Here at Yota Leds we offer three different sets of LED Grille Lights for the 3rd Gen Toyota Tundra. All of the kits are offer are "grille-specific" meaning that they are designed specifically for each OEM grille style offered by Toyota. Our LED Grille Light sets come with a complete plug-and-play wiring harness and custom laser cut brackets made to install directly into the different slots in your Tundra's grille. They install via an add-a-fuse into your engine bay fuse box that can be tapped into different fuse slots like the INJ, Headlight fuse, etc. Depending on where you install the add-a-fuse is how the lights will be controlled - for example using the INJ slot means that the grille lights turn on with the ignition of the vehicle, using the headlight slot means that the grille lights turn on with the headlights.
Please reference the photos below to identify the different grille styles offered on the Toyota Tundra. Please note, there are some grilles that are not compatible and not currently offered in our product catalog.
The 2014-17 TRD PRO Tundra's came from the factory with the grille shown below. This "Heritage" style is identified with the traditional TOYOTA lettering on the front of the grille, and has long horizontal slots where the brackets sit on top of the grille and are held in place securely with a bolt and washer behind the LED.

In 2018, Toyota updated the look of the Tundra grille to be more in line with the TRD PRO style look of the Tacoma. This grille has smaller rectangular slots but still features the traditional TOYOTA lettering on the front of the grille.

We refer to this style Tundra grille as the "honeycomb" grille. These slots are slightly smaller than the 18-21 Tundra TRD PRO grille slots, and the color of the grille itself is also more of a grey vs the black as seen on the TRD PRO style grilles.

Tundra LED Grille Lights are super easy to install, most installations take 30 minutes or less. However, if you are not comfortable with basic electric wiring we always suggest visiting your local mechanic for help.

As mentioned above, our wiring harness can be installed via an add-a-fuse to tap into a current fuse on your vehicle. However, we also offer an optional Grille Lights switch that can be installed into the OEM switch slots on the dash of your Toyota Tundra. This is a universal switch that can be added to work with any type of accessory lighting or wiring harnesses installed on your vehicle. Using the switch allows you to control your grille lights with an easy on/off button on your dash.
We've had lots of people asking about customizing grille lights - whether that's using a mix of white and amber bulb colors or installing additional lights in your grille. Luckily, the slots on the Tundra grilles are modular, meaning that the brackets will work in different installation configurations. We offer all of our brackets online individually for purchase as well as individual bulbs. These can be purchased and sliced into our 3-piece light sets for additional customization.
]]>The Top 5 Most Affordable Mods for your new Toyota Tacoma 3rd Gen (2016-2021). This list includes some of the most common and most affordable ways to customize your Toyota Tacoma truck. Not only are all of the items on this list super affordable, but they are also easy to install and make for some fun at home projects for your new vehicle!
Vehicle modification on the Toyota Tacoma can include a wide variety of parts, from interior modifications to wheels and suspension all the way to body armor. These modifications can quickly add up and put a large dent in your wallet. We put this handy guide together to help people find some of the more affordable Toyota Tacoma Mods and aftermarket parts available. Most of the time, these are purchases people make when they first purchase their vehicle because these are more low spend items that don’t require you to visit your local shop for service and installation.
Tailgate inserts are one of the most popular, and also easiest to install modifications out there for the Tacoma. These inlays install directly into the cutout Tacoma lettering on the tailgate of your truck. You can find a high quality set of inserts for usually under $40, and they come in a variety of colors - from matte black, to red, and chrome. You'll want to look out for a set that uses high quality adhesive - usually 3M brand is a good sign.

Another common mod you'll see on the 3rd Gen Tacoma, is blacking out the emblems - this includes not only the Toyota logos on the truck, but also the additional trim badges that come on the truck. It's becoming more and more common to see car manufacturers or dealers even now selling vehicles with these kits pre-installed. We suggest always using an overlay kit, it's a much easier and cleaner way to blackout your logos instead of trying to mask and spray yourself. These overlay kits are super easy to install, and stick directly on top of the factory badges on your vehicle. Pro Tip - we always suggest making sure the emblems are super clean before sticking on the new overlays, use rubbing alcohol to prep the surface for a perfect installation.

One of the most lacking aspects of the Toyota Tacoma is the halogen headlights that it comes with from the factory. This day and age most vehicles already come with LED or Xenon Headlights straight from the factory. The halogen headlights on the Tacoma are not very bright and are worth upgrading for improved visibility on the road. For between $50 to $100 you can add a nice set of LED Headlights to your Tacoma that really help light up the road. Not only do these brighter lights look better, but they help keep you a little bit safer.
We suggest the Alla Combo Headlight package - for under $90 you can replace both your low beams and high beams to high quality LED lights.

The great thing about the Toyota Tacoma is the amount of space you have in the vehicle. Unfortunately, this space isn’t totally managed in the best possible space. On the bright side, this gives you the freedom to deck out your Tacoma to your specific needs and uses. There are some great accessories out there to help better manage the space in your vehicle. Our personal favorite is the Vehicle OCD organization package - this includes a center console divider, tray, and glove box organizer for under $40. Vehicle OCD products are always super high quality and come with a perfect OEM fit, always.
"Raptor" lights, or LED Grille Lights, have become more and more popular on non-Ford vehicles over the year. The cool glow of amber or white LED grille lights adds a unique and aggressive look on the front of your car. At Yota Leds, we offer 8 different types of raptor grille lights and wiring harnesses for the Toyota Tacoma. All of our sets are grille-specific, meaning they are designed to fit perfectly with the different style Tacoma OEM grilles out in the marketplace.

