    Yup. Don't bother.

    There's a whole LED thread where I've voiced my opinion, and people have done some good research.

    I tried the OPT7, and 3-4 other brands of LED headlights and they all don't come close to comparing with the HIDs output.

    If you're looking to upgrade, get the Morimoto 35w HID setup with 4500k-5500k bulbs. I have 5500k and they're a little cool for me, but my morimoto xb fogs are 6000k so they nearly match.

    Damn those are expensive, thats HID kit territory.

    I went with these, almost 5 stars review: NINEO H11 LED Headlight Bulb, H8 H9 CREE XPL Chip, Cool White Conversion Kit 60W 6000K 7,200Lm - 3 Yr Warranty https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MDOWGY3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_ADCfzbPF8BK1B

    Don't go procomp. There's way more options better than procomp. If you're looking to not go too expensive, get 5100s and some new OME coils and a leaf pack. If you have a better budget, go for Kings, that's what I just did and waiting for them to come in. I went through Wheelers and they give a forum discount.

    Yup, OPT7 led headlights where no good for me, I decided to purchase a $40 Amazon HID kit with very good reviews and they are way brighter and no problems for over a year now.

    Removed my bed badges, in preparation for adding matte black ones.

    Used a 3M eraser wheel to remove the sticker residue, then did a light polish as the wheel leaves the paint kinda dull, then laid wax down.

    I almost did that, but TRS has great customer support and I like having support for aftermarket stuff.

    Mine came out .....no problem. I didn't use a heat gun. When you take the emblem off you will need to shave off the plastic bur under the Toyota emblem. I'm a little nervous about the adhesive on the new emblems. Make sure to clean the center cap with alcohol. I'm hoping these will stick.

    Thinking about doing the same. I’m not happy with the output of my OPT7s either. Where did you mount the relays and ballasts?
