LED Light Bars & Pods
- Thread starter treklights
- Start date
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!

Starting to gear up:
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!

i'm becoming interested, who's got one of the longer bars mounted up on an ARB? (preferably 3rd gen) thinking of ditching the hellas and replacing with a single LED bar, the pricing is finally starting to look right.!
I have an ARB on the front of my 4runner for now. I am going to put the 18" in the middle on the top bar and the 2 4" lights on the corner upper bar as well. The arb bumper is a temp bumper though. I'll be building a bumper for it soon... hopefully!

I've got a 30" on the top of my ARB. It's not from treck lights though. The main reason I went with the bar I did was 1) Locally from a good friend so I got the hook up and 2) Has a versatile mounting system where the mounting brackets slide in a rail on the back of the housing, then tighten. This allowed me to mount it wherever I want, thus why it is where it is with no extra mounting fabrication. It's a good representation of what it would look like though if you got one up there.
If no mounting points on these lights line up with the existing holes you could always make some kind of bracket (flat steel) that bolts to the existing tabs on the arb and then mount your light on the bracket. That's what I did with my 10" I use to have.
Keep in mind that any kind of light will most likely obstruct opening and closing your hood. It depends how deep the housing is and how far the light sits back. My bug guard hits the one I have. If I didn't have the bug guard I'd be ok.

Those are old photos.. I've since then sold the hellas. I actually just recently bought a pair of fog pattern 4 cree led pods from a place called www.okledledlightbars.com. The owner is a member on TacomaWorld. They're 2180 lumens each. I'm going to wrap the lenses with yellow vinyl

Still working this one out.
Haven't found a solution I like enough to build mass quantities of.
At the very least, I'll be shipping a rocker switch and fuse holder with each light.

Waiting for my OEM to give me some more documentation on those lights. I've pulled the line while I'm waiting.
If I put them back up, I'll let you guys know.
Sorry if that put a damper on your plans
BTW, your lights should be at my doorstep by Tuesday.
If the hanma group buy continues at the end of the month I'll probably try a $30 cheapie 2x6 from them. At this point I'm not sure if my idea is going to work or not with the rear facing light we were talking about. I don't want to spend a lot of money on an experiment. I think I'm going to pull the rear upper brake light and try to fit a 2x6 flood in there and tap the reverse light wiring to a relay to turn rear flood light on and off. I'll rig a 3 position switch on the dash to turn the light on/off via the switch and the relay too so it doesn't come on at night when driving around town or in parking lots. But I'm not sure if I can fit the light in the rear brake light housing on the body. It will be a cool little experiment.

It'll be interesting to see how that works out.

Hey vlafrank,
These lights are for off-road use.
Not sure the DOT would approve of insanely bright LED's for street driving

Do you have Lumens ratings for the XT series?
I am trying to decide between the XT series and TrekPods.
I want to add flood lighting to the front.
