I was just researching lightbars this week! I really love your videos. They are very informative with great instructions.

Great video,super awesome to know the dash is that easy to unhook and you don't even need to cut a hole in the dash but that the dummy spot is just a punch out hole, thanks Toyota for understanding people mod your vehicles.

This video is the most helpful for the Rough Country lights! I've had mine for 3 years and gave up trying to figure out how to get the switch led to turn off when the truck is off! Thanks man!!!

How did you fix it? My switch stays on all the time

This was such a great tutorial. Got mine done today and the result is flawless.

What's up t4r garage. Wanted to thank you again. Your video helped me with the wire install. The only deviation was i went through the small rubber grommet on the left of the main one. I drilled a hole through it to pass the wires through. Worked great. Thanks again!

Thank you! That’s a great spot to go through too, nice choice. I would have gone through there but I had already ran my raptor lights through that location.

You're the freaking man bro! I wish I could post pictures to my comments, would show you the amazing job I did because you helped so much, And I'm just so proud of it LOL.

Another great video and the light bar looks great! I ordered the same switch through 4Runner Lifestyle and will be wiring up a 20 light bar as well.

Nice and clean looking install with good instructions. Like your Raptor Lights, will look for your install video for that. Thanks!

@@T4Rgarage Yup it does!! Thank you for the tip!

I believe if you hooked up that other white wire you would have the word "light bar" lit up when your headlights are on then the light bar symbol will light up when you engage the switch. So you would still be able to know if your light bar was on or off with that other wire hooked up. You would just be able to see the button in the dark.

so that extra white wire on the switch... I m guess it doesn't connect to the the constant power? it connects to the other one... the one that isn't the ground?

Just in case anybody out there runs into this issue... the LASFIT 10ft Wiring Harness I ordered a month ago from amazon has different color wires. The 3 wires from the relay are Red, Black and Yellow. I ordered the same switch as in the video. Here's how to connect to the updated colors: Black to black Yellow from the relay connects to the Green on the switch the Red from the relay connects to BOTH the red and the white on the switch Everything works flawlessly.

Thanks for the helpful video! I have a different light bar, but after everything is installed, my switch stays illuminated, even when the vehicle is off. The switch works just fine and turns the light bar on and off like it should. Any ideas what my problem might be?

Nice job.

Please check out my other videos, I have done this and made a video for it

for $15 people should get a relay hanger. You can use the two sockets for your bolts and it will hold 4 relays. You think you will only have one light bar or set of lights.. but trust me, it won't be the end of it. You'll want ditch lights or a backup light or rock lights. having the relay hanger is handy.

So where would white wire go if I wanted switch to light up when I turn dash lights on?

Been binge watching your videos while I plan mods for my runner haha. Just ordered the body armor hi line and rough country light bar with your recommendation 🙌🏻 Also plan on getting the diode ss3 with Amber drl setting as fog lights, also with your recommendation haha. The rough country light bar I ordered has an amber drl setting, but I’d still love to use the oem style switch like you did in this video. would you have any advice on how I would wire that up so that the amber DRL runs like your diode ss3 did when they weren’t “on” ? Any help would be appreciated 🙏🏻

In a sense, I need to find a way to convert the 3 way switch that comes with the Rough Country (on, off, drl) to the oem style switch button. I’d like for the drl setting to turn on as default kind of like my raptor lights.

@@VietHuynh You can purchased a Cali Raised OEM “dual function switch” that has “white/amber”. It’s just like the switch I used but it has two switches in one. Or you could use a “T-tap” connector to tap into the Raptor lights to trigger your amber light bar drl to come on with your raptor lights. I personally would go with the OEM dual switch though.

Yes, unless you control power to the lights with a high current rated switch. Aircraft (mil spec) toggle switches are available rated to 20amps but they’re not anything like the inexpensive switches commonly sold at auto parts stores. The OEM style switches are usually rated at only 3amps since they only power the relay coil and tiny internal LED light.
