    I like that. Any significant decrease in light output with your turn signals and hi-beams?

    Full retro or lip stick and flare? I want to retro mine but the 1 thing that bothers me is not finding the same/similar gel coating diffuser for the drl as the halo. I realize it’s less light output but I’d like for it to match

    Light output is increased. They’re RX350 bi-xenon HID retrofits. The halo and stock DRL are both Diode Dynamics switchback DRL and turn signals:

    A few wiring changes and I can be all amber, or all white, or a mix. Only thing that is not a switchback is the DRL's, They are just amber. So when I run all white, I leave them off until you switch to running lights and headlights. Thats why in the all white pic, they are off. Thats how I'm wired right now--All white DRL, then Amber with Running lights and Headlights.

    You thirsty bitch!
    I put Morimoto HID's in those patented Toyota Halogen projectors.
    When I turn them on at night, people come from far and near to marvel at the beauty.
