Hi guys! I’m seeing a lot of questions about this VLED bar being compatible with the MESO Customs Total Tail Stage 1 mod. The answer is yes! You would just install the VLED breakout harness BEFORE the MESO harness. In fact, the MESO Total Tail bulbs use the same VLED chip as what I’ve shown in this video. I hope this helps for anyone wondering and THANK YOU as always for watching 😊😎

@Beafy Год назад

Im not sure the connectors appreciated you assuming their genders like that…

@TacomaRAV4Lover Год назад

Do you have video on that particular set up? I have the MESO Custom Tail Stage 1 installed on my 2022 Tacoma.

@MemeBiologist 6 месяцев назад

do it jiggle?

@johnhuston7565 2 года назад

Hi Chloe, I just want to take a minute to say that your videos are absolutely, hands-down the clearest instructions and best edited of any I have seen. Kudos to you for taking on some pretty serious projects on your own! I will admit some of them are out of my comfort level currently but if I do try them later I will definitely be watching your videos on how to do it. They are my go to to figure out anything about my truck and what I want to do to it. I have a 2020 Tacoma and only yesterday received my VLED LP reverse light. I wanted to look at a video as opposed to just the ‘still shot’ pictures for installation shown on the VLED site. When I saw that you had put up a video for the installation of same item I was getting ready to install I was so excited because I knew that one was going to be the best one for me to watch. Thank you for doing such an amazing job and providing us all with the best and clearest instructional videos around. John H

@michaelwhitman1845 2 года назад

Hi Chloe, Thank you so much for the amazing videos. I bought a new TRD Off Road back in June of 2019 and have barely 6k miles on it. Watching your videos gave me the confidence to start installing mods and upgrades to my taco. I have ordered the VLEDS license plate reverse kit and the VLEDS 921 reverse bulbs (currently on back order) expect them in early May! I also installed the Tacoma Lifestyle sequential mirror leds blacked out version, also the Baja Designs Squadron SAE clear fog lights. I have ordered the Stainless Steel Miller Cat shield as well, a big thanks for that video! Will also be getting the fuel tank skid as well, your videos really help a DIY'er like myself and many others! I too, like you, plan on keeping my taco. Please continue to review and install quality products that makes owning a taco enjoyable!

I just came across your channel and I have to say you’re killing it! Glad to see ladies getting into off-roading!

@johnny51984 Год назад

This chick has cost me a lot of money since discovering her channel lol

@soccertl 2 года назад

That looks like an easy, must do, mod. That really brightens up the backup area.

@Kevin55acp Год назад

I don't leave many RU-vid comments, Chloe, but your videos are really great. I feel like I can actually do some of these mods, just by watching your content... bravo!

@traeberkeley3902 2 года назад

Just watched this video. I immediately placed my order for one of these kits. It's going to make parking in my garage so much easier. I have an older house with a garage that is only a few inches deeper in length than my Taco. I back in so I can use the rear camera to get as close to the back wall as possible so I can clear the garage door. This kit will be perfect for me. Thanks for sharing.

@haroldpope4571 2 года назад

After seeing this I purchased and installed it. Easy and it “lights up the night”!

@SpaceTiger90 2 года назад

So awesome! All the mods you’ve done are your 2019 on 2020 are incredible ☺️

@racehemi426425 Год назад

I just installed my v LED license plate frame light bar. Thanks Chloe for letting me know about it. It's a great piece of equipment. It works awesome. No glare

@bersaincordova6195 6 месяцев назад

Where did you order I can’t find them

@prescottosegie 2 года назад

Great mod Chloe I love watching your channel I always learn something new about trucks 🛻 💪🏾💯 keep up the awesome work I’m proud of you 😎

@hphillips7425 2 года назад

Nicely done young lady. It is refreshing to see a bright and pleasant lady doing truck mods. I miss my Tacoma. I done similar mods and the best one was the custom turbo running 7 psi of boost

@scottgorman7166 Год назад

We all need a turbo on these 3.5 v6. I went from a twin turbo 3.5 V6 400hp to the Tacoma....oh that is a life changing experience.😯

@jandyke9995 2 года назад

What a great idea. My driveway is quite dark backing in off a busy street. I just ordered the kit for my 22 TRD OR that I am waiting delivery on. Keep up the great videos

@kolby2270 2 года назад

Great mod, I think being able to see where you are going in reverse is just as important as going forward. All my exterior lights are LED as well...

