Raptor Lights installed on 6th Gen 4Runner

[Geofflolz]

Hello @Geofflolz may I ask where you purchased this?

I got it from @StickerFab shop I believe. You can find them elsewhere, he just has a good solution for mounting to the SR5 bumper.

Thank you.

Nice! I actually did that last week with custom brackets. Will be a product available soon.

Could I be the first idiot to put Raptor lights on a 6th gen grille? I couldn't find any so I bought some for the Tacoma and designed / 3d printed some brackets to make them work on the grill and this is the result!

I need to take the front bumper off to properly hide the wiring but that will probably be an adventure for the weekend. That pesky shutter really gets in the way.

What wire did you tap into?

What wire did you tap into?

I have a 8 gang switch panel that I installed a few weeks back so I didn't have to tap into anything... Other than the existing one for the switch panel. I dont remember off the top of my head which one I used... it was just a unused slot though that was an "on" fuse, since NONE of the acc would fit a wire tap because of the way the fuse box is laid out.

So you need to flip the switch to turn them on vs just coming on like DRLs? I tried to tap into the defrost fuse but oddly its always on, so are all the others that are unused. The add a fuse wouldn't fit into rear wiper but even then when I touched with the 4runner off they still lit up so something else must be controlling the power if the truck is off or not because it isn't the fuse box. The chatGPT explanation.


? Why This Happens:

Many modern vehicles — including your 2025 4Runner — use:

• Always-hot power at the fuse box, even for things that appear ignition-controlled.
• Then, relays or body control modules (BCMs) decide whether to allow current to flow to the actual device (like the de-icer pad)

So:

• The fuse is always hot, but the device won’t operate unless the truck is on and the relay is triggered.

I bought these fr Amazon, super simple install. I tapped into the daytime running light wire. I tried tapping into the IGN3 fuse but it screwed up all the driving sensors so I tapped into the wire.

Picture of which wire?

Not around the vehicle atm and of course cannot find a photo of the fuse diagram online lol. If you happen to have a photo of yours (passenger side box under hood) I could mark which one I used.

Thanks!

Thanks!

So the ones in the lower row are the actual acc ones but I could not get a fuse tap to fit there because of the orientation and height of everything around it and I am not about to attempt to piggy back off a positive or whatever the correct way to do it is... So I went up to the top part which those 6 blocks all have power and turn on with the "on" position (although mine had another couple fuses installed there also where yours just has the 7.5) I am currently running my ditch lights and the raptor lights from that tap going to the switch and have not had any issues or lights pop up.

Where you put it worked, thanks for the assist @Geofflolz

I LOVE my 4Runner…2.5” “ leveling kit” and Nitto Ridge Grappler 275/65 R20’s. No rubbing at all.

Those look so good. How did you mount them? I've been looking for a solution for the TRD Sport.

I bought the same lights on Amazon
