Fang Light Buyers Guide for the 4th Gen Tacoma I’ve been digging into fang light options for the new Tacoma and figured I’d put a guide together. The factory setup leaves the “fang” slots blank, and while it’s not a must-have, adding fang lights really cleans up the front end. They bring in modern DRL accents, sequential turn signals, and in some cases even startup animations that make the truck feel a step above stock. Fog Lights vs Fang Lights Fang Lights Accent lighting that fills the “fang” slots near the lower grille Usually DRL, sequential turn, or amber/white accent modes More about the front end looks Fog Lights Fog light buyers guide here: https://4gtaco.com/threads/fog-lights-for-4th-gen-tacoma.1283/#post-4501 Wide, low beam pattern built for cutting through fog, snow, rain, or dust Mount in the factory fog pockets Pure function and visibility boost Baja Designs S1 Vent Kit Unique kit that mounts S1 pods in the lower bumper vents.

They add that DRL signature, startup animation, and sequential turn function that makes the truck look a class above stock. The smoked or clear lens options let you pick between stealthy or bright, and the install is usually plug-and-play. If you care about style, clean lines, and standing out at night or in a parking lot, fang lights are an upgrade you’ll notice every time you walk up to the truck.

We've been creating threads on all our new products for the 4G and felt that this one deserved it's own dedicated post. Arguably one of the coolest innovations to our storage systems - the Aluminum Bed Rack Storage Box!

We're confident to say that this is the ultimate box setup available for trucks! Other options on the market made from plastic simply don't hold up as well over time, and they don't have a premium look and feel. We knew these new trucks needed something that deserves to complement your setup and provide a ton of functionality.

As usual, we make these right here in the US in Arkansas, provide free powder coating and shipping, and a killer lifetime warranty. We truly stand by these items.

You're able to mount one of these on each side of your rack. The boxes are made from 1/8" aluminum, with stainless steel mounts. The lids have gas struts for easy and automatic opening. The heavy-duty latches come with rubber covers and locks. The hardware is stainless steel and black oxide coated. The MOLLE panels are also predrilled for RotopaX mounts. The interior shelving is adjustable (you get two of them), and you get a quality gasket to keep the water and debris out. Each box weighs 38 lbs. We include an extra gas strut in case you add weight to the outside of the panel.

We'd love to hear your thoughts!
