    There was a big market for them years ago for a BHLM, not so much anymore that most people are swapping to these. Still are some people, but they don't go for much $$ now.

    Edit: few buyers out there
    People with SR / SR5 model might upgrade to them.
    People who damage their existing ones and need a replacement but might only buy one
    People who have upgraded and are going to sell / trade in truck and might want to revert back to stock and get some money for the upgraded headlights.

    The rough part of sr / SR5 going to TRD headlights is that the harness probably costs more than the headlights. So it’s not a brilliant “upgrade” path since the high and low beams are the same. Lots of money and time for just an L shaped DRL instead of amber which many actually prefer.

    I bought a set myself on the cheap for use on the test bench, never used them, and gave them away. There sadly isn’t much of anything worth doing with them. Bulbs probably have more value than the assembly.

    No problem.

    Before you store them, clean them and take some pic's of them. When you figure out what you want to do you already have pictures. I sold mine on CL a few years ago. shipping cost too much (and damage in transit was a worry) and might have a better chance at a better price?

    Damn, that's a good idea. You're full of helpful suggestions today. I'm definitely going to do that and see if someone local will want them. Not that I've ever thought of selling the truck, but I think there is tipping point where you just aren't ever going to be able to get all the money you've spent in mods back. I'm definitely there and have been for a while. It would take me a month of solid work to return it to stock, lol. Time to unload all this stuff and keeping moving down the trail. Thanks again for all your help/suggestions... have a good one.

    My halogens are sitting in the front living room in the boxes the LED's came in. :rolleyes: Haven't decided what to do. Probably hang on to them in the off chance I sell/trade my truck in the future. :notsure:

    In love with these headlights. The aesthetics are wonderful and the improved light output is amazing! Worth every cent.

    Are these the Pros or OR? I can't really tell if those little chrome badges are there from this picture.

    Just installed my lights tonight. After finishing, it looks like the passenger side beam needs to come up a bit. The wiper fluid tank makes it pretty tough to get to the adjustment screw, however. Is it easiest to just loosen up the fluid tank to get to the screw or is there another method?

    IIRC, you should be able to come down from the top with a Phillips screwdriver and mesh with the gear