We know it can be difficult to limit it to just 5 items when it comes to your Tacoma modification. Check out our 'Bonus List' of some of the other most common 4Runner modifications - all affordable and quick and easy to install!
This is another super common, Tacoma favorite. Show your patriotism with a rear window flag decal. There are also other decal design options available, with forest and mountain themes, state flags, and more!
The grille badge is a relatively new product, first made popular on Instagram. These badges mount easily into the grille of the Tacoma (also universal with 4Runner) and come in a variety of color schemes to match your vehicle or theme. My personal favorite is the Toyota tri-color heritage theme, showing the retro race colors of the Toyota brand.
If your vehicle still has the factory carpet floor mats, all-weather liners are a must-have! Protect your carpet and interior against the winter weather and any of your 4Runner adventures. This makes clean up SO much easier after a weekend of exploration. Great for sand after beach trips and more!
Interior LED bulbs are a nice and affordable way to "modernize" the look inside your vehicle. The clean, bright, white shine from the LEDs helps illuminate the inside while looking much more modern than a traditional halogen bulb. I'm still surprised when vehicles don't come from the factory with interior LEDs - this is an area Toyota should look to improve on for future years.

Traditionally, the Toyota 4Runner comes from the dealer with Chrome emblems. Manufacturers like Jeep and Dodge are starting to catch on to the trend that vehicle owners like the blacked-out emblem look, but unfortunately, Toyota still hasn't caught onto that trend. Thankfully, there is a simple solution to blackout your 4Runner Emblems with kits directly available from Toyota and others. The most popular Black Out Emblem Kits are made of plastic that mounts on top of your current emblem using 3M Double Sided Tape. All you have to do is clean your emblems with a rag and remove the sticker from the double-sided tape and stick on. An easy and simple mod to give your 4Runner the aggressive blacked-out logo look! The kits are available for purchase and in a variety of combinations for the various 4Runner vehicle trim levels.

With the newly available options out there, it's now easier than ever to upgrade your 5th Gen 4Runner’s front end to the TRD PRO style "heritage grille." The TRD PRO grille is different than the traditional Toyota "logo" grille that comes on the non-PRO models, including the SR5, Sport, and Off-Road models. On those models, you'll likely have the Toyota logo in the center of the upper portion of the grille. The PRO style grille is much sleeker and provides your vehicle with a more aggressive front end look. It also allows you to install Raptor Lights in the top row - 3 or 4 LEDs when the other style grille cannot accommodate them.

On the bright side, this gives you the freedom to deck out your 4Runner to your specific needs and uses. There are some great accessories out there to help better manage the space in your vehicle.
Based on your needs, the few items I’d recommend are the Vehicle OCD Center Console Storage Organizer, Center Console Tray, Glove Box Organizer, and Cargo Space Trunk Organizer or Cargo Net. If you really need more space management, check out the Salex Roof Annex, that turns your roof into its own little annex space for extra storage. All of these accessories range in price from $20 to $100 depending on what you need.

It's a fine line between worrying about everyday wear and being able to just enjoy your vehicle for what it's made for - exploration and adventure! I'm all about the accessories and products that help maintain the original condition of your ride. These center console and cupholder inserts help keep your vehicle clean and make it much easier to clean up after any mishaps or accidents that may happen along the way.
There's nothing like that "blacked out" look when it comes to our 4Runners. There are lots of great plug-and-play options for taillight assembly's to give your 4Runner a more unique and custom look. This option from Longding has sequential turn signals and a cool animation light when you start up your vehicle.
These daytime running lights are made to replace the OEM fog light bezel on your 4Runner front bumper. When installed, these plug-and-play replacements add a cool LED "fang" around the fog light. They can be wired to run with your day time running lights, or can be installed to work with your sequential turn signals.
Inspired by the iconic Ford Raptor's LED lighting in the grille, a popular mod for Toyota 4Runner TRD PRO owners is to install LED accent lighting into the grille of their vehicle.
YotaLeds.com has made it easy to do so with our new Amber LED Wiring Harness Kit. Our kit includes everything you need to add the popular 4Runner Grille Lights to your TRD PRO.
The YotaLeds.com 4Runner Grille Lights kit is designed to fit perfectly flush with the grille of the Toyota 4Runner 5th Gen TRD PRO. The lights are installed from the back into the grille, so they sit completely flush for a straight from the factory look. Most of the DIY kits out there place the LEDs on top of the grille resulting in a bulky messy install. For those planning to spend thousands of dollars on their new 4Runner, it's worth buying a kit specifically designed for your vehicle.Our kit includes everything you need for an easy, tool-free install. The kit is designed to tap into an empty fuse, and the lights go on with ignition of your vehicle. The kit includes enough zip ties for the install, as well as the additional fuse you'll need to install.
We currently offer two versions of our popular Amber LED Wiring Harness kit. The two-led kit is designed for those with a 5th Gen (14-18) 4Runner SR5, Trail or Trail Off-Road Grille. Those with a TRD PRO or who have installed a TRD Pro on their vehicle are suggested to use the three-led kit.
