    Hello Everyone,

    I was thinking of getting some of the custom spyder lights for my 05 tacoma. In particular these for the front: www.protuninglab.com/tota05haledp.html and these for the rear: http://www.protuninglab.com/alt-yd-tt05-led-sm.html I was also looking at getting the HID fog lights and the LED third light. But I'm always a bit hesitant to buy things online. I am about an hour west of Toronto Ontario and am wondering if anyone 1st) has experience with these lights, and 2nd) knows of a place in my area I can go and pick these up in person rather than ordering them online?

    Thanks in advance for the help everyone!

    I put those headlights on my 09. They look good and were a pretty easy install.

    I have both of those. Got the tail lights smoked out and they look sick!! Not to Hi-jack the thread but have you other guys figured out how to have the high and low hid's run at the same time? Im not A big fan of flipping on my brights and having to wait 8 sec in the dark for the light to warm up.

    that sounds interesting but will the factory wire gauge be large enough to keep from overheating?

    Go check out ebay. I got my tail lights and head lights, both for $230 with free shipping. And so far they seem to be good quality

    Btw, both made by Depo

    Does that mod keep both lights on all the time? Or just keeps the low beam on when you flip to high beam?

    There is a reason why brights are not HIDs - they are often momentary - use a good halogen bulb or an LED for your bright and problem solved. Or you need a bulb like an H4 that is both low and high.

    I rarely use high beams, but if anyone has pictures of their truck with the black headlights and maybe a blacked grill I would love to see what it looks like before I order the headlights myself. (If you have it on a blue tacoma as well that would be even better)

    Just keeps the low on when the high is on. If the high switch isn't on the highs are off
