Raptor Lights | FACTOR4 GRILLE LIGHTS Installation | American Company USA | 2019-2022 Toyota RAV4

[@MrMan-ol4ic]

I just got my kit yesterday for my wife's Rav4. These lights are nice. It comes with everything you need! It's awesome!!!

[@installsandpitfalls]

We really love having them, such an awesome upgrade! Thanks for watching!

[@jgstevens5169]

Thank you!! Very useful tutorial. Kinda pricey compared to the familiar Raptor Grill lights, BUT, these look so much better!!

[@installsandpitfalls]

Yeah they're not the cheapest ones for sure, but like you said, I think they look like they came from the factory. Thanks for watching!

[@ronal0508]

If you remove the nut inside the fuse box, then you can route cables for the bottom. Is more elegant and you don't need to make holes

[@installsandpitfalls]

Good suggestion 👌🏻

[@vincentoddo7173]

These look great and you did a great job on the video. I'm going to order this kit soon.

[@installsandpitfalls]

Awesome! Thank you

[@robmac3958]

Great video - appreciate the detail and excellent camera angles. Ordering this kit soon and thanks to you I'm clear on installation 🤜

[@installsandpitfalls]

Great, just seeing your comment. Definitely let us know how it goes, thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@emmexfyv]

I think these look the best being higher up and sort of connecting the headlights visually, but man 130 clamz they are quite proud of em LOL

[@installsandpitfalls]

Yeah, they weren't the cheapest, but they looked the best to us.

[@truthhurts228]

Looks great, nice job!

[@installsandpitfalls]

Thank you Bill!

[@danny_HP]

Does the negative need to be wired to the battery directly? I installed the fog lights as per your last video (thank the heavens for you btw). Most people I've seen just run negative wires to a ground.

[@installsandpitfalls]

I don't know if it's necessary, but since it was right there it was just as easy to use the terminal on the battery. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@MistuhM0n0]

Installed these on my '19 Rav last week and the install was extremely painless. Although I am wondering, would I be able to tap into either the parking lights or fog lights so they're not always on? Or into another fuse location so I can turn them on or off?

[@installsandpitfalls]

You can tap them into your fog lights if you want

[@parlimentjenkinsiii6658]

What did you use to notch the fuse box? And the spade connected to battery wouldn’t drain the battery will it?

[@installsandpitfalls]

I just used a x-acto knife. And the spade connector is on a keyed fuse, so it's only activated when you turn the key. Thank you for watching, feel free to ask any questions 👌🏻

[@rezscethe]

NICE N CLEAN, good job!!

[@installsandpitfalls]

Thank you, we're loving them so far and get tons of compliments

[@claudiaherrera937]

Awesome video! my lights came in with no instructions. Mine stay on though when the car is off. Any ideas?

[@installsandpitfalls]

Thank you for your support! The power needs to come from a keyed ignition source not a constant power source.

[@danieltntbomb]

What fuse would that be? I’m also having issues. Thanks

[@ezsamano]

Before you connect the add a fuse, do you check what side of the connection has the power????

[@installsandpitfalls]

I didn't, just connected the wired by color

[@wms201]

Can anyone help? I would consider getting the positive power directly from the positive lead to the fog light. My thinking is that I’d want them on when the fog lights are on. Do you think that would work? Thank you in advance.

[@installsandpitfalls]

You should be able to tap into the fog light wire with no problem

[@installsandpitfalls]

Just make sure you tap into the fog bulb power wire, not the DRL if you want them turn on only when you hit the fog switch 👌🏻

[@jasong.2368]

Do these help you see the road significantly better at night or fog, or are they more cosmetic in nature?

[@installsandpitfalls]

They don't cast light very far because they're not a focused beam, but they are visible from quite a long distance as supplemental lighting. Plus they look cool 😂

[@danielfrancies2526]

Question for you, I just got these and I put them in today but I ran into an issue on my 2021 RAV4 hybrid LE. It seems like my USB1 and USB2 ports are dummies. Factor 4’s install suggests using “INJ” as a backup which is a 10A port. Am I just supposed to take the 10 amp fuse out put it in the wiring harness and put it in that part labeled “INJ”? Or what I need to find a fuse port with a 7.5 amp fuse in it and use that one instead? I’m not that smart when it comes to fuses, thank you

[@installsandpitfalls]

Keep the 7.5 in the top slot and the 10 from the INJ in the bottom 👍🏻

[@donc6620]

The bottom slot is the one closer to the pin?

[@neljav84]

How do you close the fuse box without pinching the wires?

[@installsandpitfalls]

I just notched the side to allow the wire to fit

[@neljav84]

@@installsandpitfalls Once installed, are they always on? Do they turn on when the headlights are on or separately? Do they turn on with the DRLs or the main headlight or both? Do they come with a remote control? Sorry for so many questions. It’s that I’m really interested in these lights but wanna make an informed decision before buying. Not long ago, they were $120. Now they are $130… Thanks for the reply. :)

[@installsandpitfalls]

The way I hooked them up, they're on anytime the key is on. You can do a wire tap into your fog lights or headlights. I haven't looked into the DRL install. Feel free to ask any questions you can think of. And I agree, this inflation is terrible.

