    I agree.

    I'm not impressed.

    What kind of projectors are those? HID? Or are we stuck with another useless LED mod for the "raptor lights" crowd?

    After some research you can get these with RX350 projectors. Thats cool. Whats not cool is they completely deleted the highbeam.

    One's a modified factory housing. The other is a turn-key sealed housing. Not really comparable directly, as they're designed for different customers.

    It's kinda like comparing Blue Apron to Uber Eats. One is ready to consume, the other may require preparation somewhere in the process.

    My guy...the RX350 and most other proper HID projectors are bi-xenon. Meaning, the one projector works as both the low and high beam...

    Rx350 projector is low and high beam so we are able to delete the factory high beam

    I like it. :thumbsup:
    I think you'll be seeing some business from the 2020 Tacoma crowd. The new DRL's are an aesthetic downgrade, IMO.

    I'd love to place an order but I'd like to see a closer look at the unit. Standing by for more photos of inside shots.

    It appears to be floating. I’d guess they anchor it on each end with tie wire.

    Low beam and high beam. I suspect the housing quality should be okay since it’s a modified factory housing

    It’s honestly two different types of lights. It’s whatever a person likes in our opinion. Low beam and high beam with rx350 modified projector I feel can’t get any better and our housings get clear coated with automotive clear coat before shipment to make sure the lenses look good for years to come
