Toyota Tundra Forum

Hey guys. I need some help acquiring/ a place to buy mounting bracket for a OEM kit I just bought for my 08 Tundra. I have everything I need except the brackets to mount them. I have really no tools so I can't create my own. I made a few calls and it would cost me $120 to get them. I'll take drawings at this point, I have a friend that could make them but he's 2000 miles away.

What I got...

That button switch on the top right of the picture and the wiring harness suggests they are not OEM fog lights. The only way to get a good bracket for them would be to have them in hand to measure and make the bracket that needs to be made. What brand are the lights? Maybe someone already has the same brand and MIGHT be able to help.

You are right, I went to my local dealer today, and they are a high quailty knock off. I'll be returning them and getting a refund soon. Thanks for verifying.

From the dealer $399.99 plus tax, I paid $151 total for the knock offs.

I bought a set of 5" Pia's
they are awsome. about $200 from Advance auto.





These lights you can actually see at night when the head lights are on. They are that bright. They are a real tight fit.
One other thing, The pic above is the first mount, the easiest, but the light pattern was verticle so I had to make a bracket so the mounting nut was on the bottom.

Just a suggestion, by far the brightest Ive seen

Cool very very nice man! I was looking at those earlier they were tempting but my budget dictated, especially since I need to return the other set.

I emailed the guys at Autopia and after they emailed me back I purchased there kit. They include mounting brackets, everything included plus unconditional 60 day money back guarentee if I am not satisifed for any reason. They sent it to my ebay accoutn so its technically written!

And btw guys if anyone wants to change the foglight switch for there after market kits to toyotas oem fog lamp switch, the Item# is 0055035976.

Price varies between $9.25 -$14.95, depends where you purchase them.

That part number comes up as the fog light switch for the older toyotas. I am almost positive that the new tundra blanks are a different size than the old toyota blanks.

I called my local dealer and that is the part number they gave me.
