    So I noticed my turn signal bulbs in the front aren't very bright in my halo headlights. Are there any turn signal bulbs that are generally brighter that can go into my headlights that anyone reccomends?

    So y'all are gonna make so much fun of me when I tell you/you see what I got for my truck. Should be here Tuesday or Wednesday. You guys are gonna call me a hick. But I got them just for the little bit of towing I do and the extra visibility they will provide me. That's the most i'm gonna tell you.

    TOW MIRRORS LOL

    They look good on big lifted Tacomas. As long as you don't drive around with them flipped out, that looks stupid on any truck

    Lol I'd only drive with them up when I'm towing or as a gag. Ill roll up to the big dodges and like roll down my window. Make sure they are watching. Then flip it up, then give them that head nod. :oldglory: it'll be hilarious. I agree that most of the trucks don't look very good with them flipped up.

    What do you tow that makes you need these? Just curious. And I would advise you NOT to do that.. If dodge drivers over there are anything like they are here, they are cocky assholes who would smoke you out every chance they get. The older dodges mainly, the hicks here can't afford new ones haha

    I don't need them. I mainly wanted the tiger eye mirror without the stick on. But I sometimes tow a trailer that's wide enough that the mirrors become useless. I just like good visibility. All the hicks here smoke me out anyway. Just because I drive a Toyota. Plus I think it'll be a fun unique edition. Which is what I'm all about

    Yeah, I may just buy color matched ones with the turn signal lights. I really want those lights.

    Got the tow mirrors on this morning. I love them so far. I took a picture with the mirrors flipped up for grins and giggles. Actually doesn't look that horrible. As of this post you can see them flipped down on the current photo post.

    :smack:

    Although if you are towing it isn't a bad idea. Just the thing I don't like is they are dodge mirrors.. Although way better looking than other tow mirrors that you buy aftermarket. How hard were they to put on?

    Don't me smacking me boy! Ill knock you into next week :mad:! It took me like 20 minutes per side. I could probably do them both in 30 now that I've done it. I'm a ford man myself which makes me sad that they are dodge but oh well there unique
