Spread Holiday Cheer with LED lights!

Very easy setup if you have crossbars. Simply connect the string to the outlet(s) and control the outlet timer from the Energy screen. Share your designs here! Happy Holidays Everyone!

Just make sure they don’t flash! A friendly cop also suggested taping up the blues. I just covered them with electrical tape.

Good point on the flashing part!

Did the same last weekend but went retro style Christmas lights.

Manual tonneau left just enough space for the cord to make it to the outlet too Those Rivian engineers, always thinking!

Also, was kinda cool a couple days ago, had a new neighbor come up with her dog while I was out with the truck, and remarked how she thought it was really nice, and brought a smile to her face at the end of the day. Long story short, do it for your neighbors

Those of us, with the R1S are out of luck unless we have crossbars! I zip tied mine to the crossbar anchors but still need a way to make them more visible!

Thought about running a small white mini set along the roof where the anchors are with zip ties too, but haven't gotten there yet. This weekend maybe!

Has anyone done this on their R1S? I have the crossbars. For now I just have the red nose.

These are last years pictures but my setup is identical again this year for those that are new to the forum

Here is mine

I got a 5W LED string at Target that’s 22 feet long. Ran an extension cord from the 2nd row outlet through the driver’s seat back pocket and up out between the two doors. I taped it down to the B pillar to come up right between the doors - seems fairly protected by the door gaskets. Then twist tied it inside the front bar and ran the lights from there, looping them a bit around each bar and twist tying them to the middle mount points on each side. It just makes the full loop. Nice that I can set the outlet to stay on for a few hours in the evening in my driveway.

Edit to add: unfortunately the only extension cord I had on hand was white - you can see it running up from the doors to the bar.

From mine last year, I designed and 3D printed brackets to hold each bulb upright.
