Absolutely love these! They are subtle but look sharp as hell on my truck. If you’re not sure about pulling the trigger on these steps stop thinking and just do it. At this point I may as well be a driving advert for armordillo haha. Thanks guys!
Awesome running boards with led lights was easy to wire the lights up really work nice functions great best running boards with the led lights built in love them took about 30 minutes to install little harder bye yourself a nothing hand. Would be nicer. Very happy with these running boards 😃
The install and mounting of the steps were very easy and straight forward.
It took less than 30 minutes from mounting and tightening all the bolts by myself.
For the wiring, I decided to run them off my trailer harness wiring.
Doing this, the lights function the same way a hooked trailer would function.
Lights turn on when tail running lights are on and the blinkers corresponds with the respected blinker/turn signals.
I didn't really want my lights to be on in the day time, so when my lights turn on automatically at dusk-evening, the lights turn on.
How I wired mine:
- I purchased a trailer wire harness that plugs into my trailer plug
- Ran the wires behind my license plate
- Ran all wires from the front of the steps to the back following factory wires that ran along the bottom frame (use extra wire to reach the back)
- Connected to the wires from the trailer harness (cut any excess wires)
- Text, zip tie and clean up
**Alternative: cut back the cover of the trailer wiring harness behind the license plate, tap into the corresponding wires. Then replace electrical tape.
If you want the lights to turn on with differntly, you'll need to decide when you want them to.
**Keep in mind that each steps have their own set of wiring. Running lights will need to be combined or connected independently to the same wires on the opposite side of your vehicle.
Example: if you want the lights to turn on with your DRL's, you'll need to tap into the DRL wire(s)...
Find which lights to tap into and it'll start up when those lights have power.
This will be the brown wire.
The other option is to tap into each tail lights' corresponding wires.
For a 22 Tacoma, that would be the middle set of wires (top = Brake lights/bottom = reverse lights).
I hope that gives an idea on where to start planning the start up function of the lights.
For now, tapping into the trailer harness wires work for me.
**Make sure you cover the wires with tubing or some type of cover to protect from the elements under your vehicle.
Overall, love the product.
Not too heavy, sturdy to stand on for reaching my roof rack & and getting into my rig. Design is great. Really goes in line with the side of the truck without being too much of an eye soar (doesn't belong).
I really like the design of these running boards. However, they need to work a bit on quality control. The first set I received had dents, so a second set was shipped to replace them. That set was also dented and had some powder coating issues. The instructions for the wiring only tell you what each color corresponds to(DRL, turn signal, and negative) but have no instructions for where to connect them on the truck. Better detailed instructions would be great. Customer service has been good, and overall I still am happy with the product.
They were pretty straight forward installing them on to the truck. Instructions for that were great. As far as the wiring part those directions were not very detailed. It was three sentences, one sentence for each wire. Also couldn't find any sort of walk through video or extra directions. Going to have a shop wire it up
