    What's wrong with them? What did it take to put them in?

    Did they just plug up and work or did you have to add anything else?

    Oh nothing. They were fairly inexpensive and my friends a professional at everything slapped them on pretty fast. Just not sure if I miss the old look better I guess if I go full conversion it won't matter cuz I'll replace them any way but I'm starting to appreciate the old look better. We shall see when I switch it to black billet and powder coat the bull hairs black to match.

    Side note: if you do go aftermarket headlights your gonna want to seal the headlight your self before you install. I didn't and moisture got in an blew a light after a car wash.

    So they have a couple of plugs that plug into where the old ones went but there's extra wires that are on the head light that are for the halos that you have to splice in to the wires that are on the plugs to your truck. My friend did it in a few minutes but he'd done that type of installation many a time. I was digging the whole projection light thing. They have a few different styles I found on eBay and Amazon. That's before I heard of Tacoma world.

    Ok thanks. I hear them say you have to have a conversion kit that is about 500.00! Didn't want to spend that much just liked the look of the ones like yours.
