    What size halos? I'm seeing they come with that shroud in 80mm or 100mm.

    All these lights look to damn good. I keep telling myself no. Not sure I can not do it. Only thing truly holding me back is my truck is my only vehicle. Riding my motorcycle everyday isn't going to happen. Anyone got a line on affordable temp lights for 2012+

    Where can you buy these?

    Update. I found a site called Dash Z that sells the retro fit lights. Any experience?

    ran into this thread last week and it reminded me that I had a set of FX-R's to cut in. Now I know it's not a Taco so I'll show my Taco lights from last fall, along with my Tundra's too. It's pretty hard to compete with the retrofit pros, but I'm happy with how they turned out.

    Never heard of them, so they're probably just generic parts.

    These aren't retrofits.

    [​IMG]

    They're manufactured this way, and they're basically rebranded "projector headlights." I've got 2 friends who both god rid of these style headlights within 1 year of owning them. Both friends had some of their halos burn out and they both hated the projector output. They were 'cool' when they first came to the market years ago, but they're pretty janky compared to a properly retrofitted set of headlights.

    Generic parts. Better than those "projector style" lights but nowhere near a quality setup.
