I appreciate you bro!

Everybody's taste is different. Been a fan of flashing/blinking brake lights since the original Cyber-light in the early 80's. Really helped on my motorcycle! Added Kahtec brake light flashers to the center light to every vehicle owned since 2002. Still some of the "dimbulb/distracted/yapping on their cell phones" pinheads have come dangerously close. Seeing these decided that I like this type of attention getter and will be better than the center light install. Easier too as I have the cargo light center style which requires two people and pulling down the headliner. Thanks for the video and will be checking more of yours!

@@modXELA Super excited as just received the Nilight Strip today! As the really cold weather is going to linger thought I'd wait to install despite having a heated garage, but went to test them in case of a problem. OK, is there a trick with getting the plug into the trailer connector? Tried and tried and tried. Looks like they are lining up but won't go in pass 2 or 3 mm. Thanks for your advice!

@@FergieNCC2475 I would highly recommend for you to wait until the temperature is at least 60F or you'll have problems with it sticking. I'm not clear on your issue regarding the plug. Do you mean the connector of the light strip doesn't fit into your 4-pin plug? Maybe photos will help... you can email me at modsxela@gmail.com.

Hey Billy-jade!! I thought I'd give it a shot and see what everybody else thinks. It was a 20-min install so not much invested here and it's not permanent. Nice to hear from you as always my friend!

Do the reverse white lights actually help? I've been looking for a solution to reversing at night: I had recently installed new tail lights, but their reveres light is a bit dim and I wonder if this LED tailgate strip would sufficiently add enough light to make up for that

So have you hard wired the rest of the wires in yet? How did you keep the snow off the 4wire flap that you talked about? I live in NY and don’t like how that door has to stay open when the lights are hooked up

Hello, I am having trouble installing the same LED when it comes to hand wiring the reverse light. Is it possible to do it without a wire tap connector?

@modXELA

Sure, you can strip the wires and just wrap it directly. Some wire tap connectors are a little finicky.

Hey brother, great video I am originally from Montreal Canada. My name is Freddie I have a SR5 Toyota Tacoma, 2021. I’m actually doing the hardwire from the back underneath I have the strip light bar and have a three-way harness kit from the back now the only pre-stripped wire on the light bar is red I have everything I need I have the tap in clip I have the shrink rubber wrap what I need to know is from underneath and not from the tail light. Am I looking for red wire to Tap in our model Toyota Tacoma I believe 3rd GENERATION Toyota Tacoma SR5. From underneath when I tap in pre-strip red wire from the LED light strip What am I looking for underneath is that wire red

Double check the wiring on your 4-pin connector, maybe it got crossed. It shouldn’t do that as the wire for the reverse is independent.

@@jetsbme1 it’s hard for me to tell if it’s the right one but because it’s thinner, my educated guess is that it is not the correct wire. One way to do it is by using a tester. Check for continuity from the red wire of the reverse light to the wire that you mentioned.
