Fitment: 2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma ✔
Introducing the Morimoto 2Banger Ditch Light Kit -- your gateway to enhanced visibility and style on the road. With precision engineering and a focus on fitment, this kit is tailor-made for your 16-23 Toyota Tacoma. Its compact design means more light where you need it, from long-range spotlights to side-illuminating ditch lights.
The proprietary 2Banger LED pods offer two performance tiers, white or yellow output, and four beam patterns to suit every driving style. But versatility is where it truly shines. Mount them alone or link them into a powerful light bar, and with the optional BangerBar links, you customize the color, beam optics, and radius. Whether it's the HXB Spot's incredible long-range reach or the NCS Wide Beam's road-compliant fog light performance, Morimoto's got you covered. Designed for all-weather reliability, this system is built to last, with an IP69K weather resistance rating. Plus, it's street-legal, meeting SAE standards for auxiliary high beams and fog lights. Power up with the optional wire harness for peak performance.
Included:
✔ Ditch Brackets : 2x (One Pair) BAF028 Brackets
✔ Hardware : 6x Plastic cable clips
✔ Optional LED Pods : 2x Morimoto 2Banger (Optional Color / Beam)
✔ Optional Wiring : 1x Morimoto Power Harness or 2x Deutsch DT pigtails
Bolt on Brighter: The Morimoto 2Banger Ditch Light Kit is the perfect solution for more light, aimed exactly where you want it. From long-range spot-lights for high speed driving to ditch lights to illuminate the side of the road, our A-Pillar kit is all about versatility. Select a set of high performance 2Banger LED pods in your choice of beam pattern, pair that with the brackets to make installation a breeze, and power it properly with our switched wire harness.
Engineered Fitment: Morimoto's A-Pillar kit for the 16-23 Toyota Tacoma has been through numerous rounds of design, prototyping and testing directly on the truck to ensure perfect compatibility. Everything lines up with pre-existing mounting points to create an installation that is truly modification-free. Guaranteed. Yes, we agree this is a basic requirement, but you wouldn't believe the poor fitment we encountered from other well-known brands during development. It was mind blowing.
Branches Beware: Each bracket is laser cut from 304 stainless steel, then powder coated. Put simply, the side mirrors on your Ram will rip off way before our A-Pillar kit even flexes a muscle.
Versatility: The 2Banger can be mounted alone, or linked together into a serious light bar. Each set of pods includes universal pedestal mounts for an easy install on any flat surface, like your steel bumper or the the wide-variety of application-specific A-Pillar brackets we offer. The BangerBar links offer a turn-key way to bolt your Bangers together into a bespoke light bar, where you spec the color of the light. You spec the beam optics. You set the radius. And then you destroy the darkness. For more details, look for product listings dedicated to the BangerBars.
HXB Spot Beam: Illuminates far into the distance unlike anything else in their class. The HXB Spot comes standard with the most powerful Osram LEDs, which in combination with their advanced optics produces a beam pattern capable of penetrating up to 700 meters into your future. You will have a hard time out-running your ability to see with the 2Banger HXB Spots.
HXB Combo Beam: Illuminates a clear path with medium range. The HXB Combo beam provides a blend of width and distance illumination making every day driving in the middle of nowhere far more comfortable. The hot spot and spread has been perfectly tuned to produce an ideal combo beam. The 2Banger HXB Combo is an excellent aid to any set of high-performance headlights.
HXB Wide Beam: Illuminates the ground directly in front of the vehicle. The 2Banger Wide beam optics feature dual axis control. 1) for width, and 2) active hot spot control to project peak intensity right along the top of the beam pattern. The proper cutoff line and vertical gradient easily passes the latest SAE F regulation for safe and legal use as a fog light on public roads. The 2Banger HXB Wide beam delivers best-in-class combination of width, intensity, making it the most effective off-road capable, on-road compliant Dual-LED pod light in the world.
HXB Flood Beam: Provides plenty of ambient light with coverage in every direction, making them the perfect solution for low-speed driving, rock crawling, back-up lights, or even illuminating your campgrounds. Flood optics do not project far into the distance, but are the undoubtedly the weapon of choice for comfortably illuminating everything in your local space.
NCS Spot Beam: Illuminates well into the distance. The NCS Spot features a highly focused 5-degree hot spot that's surrounded by a 14H x 4C degree flood beam, making it the perfect weapon for long range visibility. While not quite as powerful as the HXB Spot (which uses Osram LEDs), when paired up with a set of NCS Combos, you will have no problems avoiding deer in the distance.
NCS Combo Beam: Illuminates a clear path with medium range. The NCS Combo beam provides a blend of width and distance illumination making every day driving in the middle of nowhere far more comfortable. The oval hot spot and spread at beam center has been perfectly tuned to produce an ideal flood beam. The 2Banger NCS Combo is an excellent aid to any set of high-performance headlights.
NCS Wide Beam: Illuminates the ground directly in front of the vehicle, making them a perfect complement to a set of high-performance Morimoto headlights. They produce a very wide beam to drastically improve visibility off to the sides of the road. Superior vertical gradient control eliminates glare to oncoming traffic, and when mounted in the fog light position and aimed appropriately, will meet the latest SAE standards for safe, legal use as a fog light on public roads.
