    As far as looking "good" goes, my opinion would have no be no. I think the bright white looks way better than an orange on a silver or ssm truck. You have to do what YOU think looks good and what YOU like though. I'm uncertain if those will fit correctly on your truck.

    What do you mean by fit correctly? Like looks wise or fit wise?

    Thanks!

    Whoops, I misread your post due to multitasking at work while answering.
    I was referring to "fit wise" but after rereading your post, you didn't ask about that. haha my bad.

    Haha. The good old dayz!

    Those lights are too flashy for me. Especially since the nice ones are expensive. I'd rather spend my coin on something useful, but that's me. Only way Id sport them is if I got them free or REALLY cheap!

    In that case I think the orange would fit the silver/black of your truck just fine. Looks like your current ones are hazed over in you sig pic so they'll definitely look better than those! :)

    Yeah that is why I've been looking to replace them. I think they would look good if I got amber pods in my fog light location.

    Thanks!

    Wouldn't it cost less to use a little sandpaper or toothpaste on your lights? You already know the light bar investment was better than headlights. So why headlights?

    I want some I can use on the road. I've tried restoring mine quite a bit plus I've wanted to retrofit for the looks of the black lights and it looks like a great price.

    Ok, I'll try to clarify.

    1) You asked if they would look good on your silver truck.
    2) I replied that I think a bright white would look better than orange so my vote/opinion was not to buy them.
    3) I also misread your original post and said in my reply that I wasn't sure if the orange lights you were on the fence about buying would fit properly on your truck or not.

    If I'm recalling correctly, not all 2nd Gen Tacomas have interchangeable parts. 2005 - 2011/2012(I can't remember which year) are the same. After that there were some changes depending on the parts.
