    My 06 doesn't even illuminate those lights unless turning. I want to get the Toyota harness and and led setup.

    I think the led is a good idea for anyone.

    I'm in San Clemente too. Which dealer changed your headlights for free if you don't mind me asking? Maybe I can get them to do mine!

    12's do not have a dtrl-off position on the switch; mine are on full time.

    My 2010 showed melting at 75000 and had them replaced just in time to trade it for a 2015 with DTRL switch.
    The majority of driving is daytime so my dtrl were always on.
    The more you drive with the headlights on may keep them from melting as soon.
