IG sells tons of them with great feedback. I like no more zip ties as well.

Just curious, these look pretty cool, but do they offer any utility beyond looks?

Don't worry about your fuseblock and wire it yourself. If you know how to crimp, zip-tie, and poke a hole in the firewall, you're good to go.

It took me a little longer than a pre-made harnes, but when I was done, it was way more fulfilling knowing I didn't pay 100+ for a harness I could make myself.

Not really...just cool factor! More crap for us drug addicts to throw money at because we cannot accept Ford Raptor owners out pissing us.

Would love to source the lights only. As user above stated, paying 100+ for these wiring harnesses is silly considering how easy it is to wire up.

Bought all the materials for doing it the right way for only 50 dollars and I did that so I would have more material for future projects (flex loom, 2 colors of primary wire etc)

The lights I bought were actually to big to even put through the grille holes so mine are kinda ghetto rigged out in front lol. Looks ok since I made sure the zip ties are evenly balanced but would love to replace with screw ins if the price is right

I've researched this as well. It's really not hard to do this mod and the parts are relatively cheap and easy to acquire.

With that being said, yes you are paying a premium for his product. His lights are milled to fit the CNC brackets that he makes for the kits, the wiring is done very neatly, they are modular (you can add or delete lights as you need) and he includes a switch for you to turn the lights on and off as you like. I'm not in any way affiliated with him, I've just looked into his product as well as the other options (the 3-D printed ones with the circular lights, for example). If you want something that is pretty much custom, easy to install, with less hassle and is pretty nice, it's a good option

I guess if you're getting eye level and 2 feet away from your grille they look good. Otherwise the way the top pic is is exactly how I have mine and have no desire to change.

Dremeled out the sides so I can flush mount from behind. Used some shrink wrap on the ends like most do, and zip tied. Wired up with material I already had and it was like a $15 mod.

Amber marked lights are required in some states for vehicles that are over 80” wide.
The raptor is 83” wide, and you’ll see them on duallies too, although often on the roof.

Which is why some people think they look absurd on a 66” wide 4Runner

I was looking into buying new marker lights that would sit flush with the grill instead of sitting out front. I couldn't find any with the exception of the ones being sold on IG for $130 which to me is too steep for something I put together for $30 worth of amazon products. So I took a closer look at the lights the guy was selling to see if I could tell which brand they were so I can buy some online and replace my current ones. The closer I looked the more I swore it looked like he just dremels out the plastic on the edges of the Grand General lights and shrink wraps them so they look clean and fit flush. That's this weekends project.

Very clean lights. I wouldn't do that stupid add a fuse instead I'd probably wire them off of the running lights with a nice relay. Being LEDs you probably wouldn't even need a relay. Pricey option but nice

Yeah I’m not sure why anyone goes the add-a-fuse path. Tap into the running lights and you’re good to go, no relay or fuse needed. You could run a switch if u wanted to but I wouldn’t.

Rock Creek Overland had a pretty good write up on a DIY version of these ....

Here's a thread on with some T4R users that have done this as well ...

I think this is the LED most people used ... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...7ccde5f861ef50

If you didn't want to go the zip tie route a bolt & nut with a large washer behind the grille would do the trick (which I think some T4R user's did).

76”, not 66”.

I'm more interested in the brackets and hardware to mount the lights, using zip-ties is a definite no-go for me. The harness is just a bonus, but even then I'd change it to not use the add-a-fuse.
