    More facepalm. AlphaRex is not a legitimate headlight, it is a short range flood light from China Vland sold at a huge markup to unsuspecting American buyers. And TacomaBeast is well known for pushing low quality products at big markups to make a huge profit, as well as the whole fiasco on defacing public lands. Hard pass on both.

    Alpharex are just Vland optics. If you want that crap on your Taco just buy it straight from alibaba.com. OEM LEDs are the only way to go

    Auxbeam doesn’t make fogs. And Auxbeam product performance and quality is beyond awful.

    It'd be great if people could stick to shitting on Tacomabeast and leave the politics out of it. No need to risk a good bash thread for some nonsense.

    Edit: I see the mods have been here lol. Hello.

    Working ≠ good.

    Also, occasionally not working is the literal contradiction to flawless

    Agreed....I would go OEM or probably not buy at all. I just did an HID kit on the low beams and called it a day.

    Kind of disgusting Tacoma beast just resells garbage Alibaba headlights for 2-3x the cost onto to tacoma community.

    As for defacing that park and having no respect for our land, many think it's all good because he said sorry.
