    I absolutely love my Morimoto 2 Stroke H11 LED Bulbs I got off of @TRSAndrew and The Retrofit Source. They have a great output and a clean cutoff line with our factory projectors!!!

    Here are some output shots of just the low beams at night!!! https://www.theretrofitsource.com/led-lighting/led-bulbs/h11-morimoto-2stroke.html

    And here is a shot of my 2 Stroke LED Low beams paired with my Morimoto XB LED Fog Lights!!! https://www.theretrofitsource.com/toyota-oval-morimoto-xb-led.html

    There's a sticky thread at the top that's titled "LED Lighting Conversion" which contains a great deal of LED lighting info and recommendations for headlights and other lighting.

    That's all he said she said, just another thing to scare people LOL!!! Have been running them for a few months since they came out and haven't had one single issue! BTW I believe that person that was having trouble with the lights they were HID not LED!!

    I have been running HIDs in my previous vehicle Toyotas and Audis... How does HID cause problem on Tacoma? High voltage pulse interfering with engine pulse?

    Read the following threads:

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/led-headlights-from-trs-culprit-for-engine-failure.428765
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/dead-truck-after-1600-miles.453862

    Apparently, Toyota changed the headlight circuit on the 3rd gens to interface with the ECU for the auto headlights.

    @moe2o4 may not have this circuit because he has the basic SR model.
