    Ok...just an update: Lights are installed and working fine. I've never layed my hands on the actual OEM lights, so I can't tell you how mine compare to the real thing. But for $110 these don't seem too bad to me. They fit the openings just fine. The wiring harness comes with no instructions...but if you have a basic knowledge of wiring it's not hard to figure out. I didn't bother with the switch that came with them. Instead, I went with the $10 Toyota rocker switch (I wasn't paying $50+ dollars for the OE switch) and modified the wire harness to work with that switch. If you didn't know better you'd think it was stock. The orange LED on the switch even matches the rest of the IP lights.

    So far, so good. They're nice and "yellow" when lit...which is what I wanted. If I have any issues in the near future, I'll post up. :thumbsup:

    I would like to thank everyone for telling me/us about your experiences, comments and opinions. I just may give it a try and purchase the fogs from ebay as my main objective is to simply "fill the void" where the grills are located as my truck did not come with the fog lights. I do not need the extra lights as I upgraded my head lights to HIDs, and what a difference they make.

    Thanks again and enjoy your holiday!:cheers:
    Bob
