    For future reference to anyone trying to install these lights (or anything electrical) I suggest you DO NOT plug in the hot connecting wires before snaking any and all wires to the locations you need since you will most likely short out the wires when you touch them together either by taping them or just touching them to pass them thru whatever space you need to. I suspect that's what happened here when you blew the fuse since you plugged in the wire harness where the existing light is before placing all the cables where they needed to go. Thanks for the installation help and hints of installing these lights.

    Amazing installation video and so much easier than a lot of the other videos. I ended up snaking it through the left grommet as the right one was just too tight. Buddy taping it to a zip tie and pushing rather than pulling was the way to go. The key was taking it slowly and not losing my patience! Thanks for a really helpful video. I don't think I would have tried without your video!

    Thank you, thank you for this video! It just walked me through the process - I did the trailer wiring at the same time. A bit over 2 hours for both. My only major glitch with the lights was getting the wire through that short flex tube - same problem you had. I got it through with the black covering on thanks to WD-40. The lube did the trick.

    Next time you need to go through a wiring boot: fish a large zip tie though, tape (with electrical tape) the wire to fish to that, lube over the tape with a little bit of something like sunscreen.. it will slip right through

    • @EVDude
      @EVDude  Před 3 lety

    BIG DISCLAIMER for installing the rear hatch lights on the RAV4 2022 models: they have changed the plugs on the 2022+ RAV4s and the wiring harness/piggy-back plug used on these lighting kits will not work (the new plug is way smaller). I took off the entire trim, installed and routed the entire cable before discovering this, and had to manually re-wire/solder the wiring harness with my own connector to make it work (not particularly hard, but definitely not plug-and-play. Thankfully, they appear to be running the same power, so no issues once the plugs were changed over.
    If you're looking to install this on a 2022+ model of RAV4, just be aware it likely won't fit if you buy a kit previously made for a 2019-2021 model, unless they update the wiring harness supplied with them!

      YES!!! I was about to buy these and after trying to install upgraded interior LED lights into my 2022 which didn’t work due to all videos showed swaps made on earlier model rav4s. I just knew mine would not work with these. Thank you for saving me time and confirming this issue! 😊👍

    I'm wondering if these can be somehow retrofitted to the prev Rav4 generations. I have a 2016 Limited AWD and can't find these liftgate lights even though they have the same trim covers with slightly diff shape.

    15:14 instead of fishing the zip tie out, do it the other way around. just insert the tie from that hole!
    Anyways, love your videos and jealous of the prime! Opted for the hybrid xse instead cuz there was 2 years wait for the prime 🤦🏻‍♂️

    • @EVDude
      @EVDude  Před 3 lety +1

      Thanks for the tip and for watching my videos. Yeah it's very unfortunate about the wait time for the Prime. Maybe you can still put a deposit and sell your Hybrid RAV4 when you get the Prime? Resell value on Toyota's are usually pretty good.

    Are you worried that making these modifications will void your car warranty? If anything happens to the car's electronics, I can see Toyota blaming it on the modifications.