@espeescotty 2 года назад

Those are a nice addition. The build quality does look very good too. I'll have to checkout their products. Thanks for this video...and all of the others I've watched in the last week.

@DavidPerez-vm2vu Год назад

Hello Chloe love your videos keep up the good work, thank you so much followed your tutorial in purchasing & installing VLED reverse lights. As I did same purchasing bulbs, license plate cover as well with light bar. They look great on my 2016 Tacoma off road going to help a lot in backing up at night in the country. Hope VLED appreciate you providing them with new customers. 👍🏼

@phillipmarlow5267 2 года назад

ordered some during your video. Thanks a lot for your efforts while doing these.

@1488ThirdReich 2 года назад

Put this on tonight and just like you said, it works perfectly with the MESO Stage 1 mod. Nice and bright. Much better now.

@bernielawson5499 2 года назад

So I have just installed this set up and it makes a huge difference!! Thank You!

@bernielawson5499 2 года назад

Great video!! Ordered the lights and plan on trying the install tomorrow. Thanks for the great content

@joedonnelly9487 Год назад

Late to the party...did the VLEDS bulbs last December, just finished with the LP bar. Will be useful in the northern woods... Thanks Chloe for the great vid on how to install!!

@Mikp-zw3cs 2 года назад

I have a tundra and I found this LED along with Puddle LEDs for my truck and I will tell you that you cannot go wrong with VLED product.

@rf6934 11 месяцев назад

Just ordered some reverse LED bulbs! So awesome!

@kennethmcdonald9970 2 года назад

Awesome video Chloe, getting this mod for sure. As always thanks for the cool video. Double thumbs-up

@rildain76 Год назад

Those look great! The color temperature is so much better than the stock halogens. Definitely on my wish list for my Taco now. And then I’ll need to replace the license plate lights because they’ll be glaringly yellow and dim in comparison.

@TFrax 2 года назад

I like your garage setup. Pretty nice organized tool setup from what I can see in the background. You should do a video on that next.

@jogu1732 Год назад

Love your videos! you are awesome! Thanks for sharing with the rest of us.

@brianrisdon8664 2 года назад

Nice job 👍 your right about brighten up the back-up. You must live in a dry climate, the only thing I would add is dielectric grease. At the connections. Water and current, is bad, can give you shorts, again nice job, you make it easy.thank you

@rickstaco 2 года назад

Awesome! Definitely worth it! I just got my first taco! And I’m trying to find useful mods and this is a def

@michaelhart1440 2 года назад

@geegelle3204 2 года назад

Another great upgrade and thanks for the tutorial

@bryankemp7159 Год назад

Awesome video, awesome channel! Subbed, and I don’t even have my Tacoma yet!

@ncironhorse8367 10 месяцев назад

I haven't even got my Tacoma yet and I want to do this! It comes in a few days!

@billysyms5761 2 года назад

Like you Chloe, any light on my vehicle (or my house) I go LED. Did the cab kit, tail lights and got those same side rear view sequential lights - all smoked lenses. Looks bad ass on the Army Green Taco! Even have the cab / cargo (3rd brake light) on its way that's LED and smoked lens. I like backing my truck in the driveway at night, this mod will be very helpful!

@dominica2765 2 года назад

Thanks for the video I only use VLEDs Jack and Eli are awesome great people great company be blessed

@edhaluschak244 Год назад

Hi Chloe, Love the video - you have sold me! I have a 2022 Tacoma Pro Off-road - same as you and same colour! I have also swapped out all my LED’s as well as the Vleds for the footwells. I was wondering about the backup lights, so you made my decision easy. I just installed a hidden the 32” light bar from Cali Raised and really love them. You may want to take a peak as they really provide excellent light and Finnish off the full led look for the Tacoma. Thanks for making the video! Ed

@rickymoniz4692 2 года назад

Awesome job! I think I"m gone to try that product out thanks for your video. Rick

@petervargas8474 9 месяцев назад

Thanks again Chloe, we’ll see about this for my 2nd gen Taco.

