    you can do it online.
    Can you still do Trust. not sure what happen to them.
    But all can be done online. You have to make sure the paperwork is on point.

    Same crap everyone else got
    Or you can just get an adjustable brace and keep it a pistol.

    Try Beaver Toyota in Cumming online.

    If you order online, the parts are usually 20% cheaper than walking in and buying them. You can ship to the dealership as well, and not have to pay shipping costs.

    Also, McGeorge Toyota in Virginia (I think) offers good online pricing. Of course, you pay shipping.

    Toyota in Athens quoted me our shop price is $261.17. So either they don't give us a good deal or that $247 is a good deal. They say it list it for 348.23 but you know how list goes.

    Thanks yall. Beaver was same as what you said @banditcamp like $260 something but Marietta I guess is the winner here. Wow I really dont want to buy POS after market headlights but also wasn't really trying to invest that much in some new headlights - I just figure that restoration crap is a waste of money these are too far gone.

    Your Price
    $ 247.03

    I usually go to Toyotapartsdeal.com or google the part number and see what dealer is the cheapest.

    edit: Try junk yard or looking at used OEM on ebay?

    I've always had good luck with Olathe Toyota in the past but they appear to be on par with what you've already found.

    You'd be surprised how well the headlight restoration kits work now.

    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    I got some of those morimoto headlights to replace my ones on the ‘17 before they went LED.
    I have to say I am not impressed at all by the light. Basically the low beams are useless, so I send up blinding people with the hi beams.
    The other weird ass thing is that there is a serious harsh cutoff line, from where the light is to where it isn’t. My oem lights weren’t bright, but I believe they worked better than these :(

    I mean they are cooling looking, and do a funky blinker, but that is about it.

    Bummer to hear yo. Not to pour salt in a wound, but I vaguely recall suggesting OEM only for a headlight upgrade on these turds. Hurts up front, but currently it’s about the only option that’s actually a performance/function upgrade vs form.

    The new OEM, LED. If I have DRL on mine. New light OEM will be plug and play or I'll have to get something else?

    Pretty sure this thread details all the things. @crashnburn80 would be the subject matter expert.

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/3rd-gen-hid-vs-led-vs-halogen-h11-projector-headlights.589465/

    But in short I believe that yes, the OEM LED headlights are plug and play for your application. If anything, a simple adapter will be needed, but still a plug and play set up.

    Do you have a personal recommendation? I’ve used one of the meguiars kits a few times. It looked great when first done, but it never lasted more than a few months.
