Overview Gear up for your next adventure with the Diode Dynamics X Kuat DEK Roof Rack for the Toyota Tacoma! Whether tackling rugged trails, embarking on a weekend camping trip, or loading up gear for a cross-country road trip, the DEK delivers the perfect blend of style, utility, and performance, both day and night. The DEK was custom-fabricated to seamlessly integrate lighting into the rack for an OEM-style appearance. Adventure Ready. The DEK roof rack offers an unparalleled rooftop cargo experience with a modular, low-profile design that transforms your Tacoma into a capable adventure vehicle. Built from durable yet lightweight metal, the DEK features adjustable crossbars, generous T-channels for mounting accessories, and a simple, direct-mount installation. No drilling is required. Choose Your Lighting Setup. The DEK Roof Rack is available with two integrated lighting configurations: the SS5 CrossLink LED lightbar or a Stage Series LED lightbar. The SS5 CrossLink option links seven SS5 LED pods into a single aggressive-looking lightbar, while the Stage Series option mounts an SS40 Stage Series LED lightbar for a cleaner, low-profile appearance. Each LED lightbar option is engineered from the ground up using modern optical, thermal, and circuit board technologies. Unlike traditional reflector-based designs, Diode Dynamics’ TIR optics capture and focus nearly all of the light output, directing it precisely where you need it without glare or wasted light. Functional Light Output. Every beam pattern is engineered for real-world conditions to provide usable light output in the areas that matter most. The Stage Series LED lightbars feature our all-new Combo/Driving pattern, designed to blend distance and width into one balanced beam pattern. Unlike other options on the market that combine two patterns, resulting in a less-than-desirable harsh hotspot and a flood or wide pattern with unwanted glare and wasted light, our new Combo/Driving optic uses dozens of carefully-designed pillow optics to produce a blended, even output that measures 60x30 degrees, providing throw downrange with ample foreground illumination. The SS5 CrossLink LED lightbars feature our Driving pattern, which provides extra punch and distance ahead, without being a tight spot pattern. The Driving pattern is a slightly broad-spot that balances reach and width with a spread of 30x20 degrees. Fully Illuminated Backlight. Both lighting options include a fully illuminated backlight that lights up the TIR optic when the main beam is off, creating a unique accent appearance not found on other LED lightbars. The White Stage Series option includes an amber-only backlight with no startup sequence, offering a distinctive look and improved visibility when stopped on the trail. The Dual-Color Stage Series and SS5 CrossLink options feature a selectable multicolor backlight with eight color choices. The Dual-Color Stage Series lightbar combines amber outer segments with selectable multicolor inner segments and includes a dynamic startup sequence. Selecting your CrossLink or SmartSelect backlight color is simple—just cycle the power on and off. No controllers or complex programming required. Choose Your Color. Stage Series lightbars are available in White or Dual-Color configurations. The white option delivers a true 6000K cool white output that matches most factory LEDs. The Dual-Color option features cool white inner segments and selective yellow outer segments. Thanks to patented SmartSelect technology, the Dual-Color option allows you to run the inner segments only, outer segments only, or the full lightbar—without extra wiring or additional switches. Simply cycle the main beam power to select your desired mode. Interchangeable Lens. Want to change your beam pattern or color? Interchangeable lenses make it easy to customize your LED lightbar with available replacement lenses. Sport or Pro. The Stage Series lightbar options are available in Sport or Pro power levels. Both utilize high-intensity, automotive-grade LED emitters and advanced TIR optics. The Sport model delivers excellent value, while the Pro model provides a noticeable increase in power and output. Snap-On Covers. For states that require them, optional snap-on covers are available for both SS5 Pods and Stage Series lightbars. These covers come in multiple colors and protect your lights from dirt, dust, and debris. Proven Reliability. Stage Series LED lighting is tested for long-term operation from -40 to 185 degrees Fahrenheit and validated through vibration, moisture intrusion, and corrosion testing. All testing is completed to SAE standards and proven by real-world use from racers and enthusiasts. Experience.
