    Three month old Sylvania Silverstar lamp blew, as expected. What "high performance" halogens
    has anyone had better experience with? Please keep in mind that I will not be doing LED's or HID's. The truck's a DD. I don't wheel. Thanks in advance.

    By the way, it's a 2007.

    Great bulbs for 3rd Gen! Philips Racing Vision +150 or GE Xenon +120 are better choices in H4 for 2nd Gen.

    Remember, brighter headlights that help you see better may not last as long as cheap poor quality OEM lights. Toyota prefers to make you think you have long lasting quality if they last for years.
