    if anyone has ordered a set of headlights from Toyota I'd like to know if I can buy the shipping boxes from you. I've shipped about 20+ sets of lights so far and looking for a more reliable box/shipping method. I figure the box Toyota made for them should be a perfect fit. Obviously I'd pay for the box and the shipping of the empty boxes to me. If anyone has a dealer connection I'd like to put some feelers out there as well. Thanks.

    Are you looking for the OEM packing material also, or just the empty boxes?

    Pretty much the whole thing. I'm not sure what the packing material looks like. Possibly I can fab that up, but the boxes will be prefect sizes so my customers save on shipping costs.

    The packing is formed foam, but the boxes are overly large and expensive to ship.

    Might be better to use smaller boxes, and create your own packaging by using expandable foam in plastic bags to mold around the headlights.
