This is pretty straight forward, you just need to make sure that you follow the directions. If you're installing an aftermarket 3rd brake light like this, amzn.to/3Sok8xl, you will still generally follow the same process. However, the following directions are specific only to the 3rd gen Toyota Tacoma. If you are using this guide for a different vehicle, be sure to find the correct wiring diagram for your brake lights.
Universal 3rd Break Light: amzn.to/3vPT4hs
Tools Needed:
- Socket
- Wire
- Electrical Tape
- Splicing and splitting tool: amzn.to/41ZUm5L
- Disconnect plug: amzn.to/3vHXozt
- T-tap: amzn.to/47A16s4
- Heat shrink: amzn.to/48I8Byv
- Patience.
Basic need to know:
- On a Toyota Tacoma the blue wire is positive (power)
- Green is negative (ground)
- If you are not tapping the green grounding wire, be sure to ground your cap or extra brakes wire to a bolt that contacts the trucks body.

I wouldn't recommend anyone let a licensed electrician work on their truck. Lol. 😂

Just trying to protect myself from any would-be blame when someone doesn't follow directions and turns their truck into a barbecue lol

@tacosauce4x4 nice. Well a licensed mechanic probably better option. Most electricians can't solder.

what about the interior lighting on the alucab canopy? How does it get wired? I think the wiring for that was on the left side where you first started.

@tacosauce4x4 11 месяцев назад
It's pre-wired and then is run down to the driver side tailgate. I then popped out the cubby hole thing, added a fused relay to it mounted on the inside of the bed, and ran that through the truck back to the battery.

@tacosauce4x4 Is there a need to increase the fuse size when adding additional lights to an OEM setup like this, or are the lights so small, they're just not drawing enough power for it to matter?

So far no

I have connected 2 wires to yellow wire and green wire and my aux 3rd light only lights up witht he parking light or head light. There are only yellow, green and black wire for the stop light

Sounds like you connected it to the running light wires

Can you go into the fuse box i don’t want to cut into my wires.
@tacosauce4x4
@tacosauce4x4 10 месяцев назад
Nope. The only other possibility would be a T tap, but that still "cuts" the wire.

Did you have any problem with the bed stiffeners, I had a warranty my canopy because of the welds breaking at the rear that Alucab attributed to the bed stiffeners.
@tacosauce4x4
@tacosauce4x4 7 месяцев назад
Not sure what stiffners you have, but I don't possibly see how that could lead to cracks in a cap? Doesn't make any sense tbh. If anything I would think stopping flex should be a good thing for the cap as it's stopping the cap/welds from flexing. I can't believe Alu cab would claim that.

@@tacosauce4x4 this is the second time it has happed to me and so I am on my 3rd canopy, so they stand by their product. But I agree with you that is why I installed bed stiffners initially but I removed them for this new canopy so we will see......

so what happens when you turn on the right turn signal?
@tacosauce4x4
@tacosauce4x4 8 месяцев назад
It still works. We tapped the brake light, not the turn signal

Doesn’t work on all trucks, most. Some cars & trucks have a brake/turn bulb + running bulb. You can’t tap into these as they will blink with the corresponding bulb you tapped into. Experienced this first hand with the camper on my 95 k1500
