I just want to say I skimmed KZbin and came upon your channel, great content that REALLY fits my interests I just so happen to purchase a 2021 1500 AT4 6.2L aswell as of today. It’s amazing how the algorithm stays to my liking because there are many touches I want to install in my sierra. Keep it up I look forward to see much more!

[@Donslife]

That’s great! I hope my content continues to work for you

[@stevedemarest276]

OK.... I liked that better than I thought I would.

[@Donslife]

I had reservations too. I didn’t want it to be tacky, but for certain situations, I think it is cool to have. But also, I have to consider content for the viewers. Now if anyone was wondering about rock lights like these ones, they probably have a better idea 💡

[@smtheodore]

I don’t even want this but I love your videos ! Thank you for the time you put into these videos

[@Donslife]

That’s part of the fun, just trying new things out and deciding if they are something to keep or pass on. 🤘🏼 The videos do take quite a bit of time to make. Happy to do it though

[@Lerchcon]

Yes. Be right over to get this done. I have a black widow. It would look awesome. But a ticket for the red😂

[@Donslife]

Off road use only! Black Widow’s are sick!

[@Lerchcon]

@@Donslife it’s legal here to use on highways and surface streets. Just can’t use emergency colors. White is good to go since I have a white truck. Just not red green or blue.

[@Auxbeam]

That's pretty sick indeed!

[@smokinmetalcarfun2292]

Great job and very informational keep up the great work looks 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Donslife]

Thanks 🙏🏻

[@mr.nodayzofftv4836]

Thanks man this was so informative I’m installing mine as we speak because of you thanks so much!

[@Donslife]

No problem. Glad you liked it

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

Hi Don, great explanation of everything here and nice clean install. Truck looks great with the Auxbeam rock lights 😃

[@Donslife]

Thank you!

[@waynebeck7801]

Thanks for the video..I have almost this exact same mod planned for my Xterra..The lights will be puddle lights attached to the frame rails maybe three on each side. I would like to somehow have the lights activate when the interior lights come on.

[@Donslife]

You could tap into an interior light circuit to trigger a relay on and off. The relay would then power on and off the added lights

[@smokinmetalcarfun2292]

Rock lights came out really good. I'm definitely thinking about doing it on my new 3th gen

[@Donslife]

Thanks. I wasn’t sure how they’d turn out but agreed to try them. They are brighter than the camera shows. I know there are even brighter ones on the market

[@smokinmetalcarfun2292]

[@HavenMelton]

Thanks, I have my lights waiting on the Denali Ultimate to be built. :(

[@jasonworkman7912]

Very nice video. Thats excatly how I want to hook up lights on my 2019 chevy trailboss. Only thing is, I would like to know how you spliced the extension wires and what kind of wire you used? Can I use just reg pos and neg wire or do I have to use the kind of wire you did?

[@Donslife]

Thanks! You can use any automotive wires. Sticking to the same or thicker gage than what the lights come with is a good idea

[@jasonworkman7912]

@@Donslife awesome thank you for the info.

[@peterlemasson5497]

I think the plug connectors should be closer to the lights in case you need to remove the liners. Nice setup though and great tutorial.

[@Donslife]

Something to consider for sure

Can I connect in to dome light and run to relay like the cargo bed lights. I want them just to come on when morning door

[@Donslife]

Yep, that could work.

[@alejandrogonzalez3727]

hey bro, first let me say, your content has helped me a ton. I do have a question I too have the aux beam 8 gang switch and tapped my rocklights to it and for some odd reason the switch wont turn them on. I have to click the switch panel button, then click my rock lights remote button to turn them on. How could I fix that?

[@pollo0723]

What is the white goo you used to install under the truck? Also are the lights still in tact?

[@matthewcorsey5521]

I just bought pretty much this same truck and the lights are installed but I think someone took all the wiring is there a way to get replacement wiring?

[@Donslife]

Probably better to buy a new full kit so you get all of the correct parts

[@matthewcorsey5521]

@@Donslife yeah I was looking at some of the wiring that is left and it looks like it was exposed to the elements for alittle bit, does the kit come with long enough wires or is that why you bought that separate wheel of wire?

[@andreyafanasyuk7851]

I got the same setup i wired everything up when i connected to my auxbeam switch panel its turns on for a few seconds then turns off automatically and i would have to press the power button in the app to turn back on and it switches off after a couple seconds. Any idea why its doing that instead of staying on? Is there a specific fuse power i need? ( i have it in a 30 fuse slot)

[@Donslife]

I’d connect the item directly to the battery first and see how it behaves. Then you’ll know for sure if it is switch panel related or not

[@Maton79]

nice lights man!! you still thinking on putting new wheels?

[@Donslife]

Absolutely! Gonna keep wearing these tires down a bit first

[@270raptor]

[@Donslife]

Yes and I have it in one of my videos too. Top of the door on the driver’s side. It seems to be the weatherstripping. I have had it happen twice during high winds when driving on the highway.

I like your video (like the rest of the, i got myself a 2021 1500 at4 also a 3.0 and i always watch your videos for ideas) but for some reason i didn't like those rock lights, i mean i been looking at different rock lights and maybe I'll install some in the future buti think I've seen some brighter ones than those.

[@Donslife]

Fair, just experimenting. They’re brighter in person. The camera had a hard time picking them up

[@OMARC919]

@@Donslife thanks for replying and its good i believe its the purpose of your videos to experiment and at the same time it makes it easier for us to choose. Thanks for your videos.

I’m highly thinking of getting these I’ve done a lot of what mods you have done and I got the led bed light bar and love it are these worth it?

[@Donslife]

They are inexpensive but if you install them like I did, it can take several hours and for me was a dirty job.

[@jeremywilliams8501]

@@Donslife I was thinking of just doing under the wheel well area and not copy to much lol. I love your videos and will be trying to do the led light bar in the front soon. And the exhaust on my 2019 elevation

Question can you have rock lights in canada? Not sure about Ontario

[@Donslife]

Emergency vehicle colors while on public roads is probably illegal most places. I installed them for show and off road. You’d have to check your local laws. Having them installed is fine, how you use them is something to consider

@@Donslife That's a good one, would be nice indeed for the night time driving Thanks for the answer!

[@threadoflife]

@@Donslife this answers my question I was hoping for bright white as well. 🤔 I wonder if there’s an RGBW option that’s better than this product? If you had it to do over is there another product you’d entertain?

Do you know if these are street legal or just white is legal?

[@Donslife]

I don’t think red is street legal. Just white, and in some areas, maybe not that either

[@Imheem90]

Does this kit offer white lights?

[@Donslife]

Not this kit specifically, since it’s RGB. You might find white on their website. They launch so many new kits
