    BUT......I ran gen 2 halos on the 05 and have a spare pr left after trading it in on the 08 so they could make it on there eventually. Inner conflict in progress on this.........

    BHLM and retro fit projectors into them, screw just mounting HID's in the stock housing. I want to get out the truck and punch the driver everytime I see that cause it blinds the hell out of people. HID's are NOT meant to be used in the stock Tacoma housing. Don't go the cheap, easy way, do it right or don't do it at all.

    Plus, there's a group buy thread going on for projectors...:cool:
