LED Lighting Conversion

I'm with @RobP62 on this one

 

Thanks RobP62 for your awesome write up and dedication to this thread. I ordered xenon depot h11 led's and will order Morimoto xd fogs a little later because of your dedication to the cause!

I took advantage of the Father's day sale but shipping to Hawaii was $32 so that took away the 20% discount ; however Xenon Depot has dropped the price of the bulbs too since your earlier posts.

 

Mahalo Nui Loa Kyle! Awesome man! You will be very happy. Those are gonna rock the shores over there like crazy! Please come back and post up some photos after the install. We all appreciate seeing what others have done in this thread Shaka Bruh!

 

Got mine installed. High, Low, and Fogs. I mounted the LED drivers with double side tape just below the battery and just behind the washer reservoir on passenger. I love the color! Thanks to all for the help along the way!



Comparison shot. Drivers side done, time for a Modelo!


Both sides done! Time for another Modelo!

 

Thanks for posting the comparison pictures and glad to see you are happy with the outcome!

Alright so since I've been so MIA lately and haven't had anytime for new led's....

@RobP62 what's the latest and greatest now man? Is there a short answer lol how are these XenonDepots doing in comparison with the others we loved? I'm digging the no fan concept.

What's the light through like in the projectors and the reflectors?

 

For any of you guys wanting to convert your maps and dome, today is the day @mesojdm drops his custom created pieces! I definitely recommend them. Especially the Red versions.

I second that comment!!

You guys will not be disappointed one bit. It's a very unique item that you cannot find anywhere else. @mesojdm doesn't release these often at all. I have the Ultimate dome and maps lights and they are by far the best and brightest you will ever find anywhere.

 

Are the ones listed on the OP still the best bet? 158 pages is a lot to scan through to see if there's been any changes made to the list of "need to get lights."

This will be my backup plan once I miss out on the meso lights today

 

No, big negative. OP post is way out dated man.

I've been absent from this forum for about a month now. I use to be able to say what was the best, but it changes so frequently. @RobP62 can tell you most likely or go to my page and check my build thread. I've got an LED conversion list there and I love my setup.

At 1 point most of the guys on this thread were following that, but I think these new Xenon Depot bulbs have really made a good impact

 

That's what I was afraid of, thanks for the heads up. Heading to your build now. I'm not worried about having the latest and greatest, just something that I know will work and have good results. Thanks!

 

If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or ask here. What I don't know, one of the guys here will.

 

Will do, thanks man.

Im going to be starting with the interior and working my way around the truck, did you like the original bulbs you had for map/dome lights prior to getting Meso's?

 

Yeah, the SuperBright LED's? Ive always purchased from them cause they have good stuff and good customer service. I even get someone of my home bulbs from there. I have noticed though that some of there stuff will start to flicker after a few months where some of the ones on Amazon I have not seen that issue.

 

Okay, awesome. And they're cheap enough to where I'll just buy a few of each for back ups. Appreciate the help! Time to start ordering and converting! The headlights/taillights will be for another day, starting with the inexpensive bulbs first

 

@Parker315 I have not physically seen my new truck yet, or else I could answer this myself so don't want to come off as a dumb question lol. I'll be home next week and my wife picked it up while I was gone.

So just to make sure for the interior there's:
map lights (2?)
dome lights (2?)
and vanity lights (2..or 4?)
That's it for the interior I believe?

 

So yes, Maps light 2 bulbs. 1 on each side
Dome light 1 bulb only
Vanity.. I believe it's 2 bulbs 1 on each side, but i haven't replaced those so good question. i'll have to go and check lol

 

Okay, awesome! I found from another user on here that these should work and from the same site as you mentioned earlier;

https://www.superbrightleds.com/mor...smd-led-vehicle-vanity-fuse-lamp-30mm-car/243

 

Their site says these may not be compatible, but if someone on here said they were, just be sure they used them in a 2016+ Tacoma.

 

@Parker315 This is who I'm referring to, seems he found out the hard way that these will work and the ones they tell you will work, don't. Worth a shot
