    Hi, just got a new 2020 TRD Sport and looking to replace the fog lights. What have you done, what do you recommend?

    I had Morimoto XB before and although not bad, they really where not all that bright. Just put some Rigid fogs on my Tundra and they are crazy bright. Does the Tacoma have a replacement bezel or anything to change it from a circle to square design?

    What else is there? Thanks..!

    Adapters exist for Rigid, Baja Designs, and KC and all three sell it as kits.

    I personally like the fact Rigid has SAE lights that are on-road legal and supposedly pass state inspections but all three sell quality lights that will blow the doors of your OEM ones. Just don't be that dick that puts spots or lights that don't have the vertical beam cut off and roll around town with them on.

    Nearly every fog is reviewed here.

    Rigid just launched new 4” round fogs that look promising as the highest output on the market and are street legal. They will be posted to that thread very soon.

    Probably more of a fog light. Want it to be street "legal", but as bright as I can. The Rigid I just did on my Tundras is crazy bright. Wasn't sure if something like that was available on the Tacoma.

    Rago Fabrication makes brackets to put the same Rigid SAE D-series fogs on the Tacoma. The new Rigid 360s just launched mount in the factory spot and are rated 76% higher output than the Rigid SAE D-series.

    Would that be these: Only thing I'm not sure of is the wiring to separate switch. Could I just get a harness to plug into the existing plug so that it works like the factory fogs?

    Yes, that is the one. I'm not sure if that specific kit comes with the connector to plug into the factory fog socket. CaliRaised sells them: https://caliraisedled.com/products/12-15-toyota-tacoma-fog-light-pod-connector

    Those SAE D-series are 1760 raw lumens, the new Rigid SAE 360s which will mount in the OEM location with a mount kit at 3100 lumens:
