    Really wanting to purchase Toyota OEM LED Headlights for my 2020 DBL Cab 4x4 Offroad. Currently, I have installed the Meso customs LED brake lights and the Meso customs turn signals. As of now, I do not have hyper flash.

    Has anyone installed the Toyota OEM LED Headlights along with the meso custom adders? If so, did you start having hyper flash?

    The OEM LED headlights have resistors built in (or something that matches the resistance on a 7440 bulb at least). It matches the load of the turn signal on the halogen headlights for the TRD trims. So if you are fine now, swapping the headlights should not create an issue.

    Installed the MESO Stage 1 tails, had hyper flash in reverse only.

    Later installed MESO turn signals, hyper flash went away (read they have a built in resistor).

    Finally installed OEM LED headlights, still no hyper flash.

    How much aiming/adjustment did you have to do with the LED's?

    I have LED from the factory and installed stage 1. I only have hyper flash in reverse with signal on. The times I’ll be doing those 2 things simultaneously is 1%

    Have the LED headlights from the factory. Added MESO stage 1 taillights. Only have hyper flash when in reverse and then only with the left turn signal. I've yet to have this scenario in the real world, so I'm not worried about it.
