    Nothing wrong with having a trade dress. But yeah some people don't appreciate the extra mile. Hope you like the kit!

    My kit arrived today. Installed and put everything away in about 30 minutes including making a little "before and after" video for the wife. Seems no matter what mod I do she'll tell me she can't hear the difference, see the difference, feel the difference or remember what it used to be like. :D I'm sure I missed some sequence or other in the video, but she'll get the idea.

    A bit hard to tell from the video, but the VLEDs are considerably brighter and using the full tail light should keep folks behind us at bay.

    Great quality materials and workmanship. Thanks VLED! :thumbsup:

    Good stuff, looks fantastic.

    I'm happy with mine, only thing I wish to change back there is to go back to red tail lights over the clear Pro ones with the black chinstrap. They actually look pretty good, but I'd prefer all red. I need to just do it because I could probably sell the Pros for decent coin and not end up that much in the negative. Other than that, I'm ecstatic with my rear lighting setup.

    Got mine 2 days ago and installed today. Awesome kit! I'm very happy with the performance.
    Thanks to VLED!

    BAM had them the cheapest. Not to knock on the DEPO, or other Toyota stores selling TRD STYLE but they were actually cheaper going OEM route.

    $282 shipped

    WOW that sucks. I just bought new red housings for $322 from Sparks Parts with discount code (selling my Pros) Just checked and I could have got them for $281 shipped at BAM. Damn it. I thought sparks was a good deal because I got them cheaper there than I could do locally and the local dealer had a discount. So I did decent, but didn’t beat BAM by $42. That sucks.

    Was thinking the same thing. Market seems flooded with various take offs though. Worth a try! ;)

    Getting me to change something that already works is hard for me. But Yes I installed VLED Stage 1 and it is a great kit Toyota should take notice
