    Hey y'all, just replaced the grille on my white taco with an RBP RX series and replaced the chrome surround with a black one. My headlights are driving me nuts now...they are stock crystals and i'm looking for recommendations on a black replacement pair? Any suggestions?

    ^ for sure...if u really want a black headlight, it will be cheaper to have a local member do it for you than to buy one off ebay...and it will probably be better quality too

    they wont be smoked, unless you want them. basically, you can pay a member around $60, who knows what he/she is doing, to take apart your stock headlights, paint the housing black, and reseal them. If you are interested, try searching "BHLM" on this forum, which stands for black headlight mod

    if you dont want to run around without headlights while someone is working on them, some of the ebay ones are not bad, you just have to reseal them with silicone before u slap them on ur truck cuz they tend to leak and fog up. just dont get the ricey ones...
