    Oh, I also recently replaced all my interior lights with Diode Dynamics LEDs. For anyone savvy with the search function on this site, and interested in OEM bulb color temp but just brighter, get the warm white color temp with SMF1 vanity bulbs, HP3 map lights, and HP6 dome light bulb. It's in the descriptions that they're an OEM upgrade, but I went off the pictures too much and got bright/natural white which were just too cold. The warm white is not as yellow as the photos, and those bulb models are an adequate increase in brightness without being blinding (especially the vanity lights).

    Their RMA process was easy and I greatly appreciate their speedy dispatch! However, if I can save them one RMA with this post, it's worth it.

    It is really just a faux bumper anyway. I had a 2nd gen that a kid nailed at 30 mph at a stop light. His car was a total loss. I had to use compound to remove his paint from my bumper. There was a little dent remaining. They just don't make them like that any more.

    Not anything I did but I got rear-ended on the way home from work. Only looks like the tow hitch receiver got pushed in. We'll see what happens when I take it to the dealership.

    After wondering why Toyota spent appx 8 dollars on a pair of factory Fog housings and bulbs… an upgrade occurred that seemed expensive until the light output exceeded HID headlight 4 fold.

    Is there no drain hole at the bottom of the "bowl" shape?

    What’s up guys? It’s been a while. I got a problem. I’ve been on vacation for 17 days. Truck is less than 3 years old. After sitting the whole time it won’t start ( push to start ). It unlocked fine but headlights won’t come on. I’ve heard the batteries are shit but haven’t run into that problem yet. What do you guys think? Battery? Worth charging it? Thanks in advance

    Yep. Head to Walmart or if you are within the warranty get one from the dealer. Or upgrade to an AGM and get a KDMax tune that will adjust the charge rate for an AGM battery. Just depends on how much you want to spend.

    Ah yup, clear as day. Found it odd, since BAMF's stuff always seems to thoughtful.
