If you are feeding the wire through the small grommet hole at 1:16, I recommend drilling a hole through the grommet and feeding your wire through the grommet. That way you protect your wire from the sharp edges of the fire wall and the hole is more weatherproof.
@mikeaustin5670
@mikeaustin5670 3 жыл бұрын
I agree, you definitely want to run the wire through a grommet. What I have done in the past is to heat up a center punch and drive it through an existing grommet creating a hole just big enough to where you can squeeze your wire through so that it basically seals itself inside the grommet. BTW, Amazon sells a large variety of replacement switches that have custom labels and are LED illuminated.

As others have said, you should NEVER run wiring through a metal hole in your vehicle without bushing the edges of the hole. Some of these holes can be razor sharp. Also, never leave unconnected wires behind the dash without insulating the bare ends.

That’s what I’m seeing. Is it safe to do that? I thought the voltage difference if any, could damage the light that takes the lower load. I have a Baja light bar and Baja ditch lights and need new bolts for Baja fogs. Lol

Great video! I'm trying to figure out my setup now. have 4 separate lights going on the roof. each is 20W. a harness came with each pair. has a factory switch, and no relay. I want to splice the additional 2 lights to the same harness. The main wire looks 14 gauge, and should handle the 6 amp draw, but the Toyota style switch is only rated for 3 Amps. It sounds like I'll have to add a relay to the harness so the switch doesn't get the full 6 amps, and melt. Do you have relays on your harness? how many amps is your light bar? Have you encountered this issue? Thanks.

Always need a grommet in the hole. Don’t pull the grommet and leave it out. It’s a water intrusion point and the metal edge will abrade the wires and possibly short out in the future.

Hey Jon, Question on doing this 2020 Pro. I had done this on my 15 Tacoma light bar and the push button switch. Is the dash removed the same way on the 2020 4runner. Also did you tap into the fuse box in the engine? When I did my 15 Tacoma I did add a fuse where the push button was located. But watching your install you just wired them to the push button. Any info. Thanks.

Jon, thank you for this video. I just ordered some Cali Raised LED ditch lights and have been afraid of screwing up my 4Runner. Some of us rubes who are new to installing accessory lighting, like me, are ignorant of the basics of wiring them. Your video appears to address those basics. The Cali Raised LED switch installation video answers a few more: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jZp9i6h71cvIooE.html. Keep sharing videos!
