    I read (tried to at least) the long thread about halogen/LED/HID. I would like to get Philips H9 or GE H9 for my 2022 Tacoma, but the generic places (AutoZone, AdvanceAuto, NAPA) do not seem to have and I avoid Crapazon like the plague.

    Any ideas before I go with Sylvania (which the thread OP did not bother to test)?

    According to a very complete duration/brightness/distance analysis performed by crashnburn80 (this thread: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/3rd-gen-hid-vs-led-vs-halogen-h11-projector-headlights.589465/) you can make H9 work by trimming one of the small plastic tabs.

    But more to the point is Crapazon-Master-of-Personal-Data ... I have purchased maybe 4 items from them over several years and only when no other option existed. But it has been years since.

    I hoped that someone sold over-the-counter here in Phoenix.

    Thanks for that new information, but ... damn.
