    Got a set of 3rd gen 4runner retrofit headlights with panamera 2.0 switchback shrouds. Vehicle ended up getting into a wreck just before I was ready to install. These fire up and work. Also have the ground switching modules to work with vehicles that use ground switching circuits. They are retrofit with Morimoto MLED 2.0 projectors in brand new TYC housing. I got a little heavy with the butyl rubber on the reseal as seen by the bottom housing internally. Only issue with these is I got a little carrier away with the alcohol or acetone removing some of the original butyl and the chrome on one housing has come off a bit. Comes with all wiring. Final picture is just to show cut off, not installed on vehicle. Asking $600

    I've wanted retro fits on mine for a while but i ended up just sticking some LED bulbs in it to get by for now. I personally, and its nothing against you at all, just cant justify over $500 for headlights on such an old vehicle :oops:

    I am sorry for your loss :pout:

    Oh I totally get it. The retrofit on these is actually pretty easy. If you ditched the shroud and did just the projector it's a true bolt together plug and play set up. Almost no trimming at all required. Took me about 4-5 hours to do these.

    No they don't fit a 1st gen Tacoma unfortunately. They are very different.
