    I bought a set of LED Conversion Kit for my 2013 Toyota Tacoma and I must say the guy I ordered my LED headlights from was nice to do business with. He shipped the headlights out pretty quick and my headlights arrived in about three days. I installed the headlights as soon as I received them. The light is quite bright. What I was hoping for was that I would be able to see further down the road with this set of LED as compare to the stock bulbs. I know I was somewhat delusional to be hoping for something without knowing much about it. I installed them and Took it for a spin down a country road and I could only see as far as ahead as my stock bulbs. The Hi beams aren't that much better either. Well..., maybe I should not place the blame on the LED lightbulbs but the headlight housings for not projecting lights to where it should go?

    Looks like white light... and that alone is an improvement over yellowish-white halogen, yes? It would be nice if you got further illumination... but then that would make them more like off road or rally lights, and get you a ticket?/.

    Can you post a picture of what the LED 'bulb' looks like, turned off and inside the Tacoma lamp?

    I'll see if I can snap a close shot of it inside the headlight housing when I get a chance. Here's the link to their different bulbs.