@tripnibs5984 3 месяца назад

Did this work for your 2nd gen? I'm looking at doing the same thing.

@rcafmaintainer3723 2 года назад

Clean install, I think I will do that.

@dms14 2 года назад

Awesome underrated mod. My goodness all these mods you can do to this truck lol I'm going broke because of it! BTW you should install LEDs to your license plate lights as well. Cheap on Amazon kit.

@fdlb99 Год назад

Awesome looks great

@fskrisfx 2 года назад

looks awesome! You should get the puddle pods for the mirrors! i strongly recommend them!

@ChloeKuo 2 года назад

I’ve been looking at those!!

@fskrisfx Год назад

They’re a huge help and I love them! By far one of my favorite mods! Thanx again for this video, I just got new tail lights and remembered you made this video. So it’s my next mod for sure! 👍

@darrellbridges5792 8 месяцев назад

May try this with my 2012 Tacoma

@travisdoesfirewood 2 года назад

Love your videos!! Do you have one on a transmission sensor/temp guard installation? I want to tow a trailer with my 2017 Tacoma and want to make sure I'm not over working it. Thank you!!!!

@jlj209 2 года назад

I like the his mod. I have built in LED lights in my aftermarket taillights so I’m unsure if the attachment to the factory bulb socket will work for me. Warrants further research on my part. If it works, I’ll be purchasing a this product.

@KrinklingPlasticBits Год назад

After watching this I went ahead and got the full reverse setup minus the frame and also the footwell lights. Wish there was a discount code, they’re pricey but they work great! On the footwell lights, I misunderstood and thought that the modes were switchable. I’d prefer them to be off when the doors are closed, they only go dim. I situated them high up and off to sides so they’re muted

@blthep1411 2 года назад

I have to totally agree about your stance on VLEDS. On my Frontier I tested literally 11 brands of led bulbs and all of them were trash until I found VLEDS. Hands down the best quality I’ve experienced and I’ve bought tons of stuff from them ever since as a result. Have not had a failure either. Just got a Tacoma and planning on the LP for it! The Meso tail kit has been out of stock forever. I’m thinking about using VLEDS 921 amber sim the reverse housing and doing a conversion on the reds myself to make them all running lamp and all brake. Turn signals would be below, and reverse would be ONLY the LP kit. Do you think the LP kit would be enough by itself for good night visibility?

@Boobtube. 2 года назад

thanks Chloe. Looks like a easy mod. And very useful one. I would of left one Halogen light in place as backup light, just to show us the difference in brightness, before changing them both out. Also, are your license plate lights in rear bumper LED? They do not look like they are. Maybe that can be a future video.

@tonychaney6513 2 года назад

Fantastic

@scottgorman7166 Год назад

That is a slick mod. I like that light. Couple of concerns...does the license plate LED strip wash out your camera...another video you use a relay to cut out the license plate lights due to washout. And the other is the temperture of the back up bulbs...due they run hot where the temp will effect the lense...do they have a fan in the bulbs? Thanks for the video

@Thatdudeinred 2 года назад

keep it up

@davidnguyen7693 2 года назад

Who did you go with for your tonneau cover and how do you like it? Looking to get one and there are soooo many different manufacturers out there to choose from.

@ScottWilliams323 2 года назад

enlightening!

@AppleiOSGenius 5 месяцев назад

Hey i like to know more of that fire extinguiser you have in the front which one is it and what mount was used.

@Alvisr7 Год назад

Chloe I have a question on the reverse light kit video you did about 6 months ago. Did you have to mess around with any of the fuses ? I attempted to install some LED lights and noticed one of the number 15 fuse blew out. Just wanted to hear your thoughts on this

@jlippard52 2 года назад

Chole,, have you thought about adding led light bar, just below the tail gate for turn signal and break light. I have seen them on a lot of trucks, thought about adding this to my Tacoma

@7.3PSDA2 2 года назад

i have the flush mounts on k1500 and i like them.

