Where to buy lighted running boards?

[dibble9012]

Where can I purchase the OEM lighted running boards for an 05 double cab tundra? I need them color-keyed to phantom gray pearl. Also, how easy are they to install, do I just tap into the Cargo lamp circuit, where would the tap location be? I have the side curtain airbags, so tapping in the ceiling is out of the question.

Thanks!!

If you haven't already tried a local dealership's Parts Department, you might have success at Texas Toyota of Grapevine. That's where I got mine after my dealership told me they had no clue . If you don't find it listed on the site, leave a message under Contact Us or call the number there and ask for Kevin in Wholesale.

Since it's the same running boards, Sequoia, rather than Tundra-specific installation instructions may be included in the box. If so, you can access instructions for the Tundra from the TS Knowledge Base (must be a subscriber to access).

The electrical connection is T-tapped off the wires to the underdash "step light" between the steering column and driver's door. The RB lights then follow the interior lights, including fade-to-off. Post back once you've got the boards and I'll give you a few more tips.

so I am guessing it is the same install process for the 04/05 since there are no 05 specific instructions. Thanks for the link!, I was looking for the instructions, but forgot where I saw them last, lol.

If you dont mind me asking, about how much did the lighted running boards set you back?

Pricewise, to be fair to other sources who may be able to give you a quote, let's just say it was "in the neighborhood" of the "dealer cost" (vs. MSRP) listed for that option on sites like edmunds, KBB, NADA, etc. that let you "build your own" new vehicle. If that's too much trouble, go ahead and contact Kevin as described above for a quick response with an exact number that'll probably include shipping.
