Frontier LED's will be along bottom edge of lamp assy, instead of top edge as shown on Tundra..

I'd like to add something like these switchback led strips from ijdmtoy:

Side Glow Switchback LED Strips | Daytime Running, Turn Signal Lights

They wedge between the bottom of the headlight housing and the bumper/valnace. It's pretty tight between the two, so you would probably need a screwdriver to initially mount and position the led strip.

Who does that. I like the style, but would like it underneath the light assembly.

I like the white and amber change. Very cool.

Yes, the LED's strips I purchased will be installed underneath the Head Lamp Assy. Until I have the time to get the headlamp assys out, I have not decided whether it will best work attaching directly to bottom leading edge of headlamp assy, or to top edge of the upper bumper body trim piece. Have to wait for cold weather to pass, and get some 3M Promoter in my hands, before taking everything apart to get it done.. The strips I have, are exactly the length needed to go under headlamp assy from bottom inside corner, to rear back corner edge below side amber reflector.

I would not install these without using 3M Promoter, and removing the headlamp assy, before you do the job. You need to thoroughly clean the surface before applying the promoter. Without the proper prep, they may stay down for awhile, but after time, weather, etc. will get under the leading edge and the strip will eventually start to separate from the surface.

I m looking forward to seeing the end result. Where did you order them from?
