    What’s up Tacomaworld, I recently installed the all new Alpharex Nova Series Quad Projector LED Headlights on my 2017 Toyota Tacoma.
    here are a few pictures of what they look like and a quick install / output video.

    They look cool. Can you take a picture of them lighting up a flare wall? Would like to see cutoff, etc

    Hey I’ve seen your YouTube videos before. Truck has evolved quite a bit. That BD light setup is unreal!

    The light output looks great in the video. Anybody have an opinion of how that compares to the Morimotos?

    I have the Morimotos, I like the look of them a lot better than these new AlphaRex. The quad projectors just look too "busy" especially with the light up logo. I actually like the Morimotos better than the 2020 Pro LEDs as well because it doesn't have the light up logo.

    P.S. Your BD lights are nuts! Any hood glare?

    I have been looking at Alpha Rex's headlights since they teased it last year.
    I personally do not like the jewelled eye look of the Nova series.
    I was hoping that they would release a Pro series, but sadly their rep said that there is no plans for them.
    Said that the housing has no room for their Pro series projector.
