    So my Lamin-X film came in today, I bought the yellow film for my 09 Prerunner. It was 70 degrees today and looks like the same for tomorrow. Do I need to remove the fogs from the truck or can I just clean the lens with Isopropyl Alcohol and apply?

    Just pop off the plastic bezel surrounding the lens and it will be easy to apply.

    Put em on today. They went on okay but I did have some wrinkles that I hope will even out. I didn't do the best job on it but unless you get right up on it you wouldn't notice it...I hope

    Had the same problem on my '15. Wrinkles are still there but like yours, can't notice it unless you're right up looking at it. You'll forget about it after awhile.

    I love the lamin-X covers. Took 10min to install and a nice cosmetic change without impacting useable light from the fogs.

    My son has a Tundra and we put on the Green tinted Laminex covers. His fogs are much smaller than mine and his film went on so much easier, no wrinkles, no problems. I've had mine in since mid Feb and like them.

    so i just installed the lamin x yellow film.

    like OP suggested, i removed the plastic fog bezel and install was really simple. I also used a spray bottle with just water and applied it to the back of the lamin x film before sticking on, i went real slow and took my time pushing from the center out to avoid any bubbles. I just used my thumb (sprayed it with a little water) and worked my way out.

    I like the look of my yellow fog lights, but it is worth noting that lamin-x is surprisingly hard to work with and costs way more than it seems like it should.

    They almost look like they are the wrong size. Did you fix the issue? If so, how? I have a set incoming. Thx.

    I just cut it and overlapped the excess. Looks fine from a distance.

    Did you order the SR5 version or TRD? Can u let me know how yours fit?

    It sounded like from their website the trd version is the square one on the pro. So I ordered the sr5. Maybe that’s why mine is not fitting right
