A lot of pickup truck owners add Aftermarket lights to their vehicles, so that makes it a popular accessory. Even without a brush guard, roll bar, and even a bull bar, there's still space to add auxiliary lighting. Mounting lights under or on the bumpers (front and rear) increases the visibility during nighttime and gloomy weather, even if on the outside the vehicle is bone stock. What you can find in the market are three kinds of lights. Here are what's available for the Tundra. The most commonly used lights being used for cars and trucks are fog lights. From the name itself, fog lights are intended to allow the driver to see low lying areas where fog usually converge. Most vehicles come with fog lights direct from the factory, often installed on the front bumper. If you're not satisfied with the coverage this provides, you can always install another set. Hella has an FF50 kit which provides H7 halogen lighting perfect for the fore and aft of your truck. It's convenient size and oval shape also fits perfectly with the total look of the vehicle. For those people who prefer to cruise off the beaten track at night, KC HiLites is one of the top brands to turn to when it comes to floodlight-like illumination suited for every trail. With this kind of light, drivers will be able to see the rough terrain ahead even in the darkest of night without any difficulty. The 69 series in particular is their most popular product, boasting of up to 191,000 candle power per beam. Do remember that these lights are not for city use, but they do prove to be very helpful in the wilderness. Driving lights straddle that thin line between off-road lighting and lights which are safe to use on public highways. Usually mounted lower than off-road lights, driving lights are designed to enhance the illumination of your headlights, and unlike fog lights, they point straight ahead. PIAA is a respected lighting company which makes a range of driving lights, such as their circular 004XT?s, or the more rectangular 1400 series. These lights provide a focused beam of light that might be overwhelming to oncoming drivers, or those in front of you, so it is best to operate them like you would your high beams, and only use them when there are no other motorists on the road. Auxiliary lighting is a fun way to personalize your pickup. It also provides the practical benefit of making it easier for others to see in the night, as well as improving your own ability to navigate in the dark.
