    Hello all,

    I have been on the market for a replacement TRD Pro Grille for my 2020 ORP (disregard the 4Runner in my profile pic, was totaled by a drunk driver on New Years). I see a few non-oem options for this upgrade, many of which include raptor lights at a discounted bundle price. I was wondering if anyone had any experience/input for which kit is the best choice. I have linked some below.

You could choose btw 3 or 4 raptor lights in smoked or clear white , and smoked or clear amber. I went with 3 smoked amber lights. They stick out and don’t fit inside the grille diamonds, which is fine, but all the install videos I’ve found use some other kind of lights.

    Sorry for the winter road grime. I’m happy with the product.

    I second caitcards90. I went with 4Runner Lifestyle as well. Fast shipping, easy install, and awesome products. I chose the black Toyota writing as well with the 3 Amber lights.

    Excellent, thank you! Was planning on getting the smoked amber lights as well, and the black lettering looks so good too. I may have a winner!

    Thank you to you as well. Love the look of the alpharex nova headlights and aiden james bezel lights. Recently got some alpharex pros and hoping to have the bezel lights someday too to have a similar look.

    For either of you: did the raptor lights come entirely plug and play? With a fuse and everything?

    Yes correct!!! Plug and play with fuse. You will definitely love the AlphaRex Headlights. Super easy install as well. I am really digging the Aiden James Fog Light Bezels. I have the Switchbacks. Just installed them. Let us know who you decide to go with for your Grille and Raptor lights. Post pics too.

    Dang, those Aiden James fog bezel LEDs are pretty cool! Haven't seen those yet.

    I wonder how they would look with my 2020 DRLs on just above them, though..
    I wouldn't want to turn the OE DRLs off because I actually think they're badass.

    Thanks ! I think they would look great with your DRLs. Aiden James offers Amber, White, or Switchbacks. I have the switchbacks. White when the car is on and Amber when the signals or hazards are on. Gives the Runner a nicer look in my opinion!!

    I really want the bezel lights as well! I feel like I’d want only amber to match my amber raptor lights, and ideally disable my DRLs / get better headlights

    Anyone have any updates on this? 4Runner Lifestyle is the one I used on my 2021. Leased a 2024 and wanted to do the same upgrade, but they no longer offer it with the letters. Do I shell out $233 for the Pro grille/3 Raptor lights from 4Runner Lifestyle and $25 for the letters (4RUNNER) from another supplier or go with KOK and the standard "Toyota" letters for $180?

    I got mine from Yota Expedition. Good quality, easy installation. They have install videos on the website. I am very happy with it.

    Thanks! I was looking at those as well. I need the whole grille and light kit though, not just the letters. The grille/light/letters all went to the dealership with the trade in.

    edit: went with these (Raptor lights/grille from 4Runner lifestyle and letters from Etsy.) Going to change the Ns to lower case though, they’re fine for now. See below
