    Opps, I guess i missed the headlight part.

    When i had to rebuild my starter i just replaced the contacts. I guess my plunger was fine because it wasnt making a clicking noise at all.

    It $20 if you do it yourself, Toyota charges something like $100 to re-build.

    Bullshit again, 55w headlights use 10.45 volts per one. 35w are the same but less amperage. They pull around 7 amps. And if the battery was dying, his headlights would be dim. He said there bright and function well, hence there is at least 10 volts charged on it. I'm 90% its his starter

    I.understand you need a steady 12v to run the starter but I highly doubt his battery just dropped 2 volts only. Plus 1st gen tacoma starters are notorious for those symptons.

    It was really easy , not hard at all . I did it 3 times in one day, I did the blue first, but did not look as good. then i for got to plug in the hazard /blinkers so I took it all apart. first time about 45 minutes . second ,half hour . 3rd I swear like 15 minutes.
