Finally! Someone with a video that includes fabricating a front facing camera mount for a TACO!!!!

[@MegaJalay]

Thanks for telling us all about the process! As humans, we need to talk and explain things that the very people who say talk less, come here and want to learn things for free. Keep up the good work!

[@cainemichael977]

One of the better videos detailing this upgrade.

[@brianburckholter5630]

One of the best videos I have ever watched. No BS, straight to the point, nice work. Well done! Thank you!

[@wheelsturn]

Thank you for this video. The part where you ran the wire through the wire loom to do the add a fuse really helps. Having a fully closed fuse gives me piece of mind.

[@jayesty759]

Pay no attention to the “too much talking” crowd. Great, succinct, detailed video. Many thanks!

[@almightyrith4881]

Bro I found this video to be very detailed and helpful. I will most likely follow your instructions when I get my grill and lights. I don't think talking too much is a bad thing, so I'm not sure why people would say that and I think you hit every detail of instructions in my opinion. Keep posting contents like this! Love it!

[@joeydf]

Dude... you sound just like RDJ’s Tony Stark/Ironman. During the voiceovers, it felt like I was listening to Ironman talk LOL

[@Beacon_Offroad]

😂 I get that comment a lot. I truly had no idea. I actually think I may try and squeeze in a quick Ironman quote in a few videos for fun and see if anyone notices haha

[@joeydf]

@@Beacon_Offroad New to the channel and this the first video I’ve watched. It was the first thing I noticed once you started talking haha would definitely love to try catching some quotes 😂

You are talking about relevant stuff, it's all good, brother.

"Talk to much??" Bro, you videos are Superb! Thanks from Pittsburgh. I wish your garage was closer.

Explanation is the key when showing and installed you are doing it right.👏💪👍

Thank you.

Love the trick to get into the fuse box! Thanks

[@tonycastaneda7700]

Dude don’t apologize to stupidity! For Your explanation of the right way ! Great video !

[@shelbygtrag5859]

Did the same to my 2020 TRD OR prem. with camera in front but made my own fit for camera, looks factory and works great! Great vid! Used different fuse because I like them on all the time with my Drls.

[@Beacon_Offroad]

Ya I thought about running them like that too.

[@borinken_foliage8003]

Thanks a bunch. I have a Tacoma and apparently Google knows that. Lol. Anyway I came across this and now I ordered a new grill and amber lights 😅

[@Beacon_Offroad]

Hahah sounds good.

[@Blade-mh3mi]

Great video. Screw the people who say you talk to much. Good explanation during a video is always helpful. Good job.

Hey ,thank you.

[@DjSmiles.]

Thanks for the video and the trick to keep the wiring clean!!!

[@daveshapiro764]

Thanks man, super helpful! Keep making vids, you’re good at it!

[@DavyDave1313]

Just got my TRD Pro grill from Taco Vinyl for my 21 Tacoma that has the smoked amber raptor lights, front facing camera bracket and sensor garnish. Hopefully the install is super easy - I am really nervous about the camera and the sensor malfunction! Your video helped with the camera portion hopefully I do not mess it up!!

[@stihlpro2401]

I just ordered the same setup from Taco Vinyl today also. I got the smoked white lights with cement color lettering and camera mount for my 2021 Limited. Have you installed yours yet? How did it come out?

[@DavyDave1313]

@@stihlpro2401 Strangely enough, a minivan backed up into my truck and I have to take it to Toyota on Monday for repairs. They said they would do the installs for me on top of repairs covered by my insurance so I have yet to see! I did get the grill already and it looks premium quality. Cannot wait for them to slap it on

[@ToyotaTacoma-js6on]

I have a 22 Limited myself and was getting ready to order the grille from Taco Vinyl . Just wondered if you have had any trouble with the TSS sensor or the camera and it's angle since it was moved from the bottom to the top and the TSS sensor was moved down from the middle position. Any advice would be appreciated since my truck is a Limited I just wondered if you ran into any problems by switching out the grille. Thanks

[@evvis1109]

😀😅🤣😂ONLY HATERS AND LOW IQ PEOPLE WOULD SAY THAT YOU TALK TOO MUCH!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK MAN! VERY USEFUL INFO! THANKS FOR VID.

[@PaulKamanJr]

Nice clean install and really good instructions. I totally enjoyed watching this video.

[@ryanhargis8773]

Thanks for the video, got mine installed and looks great due to your help.

[@nightbreed141]

I actually like the talking because it's reassuring to me.

[@adamrocks19]

Man I greatly appreciate you showing how to route the positive wire through the harness in the fuse box. It wasn’t as difficult to install as I first perceived it to be. My lights look sweet!

[@Beacon_Offroad]

If were gonna do it, may as well do a good job 👍.

[@adamrocks19]

@@Beacon_Offroad yes sir. Absolutely!

[@elizardo-]

Thanks! great way to run the wire through the fuse box

[@ernesttrejo1964]

excellent video

[@scottgorman7166]

Good video...the fuse part is my question....is it a double fuse adapter with 2, 10 amp fuses? Or I guess I can open the fuse box cover and look. But does the fuse kit come with a adapter for 2 fuses into one slot? Thanks for a precise install video.

[@Beacon_Offroad]

Itll be a double fuse adapter. Thanks and goodluck 👍

[@MinhNguyen-gd7bt]

You do good job installing

[@stevepatterson2290]

you did a great job. thank you

Best video install for this grill on youtube!

[@undbecksya]

Great job. Nice detail. Great instruction with the modifications needed.

[@tacovinyltv]

Good job on the install vid. We are sad we just now saw it. Our new brackets actually come so that you can just clip the cover in so there is no modification

[@Beacon_Offroad]

Thank you. Want to send me one? I'll reshoot a new video.

[@peteconnell4436]

@branchan_yota hey dog! So if I order the one you have now with the bracket I won't have to do any modification?

[@TBurgos10]

Great video. Right to the point and good instructions were provided.

Thank you

[@JM-rq1ez]

Thanks for the video, It was done very well. You didn't talk too much.

[@johnd.295]

Great video! Just hopped from your auxbeam switch panel install. Was wondering if you know why my right passenger side headlight doesn’t work after installing the add a fuse wire to the location in the video. My switches on the auxbeam do work and power on any lights connected to it but the only issue is my right headlight now no longer works. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

[@thecharper]

Just the right amount of talking. Great video!

[@TonTonStark7]

Thanks this video was very helpful man!

[@ryanli8728]

Great video man! Definitely gonna do this mod. Question is now, how’s it going to affect the panoramic view after a lift and tires? But I guess time will tell. One other thing, at 12:35 man, damn you sound like Robert Downey Jr. It’s uncanny

[@Beacon_Offroad]

Thanks. It doesn't seem off, looks and feels natural. On a side note, this has been a growing trend, haha. Been getting a fair amount of comments over time about it. Lol

[@pimurdock9553]

Nice clean install! thanks for putting this video together. Videos are far better than instruction manuals sometimes. So do those raptor lights only come when the headlights come on?

[@Beacon_Offroad]

Your welcome, yes only when the headlights are one.

[@finditfixitmechanics]

Good video, very thorough. Thanks!

Great video. I have a 2021 TRD Off Road that does not have a front camera but only a rear camera. Any suggestions on which camera kit I would need to add the front camera? I also want to put the Pro grill on so I would like to install both the grill and camera at the same time.

[@Beacon_Offroad]

Thank you. To tell you the truth though I actually dont have a good suggestion for front camera though sorry. I really like the grills personally.

Awesome video man very informative!! And don’t listen to the asses saying your talking to much I enjoyed listening! And as a Toyota employee that builds corollas for a living you did a good good with hiding the wires!!!

[@RacerX1969]

Nice, clean vid. I notice that you moved the camera from the bottom (stock) to the top of the new grill. Any issues with the bird's eye view?

[@Beacon_Offroad]

No issue at all. The camera angle is good.

[@albono780]

You can get the trd pro grill that comes with the factory hole for the Camara

[@theALLMITiY]

Which spot you pug that low profile fuse to? And how much of a fuse you use on that low profile fuse? 7.5? 10?

[@Beacon_Offroad]

I'll have to look again. I just checked the vid, it the last 10a fuse in that set. It was for the headlights.

[@TheWatcher469]

Earned a Subscription from me.. Great Video

[@toddg9956]

Hi great video ! So The TRD pro grill lowers the location of the sensor from the Toyota oval above. Was cruse control effected at all ? No dash warnings ? did you measure the distance ? just curious. Thank you in advance.

[@Beacon_Offroad]

No issues to report at all. Everything is functioning as normal.

[@psychoracer200]

If I connect my power to the lowbeams fuse, will my raptor light stay on when I switch on my high beams?

Thanks, I bought it from Tacoma lifestyle.

None whatsoever. I'll be honest I don't have the answer to that.

It was apart of the advanced tech package I'm pretty sure. Hit up your local Toyota dealership and see if they can add it on for you.

Your tutorials are legit!! So good! Quick question, Do you like the 2020? Have you noticed any of the infamous “tranny hunting gears” issue? Looking to get a vehicle within the next few days and deciding between the Taco or ridgeline (I know, I know haha). But just worried the taco still has that problem. Either way, content is legit! Definitely subbing.

[@Beacon_Offroad]

Thanks. As a long time tech, I've driven a lot of vehicles. That being said my 2020 trans shifts exactly like I'd expect it to. The computer and vehicles job is to bring the rpms down and in a lower gear to try and conserve fuel. I've also heard they've had tcm updates to work on previous issues. In my 2020 I dont feel it's a concern or off. Possibly was a bigger issue earlier in production. Hope that helps.

[@calebfig9368]

@@Beacon_Offroad Awesome, how long it did it take to arrive? I see they have free shipping which is nice. I bought some white grille lights off FB marketplace, and they're total junk. They don't even clip into the grille. Got condensation in a couple of em after about 2 months. I took them apart and sealed em with RTV silicone in the meantime, but I may end up ordering from these guys. Really diggin the "smoked white" look.

Depending on the insert you get, I believe you don't re-use the screws from the factory insert. I didn't with mine. It is just held in by 8 or 10 of the pressure tabs.
