LED Lighting Conversion

Thanks for the write up, to be clear, in case I need to use the resistors. For the front and rear turn signals, just splice the resistor wires into the wires (1,3) of the plug....is this correct?

 

Gotcha. The thing that worries me, is I put the halogen bulbs back in the front (without resistors) and the problem persists.. And I don't think it's a relay or fuse because the signals work, except when the lights are off...

I guess my next step will be to put resistors in the front and the LED's back in. Hopefully that will fix it.

 

The LED fogs are pretty nifty

 

I respond to local calls in my POV

 

How long did these take to ship and get to you? worth it?

I have the phillips for my rear brake lights, but they didn't work on the turn signals.

 

Took about 2 weeks for mine to arrive. I have no idea why Philips doesn’t have these in the states.

Is it worth it? They are very bright and look awesome. They have a very nice and finished/complete look to them unlike the cheaper ones with the exposed circuit boards and LEDs. So if you want something that looks like it could be OEM, and performs outstandingly, then it might be worth it for you. It’s a lot of cash though.

 

Passenger side low beam LED. Anyone have a trick to this? Bulb seems a touch too long and can't angle it in. There a way, without removing bumper, to shake headlight over a touch to get the angle needed?

 

I unbolted the washer reservoir, and that allowed me enough room to get it in there. Still tight, but doable.

 

Woops, I meant driver side. I started with driver, couldn't get, so did passenger without a problem, and still can't get the drivers side.

 

Question for everyone on here. tacomabeast just released HID's for $40 but say they include ballasts. I think they are wrong because I found the lights for $180 on another site. Attached are both links
https://tacomabeast.com/collections...profile-power-house-hid?variant=2385780670494
https://www.ledconceptslighting.com/h11-profile-powerhouse-hid-system.html

 

I clicked the fog lights that you have suggested and Amazon says it wont fit the truck? It should be fine right

 

The tacomabeast website doesn't say the ballasts are included, just what wattage ballasts they will work with. Hope this helps.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

• HID BULBS: 2x Profile Powerhouse (H11)
  
  
• WIRING: Power inputs & Power pass-throughs
  
  
• WARRANTY: 2 Years
  
  
• EXTRAS: Profile Decal
  

 

I appreciate it. I placed an order yesterday and cancelled it. The description was changed this morning. It said it included everything.

 

Question, it might be a stupid question but I am going to ask it anyways. So for the 2017 Taco it calls out for H9 for the high beams. My question is that most of the LED lights that are Amazon are H11(H8,H9). Are those types of bulbs ok?

 

Yes

 

How do you even get the map lights out?

 

Anybody have the best ideas for LED replacements on a 2017 Tacoma Limited?

Fog Lamps?
cabin lights?
Vanity Mirros?
License Plate Lamps?
Anything else?

 

Im looking for front turn signals but i want them to be switch backs anyone got any suggestions

 

I went with all Philips LED bulbs other than the vanity mirror lights which Philips does not make.

This isn’t the cheapest way to go, but Philips does make OEM quality products. Everything fits perfectly.

Note, most of the Philips bulbs in colors other than white, I purchased on eBay. Most of these are not available from Philips North America for some reason. It appears that eBay sellers are importing them from global regions and selling them to US customers. If my eBay links don’t work, you’ll have to search for a different listing.

I just installed the Philips reverse led bulbs, not very bright. Definitely a nice white color, but no real output.