[@neljav84]

Did your kit include a remote control?

[@installsandpitfalls]

It did not, just the lights and some instructions

[@dannylai1]

Is any way you could give more detail where you bought the Raptor Light.? Thanks

[@installsandpitfalls]

[@benpfister210]

When connecting the black negative ground wire, did you have a spare spade of your own you were able to attach to the open exposed end of the black wire? My kit seems to stop there. Figure I should check out a hardware store for a spade, crimper, electrical tape and additional supplies for that step? What do you recommend? (First time doing anything like this with wiring) Appreciate your time bro

[@installsandpitfalls]

Actually my kit had the spade on the black wire that was next to the fuse tap

[@installsandpitfalls]

But I'd suggest buying a kit with spades and different electrical connectors if you're going to be venturing out into different DIY projects. Once you get the hang of it, your confidence will let you try just about anything

[@benpfister210]

Appreciate the feedback! Ended up getting a crimper, and a ring spade for the ground wire and finished the project earlier today! Aside from the usb1 and usb2 fuse slots not working for the plug and play fuse, I ended up finding a forum online suggesting the INJ fuse spot with did end up working for the raptor lights I bought for my 19 rav4 LE. These DIYs do feel good to knock out

[@installsandpitfalls]

@@benpfister210 awesome, yeah I was thrown off a couple different times by the fuse locations

[@Exc_Ryan]

Anyone have any help on a 24 hybrid? I can only get em to work on the 20A P/outlet No.2 and they won’t turn off.

[@installsandpitfalls]

I wish I knew how to help, I haven't worked on any of the hybrids. Which lights are staying on? And are they on with the ignition off?

[@asanjur67]

I need help too!

[@installsandpitfalls]

I wish I knew how to help, I haven't worked on any of the hybrids. Which lights are staying on? And are they on with the ignition off?

[@Dawiboom26]

Can i plug to head light or fog lights which is 10 amp instead of 7.5A?

[@installsandpitfalls]

That shouldn't be an issue

[@colinanderson9085]

I’m thinking about getting this for my car but I’m not getting the one with the remote, how do you turn the lights on and off and how did you configure it

[@installsandpitfalls]

I just wired them for ignition on, so they're on anytime the engine is running. But you could probably tap them into your headlight harness or run a separate switch for them like a fog light switch.

[@colinanderson9085]

@@installsandpitfalls oh okay interesting, I might see if I can connect it to the DRLs or something, thanks!

[@soundtech2312]

Great video I am trying to do the samething but some reason my RAV4 2019 le don’t come with the fuse and went I try to install the lights won’t come on at all do u kno why ? thank you

[@installsandpitfalls]

Are you able to test them on the battery?

[@soundtech2312]

Yes if connected to battery they turn on but if a try to use the fuse don’t work

[@installsandpitfalls]

Ok, I'll look at the exact fuse location when I get home this afternoon and let you know which one it is

[@soundtech2312]

Thank you 🙏 again

[@installsandpitfalls]

@@soundtech2312 no worries, so looking at the fuse block from the front of the Rav I used the 3rd row from the left and 3rd slot down

[@ggv69340]

So If I hook the ligths to the 7.5 usb fuse it won't hurt or burn any of the electric or damage the car ??

[@installsandpitfalls]

If you keep the 7 5 in the upper slot and the 10 in the lower you should be fine. That's how everyone I know is running the fuse taps

[@corvolio]

So no lights option for the Adventure model... 😔

[@installsandpitfalls]

I haven't looked into the Adventure grill, it may be able to use the single snap in raptor lights

[@Anavllama]

whats missing is where you feed the wires through there is no hole>>>>

[@installsandpitfalls]

Hi, feed them thru where?

[@Anavllama]

@@installsandpitfalls I followed the pdf instructions from the link above and figured it out. I stuck the wiring differently as one has to put the plastic planel back on so one has to avoid wires in the wrong places. Not finalized as the lid doesnt close and will cut the wire, so have to find another way of feeding the wire to the fuse box.

[@installsandpitfalls]

@@Anavllama yeah we notched it. I've also seen people drill a hole and silicone around the wire. But it has to be spliced.

[@shannonboyle9858]

Does this work on rav4 prime?

[@installsandpitfalls]

I'm not familiar with the wiring system on the prime, but I would assume the headlights or DRL would be similar to the non-prime allowing you to just tap in.

[@HDMOVIECREATOR2012]

Will this void warranty?

[@installsandpitfalls]

Hi, I wouldn't think so. But I really didn't research it when we did the install. Just a good ground and tap into existing wires I wouldn't think would cause an issue.

[@bennykwan5630]

Love this so much, where can I buy it？？？

Hi what size fusen for the raptor ligths is a 20 ok ????

You can use the 20 that's in the car, but use the fuse that comes with them for the lights
