Default I want Rumion tail lights.

Any ideas where to get them? No, I don't want to fly over and get them.

Any help would be great.

Thanks in advance.

There are others that have done it.

The only thing I regret about getting them is wiring in the reverse. I hate wiring.

What was involved in wiring in the reverse?
Did you splice off the existing bumper light?
Where/how is the wiring routed?
I need to know how tough or involved the wiring is before making a purchasing decision.

Thanks for any info you can help with.

I have not installed yet but will on Friday and I will post my install. The other guy motorcade said it was not bad. I looked and it seems all the wiring is there just have to change a few in the plug.

Silver.

^ probably because he doesnt want to see Rumion taillights popping up everywhere on xBs. some people like to have rare stuff on their cars but when the word gets out, its not rare anymore.

He talks about selling kits, with a little custom filler piece, so he's probably not too worried about others having the same lights.

I hear ya.. there are plenty of people who have them now anyways..
Too bad I got the LED ones 2 months ago or I'd get there Rumion ones.. as far as the wiring goes,, All it would take is some time.. only 3 wires going to the 1157 bulbs... 2 going to a 1156 or equilivant.. You already know what the wires are from your existing wiring.. just a matter of splicing into your existing back up lite & running an extra 2 wires over to the passanger side.. It's not hard.. just do one bulb at a time & test every connection... just takes time.. one at a time. I'd be glad to help anyone do it if you're close to St Louis..., but I am liking my LED tails too much to sell them used & re=purchase Rumion NON led tails.. good luck to all those who do, i think they look great as well!!!

He called the back-up light wiring, "like a 5 min job to hook up. very simple"

What you're talking about jimmbomb doesn't sound difficult, but it seems
like it would take a he11 of a lot more than 5 minutes.

Come on over to TX and help me out this afternoon. I will send my jet to pick you up. lmk/lol. Thanks for the offer but after looking at it the wires are already there it is just a matter of hooking them into the plug.

Well that was mighty nice of them... can we get any pics?
I'd also like to see a close-up of the installed light to see what the gap is all about that motorcade said needs a filler piece. I would have thought that Toyota would have made the sheet metal and the light fixture sizes exactly the same for the xB and Rumion.
