    Are you able to keep amber DRL on full time or is that just the turn/hazard light?

    I've been wanting to get rid of the chrome headlights on my 2018 Sport, and this thread did me in! I've ordered my harness, and I ordered the headlights from Olathe this morning!

    There is still some chrome on the headlights. Less than 16-19 models but still some

    I looked at the pic of the new lights, and it's a big enough difference for me. At least these new lights don't scream CHROME when you see them!

    I agree. The Pro's have the TRD PRO chrome letter pieces and the TRD / Limited have the small chrome trim. Just didn't want someone to be disappointed thinking there was zero chrome on the OEM LED headlights.

    I have a 2020 TRD Sport, do I need a harness for the OEM LEDs?

    If you have the halogen projector headlights, then yes, you will need a harness.

    Does anyone know if the 2020 OEM LED headlights have been compared performance wise to the Morimoto XB headlights?

    No comparison yet. Crashnburn has tested the Morimoto XB headlights in his 3rd gen hid vs led vs halogen h11 thread. Post #3. The Morimoto low beam is better than stock low beam H11 bulb, but stock high beam is better than the Morimoto in his test. H9 bulb conversion for the low beam is almost on par with the Morimoto XB. So the question is it worth 1200$ when a 10$ bulb can give almost the same performance without the led color.

    Haven’t seen any comparison but reflector lighting will never perform as good as projector when comes to cutoff and light distribution so if your aiming for light output and best night driving I will always choose projector with clear lens. But for the Tacoma not a big fan of bunch of mini projectors in the headlight.

    Thanks, I have the halogen + LED DRLs (not the premium). I’m assuming I’ll still need the harness?
