    I found some AlphaRex headlights that I really like at stillen.com. Are they legit and will the headlights actually work? They cost $320 at stillen

    Are you buying the lights for looks or improved performance?

    If that's all you're looking for, you will be just fine. Performance, moisture and UV resistance as well as overall quality are a serious downgrade from OEM. Hint: Don't sell your OEM headlights. Keep them for re-installation.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Stillen used to be a well respected Nissan aftermarket part company. I haven't heard that name in a long time so I'd assume with it resurfacing that the name was bought by another company.

    Stillen is one of the best you can trust them. I've been using my alpharex headlights almost 2 years. With zero issues. And my truck stays parked outside in my drive way. No fading lens, no moisture, and have very decent output.
