@@jt2quick It is essentially the same rear animated light trim piece. But the lighting LED part extends a little further at each end by a couple more inches or so. Basically the full length of the original trim. And the animated sequence for turning is different. Instead of a solid line of LEDs that stretches from the center to the edge and disappears with each blink, it is a light chasing two or three LEDs that races from the center to the edge and repeats with each blink. The stop and DRL function is the same though. I also did not remove the Toyota badge from the original trim to place on the new one. (Started to try but feared damaging the original trim or the badge because it was really stuck on there.) Instead bought a new badge that had dual mode backlit lighting. Lights blue normally. Turns red with the brake. LOL, I really have to get the lead out and make a video of my mods. Unfortunately I never recorded my work putting them in. Mainly because I was focused on trying to figure things out as i went a long. Got ideas from watching videos like yours and others. I will try to do a video this week.

Thanks Rick. The hyper flashing is part of it. Just not sure if it's the RAV4 itself or built into the Rear Center Trim I purchased. I'm thinking it's more of the Prime itself. Pretty cool looking though, isn't it? And NO... there is and didn't install any type of relay to make that happen. Normal operation and really a nice change to the basic look of the vehicle. Take care and stay safe.

Hi many thanks for this video. Is it possible to wire this without turn signal or breaks and just to come on when head lights on.

@jt2quick

Howdy... Well..I myself have never tried that. But thinking about it now, I would have to say YES. So follow this line of thought. It is is like any light. Meaning it needs power. So by attaching it or connecting it to the actual rear electrical brake system, it is thus controlled as you either push on the brake pedal. So with that in mind, and you just want to have it come on whenever the Head lights itself come on, then you generally just have to FIND the actual wires that goes to the headlights itself, tap into it or make your connections to it run the wires along side, under or better yet....FIND the fuse relay for the Headlights, (get one of those TAP Fuses) so that you can split the power from the headlights to feed power to the rear trim. That's alot of splicing and dicing. Just be mindful that you do not inadvertently cut the wrong wires. Here's a quick suggestion. Run a simple 6feet or so of maybe 16-14AWG electrical wire. Splice the ends, Connect it to one of the small 5-10 watt hot wires in your accessory fuse box, even if it's just a hot open fuse from another car (you're just trying to provide the necessary power. Then with either an alligator clip or even just the end of the other stripped wire, prod it into the Trim center piece connector you bought. Normal wiring is usually RED for positive, but never know these days unless you check it out. See with one will "LIGHT UP" the TRIM. From there, you're half way done as you know now.... WHERE the exact wire is on that TRIM..that needs to be provided with power, so now...you just find the same line as the Headlights and connect it to that wire. NOW..this is Very Important. remember.. Power requirements for headlights are much, much more thatn power requirements for a Rear Trim LIGHT.. so DO NOT directly just HOOK it up to that headlights...that's why you generally want to find the "FUSE" that is for those headlights and tap into that. With that said, keep in mind, I am not a certified electrician, or even smart enough to try to tamper with something that you want to do, so...I'm just thinking out loud here as to what I.... would do. If you want to see, what MIGHT HAPPEN....just buy a small led that is about the same in those Trim consoles for the Rear Brake Lamp. Attached it to a 12V battery or even the wiring to your headlights on your vehicle or any vehicle for that matter... and SEE...what will happen. The worst thing is that it might blow up and you lost $1 trying it out. If it doesn't blow up or get fried, at least you know, it might be possible to just hook it up... directly . But I doubt it... Either way...good luck to you buddy.

Hallo! Is it possible the led tail light is only switch on or of, together with the standard tail light? Not running LED. No running flash light or something similar. Than, this product will be great for my brandnew RAV VIP 2023.

Hey Christian....apologies for the late reply. I've never tried to isolate it myself as you mentioned, having the tail light only switch on and off because of the way it is wired to the turn signals.

@jt2quick

4 ай бұрын

Hey Buddy, when i tried that, mine cracked. So all I did was just buy like some flexible but strong acrylic clear type sheet from Hobby Lobby and I cut that to size and painted it with as close to blue as possible. You can probably use some plastic type. Even just a 1/8 thick piece of wood cut to oblong size and then waterproof it, but that's like a last resort. From a distance you can't really tell that it is not the original emblem. I was even going to paint mine Cherry Red at one point, until my commander in chief talked me out of it. I did end up purchasing online the Toyota Chrome Emblem though. It was pretty cheap on eBay. Let me know how yours end up. take care.

Price from $135 all the way up to $646.94 (yeah...that's crazy right there). I got mine on Ebay. Go Amazon, in case you change your mind as the return policy is more lax.
