I was gonna say isn't there an option from Toyota to add this? I remember selling tons of those kits for Scions and Yarises (Yari) when I worked in Toyota parts. Probably more expensive than buying them elsewhere but I think it might be pre-wired for such an upgrade?

I ordered red lights and they just came in.....I don't know anything about installing them, where would you say the best and cheapest place would be to have them installed?? The dealership told me car toys?

I found it easy as f***
I wired them directly to my headlight switch, plugged the + directly into the fuse box, grounded the - wire somewhere next to the panel

Has anybody found a way to install and wire them to a switch? I'd like the ability to shut them off whenever I dont want to drive with those lights on.

I would imagine if you wire them into the dome light, they would only come on when the switch is set. But yes, a diy would be awesome!!!

So i did the lights today, too dark to do a diy but it was easy. I pulled the plug out of the back of the cig lghter in the glove box and used 2 wire taps, white is positive black is negative, then rand a connecting wire behind the stereo deck to hide it and to power both sides, taped it up and voila!