@user-zt9bg3pr4m 2 месяца назад

Nice job Chloe. I know I have come across your videos two years after they were originally posted I am interested in where you got all your led bulbs for the front and rear of the truck Mahalo Mark

@5312cesar 2 года назад

Hi Chloe I always impressed all the mods you have completed on your truck. :) Sorry I have a question nothing related with this video. I have a 2021 Tacoma trd Sport and I’m looking for a Hood Scoop light bar to install in my truck. Do you know when I can find/buy it? Not the Chinese version, I’m looking for one made in USA. Please let me know. Thank you! Cesar

@Knel_ 2 года назад

So much light!!!!

@tacodave3245 2 года назад

Will this mod work if you have the meso custom total tail light mod?

@allansarmiento5411 7 месяцев назад

Hello Chloe is there any installation instruction for the hardwire ones? Please let us know thanks

@pyrochiilde Год назад

I saw your video of the wiring harness to disable the plate lights in reverse. This seems like it would cause the same glare problem; how’s the glare?

@samdequina3386 2 года назад

Is the vleds brighter than your meso custom total tail light? Can’t decide if I should change my tail light bulbs or go with meso custom total tail light

@bruceplacido9580 Год назад

Thanks for the great video. Do you have a link to the reverse backup bulb?

@zzanatos2001 2 года назад

I should put this on my 4Runner. I have really dark tinted windows and can't really see much when I'm backing up at night. I also had a question: Do you have any videos that feature your Land Cruiser?

@raymathews7035 2 года назад

I have this on my car. Having my Camry XLE converted to all LED's. And the interior is also LED.

@gregoriojuarez1579 Год назад

Do you think this could be applied to the front? and connect them to the fog light system?

@johnk5665 2 года назад

How did you get the Oem connector. Vled website doesn't show that it comes with an Oem connector. I have a 2021 Trd off road.

@thetinkercook5430 2 года назад

My LP LEDs almost washout my BC at night. I would prefer back-up lights, that flash between dim and bright

@reddottx 2 года назад

I need to keep up. Awhile back I saw a mod to use the reverse light as the turn signal. Not the same truck? Also surprised the original license plate lights are still in.

@jimbaveli 2 года назад

Hey Chloe what was that brand/model of the battery jumper that you use? I can't find it and forgot which video it was in!

@53thumper 2 года назад

Chloe, on your 2019 OR you installed a relay kit to turn off the license plate lights while in reverse to keep from saturating the backup camera. Seems the new led strip over the licence plate will cause the same issue. I'm going to install the Diode Dynamic SC1 pods under my bumper for more light, they will be on a switch and not bkup light controlled. I think with under the bumper the light should be less likely to saturate the backup camera.

@troypoe 2 года назад

The view from the backup camera is in the video. It doesn't cause the same issue.

@raulcruz4834 8 месяцев назад

Hi. I was working if you knew which wires are the the turn signals, reverse and dome light on the driver side footwell.

@joshpinon7896 2 года назад

Surprised you haven’t swapped your license plate lights to LEDs yet. In the “after shots” there looked like there was a yellow light on the floor behind your truck, what was that from?

@davidnguyen7693 2 года назад

Great video! Did VLED provide you with a discount code?

@josephl8998 4 месяца назад

Wish you would have shown a before and after back up camera light output difference.

@MF-qx9fn Год назад

Are these compatible with the total tailight kit that uses the reverse bulb housing for turn signals?

@chintufat Год назад

Does these light wash out the rear view camera view?

@MrJo2trs 2 года назад

Hi Chloe. Great job on your vids! I wanted to ask the easy trail route down south of SD around Otay. Last month, i watch that video and I couldn’t find it anymore. Anyway, i wanted to know the exact location or a pin drop please…i will appreciate it.

@johnlov7609 Год назад

Is there a link for the Tacoma wire harness you used in the video? The supplied harness looks Different for the video. Sorry if someone already asked but there are so many comments here.
