The Stage Series Rear Bumper Reverse Light Kit for the 2024+ Toyota Tacoma delivers a clean, factory-style upgrade with serious functionality. By mounting two high-output LED pods beneath the rear bumper and connecting through the factory 7-pin harness, this kit adds a powerful reverse light, a red running light, and—when equipped with the C1R—an optional 4th brake light. Designed and assembled by Diode Dynamics, it’s a straightforward way to dramatically improve rear visibility.
