Coverage by product
| Product or component | Coverage |

What's covered
- Defective products are replaced with the same item, or a comparable one if it's been discontinued
- Diode Dynamics may replace just the failed component
- Finish defects caused by manufacturing, during the first 3 years
- Moisture beyond normal condensation that points to a seal failure, at Diode Dynamics' discretion
- Free tech support for the life of the product, even after the warranty ends
What's not covered
- Normal condensation, and paint or coating wear from regular use
- Installation or labor costs
- Improper installation or use, abuse, or opening, rewiring or repairing a product
- Swapping lenses on Stage Series lights voids the 3-year coverage (the 8-year coverage stays)
- Purchases from unauthorized sellers; coverage is for the original buyer and isn't transferable
How to make a Diode Dynamics claim
- Keep your proof of purchase; every claim needs it (gift recipients can register within 90 days of the original purchase instead)
- Request an RMA through Diode Dynamics' returns portal and work through diagnosis with their support team
- Nothing goes back without an RMA number; include photos for moisture claims
- For US customers, Diode Dynamics covers shipping on 3-year claims, plus return shipping for inspection on 8-year and lifetime claims

The Diode Dynamics Stage Series Backlit Ditch Light Kit mounts a pair of Stage Series LED pods above the hood of the 2024-2026 Toyota Tacoma and 2025-2026 Toyota 4Runner, using factory mounting points so nothing gets drilled. Ditch lights cover the edges of the trail and the inside of tight corners, which is exactly where headlights and a bar out front come up short. The brackets are thick-gauge stainless steel and the profile stays low.
Why it works
- Bolt-on install on factory mounting points above the hood
- Patented TIR optics push more light where you want it with less glare coming back at you
- Backlit pods, so you get an accent light as well as the main beam
- IP69K rated against water and high-pressure washing, and tested to the SAE J575 durability standard
- Constant-current drivers and Deutsch DT input connectors
- Made in USA with global materials
Options
Pick the pod and power level first, then the color. Bracket Only is for anyone who already owns compatible Stage Series pods. Complete kits come with C2 2.0 Sport (15 W), C2 2.0 Pro (23 W), SS3 Sport (14.5 W) or SS3 Pro (36 W) pods (wattage per pod). Sport is the efficient, everyday pick; Pro is the brighter step up. Color is White (6000K) or Yellow (3000K). White kits use a combo/driving pattern; yellow is combo (driving plus flood). Yellow cuts through dust, rain and snow with less glare.

Diode Dynamics Stage Series Backlit Ditch Light Kit for 2025-2026 Toyota 4Runner & 2024-2026 Toyota Tacoma FAQs
Do I have to drill anything on my Tacoma or 4Runner?
No. The brackets bolt to factory mounting points above the hood.
What does the Bracket Only option include?
Just the stainless mounting brackets, for people who already own compatible Stage Series pods. The other options include the pods.
Should I get white or yellow?
White (6000K) is the brighter, crisper color for clear nights. Yellow (3000K) is easier on the eyes in dust, rain and snow.
What is the difference between Sport and Pro?
Pro pods draw more power and put out much more light. Diode lists the white combo at 1,190 lumens for Sport and 3,140 lumens for Pro.
Which pod is right for my truck?
It comes down to how much light you want above the hood and how big a pod you like the look of. Call or text the real humans at NVMOS, (920) 249-7744.
