    Have a 2013 Toyota Tacoma Pre Runner bought new in Oct. 2012 .Last week replaced old worn out, cant clean and restore any more headlamps and bulbs. Replaced old OEM with affordable Nilight Headlamp Assemblies and replaced old bulbs with Sylvania Silverstar Ultra LED 9003 H4 lights. Super Bright and white,adjusted and tweeked to 36 inches at 25 ft, away from garage door. Lights center is 38 inches so 2 inches lower and the horizontal to dead center equal.Also replaced worn out Fog Lamps to Nilight Fogs Assemblies and some Sylvania Silver Star Ultra LEDs H11 also. Super bright and white and adjusted to Vertical to 2 ft. at 25 ft. away from garage door on level driveway. Super bright and white. I now feel safe driving at night again on Dark Country Florida roads and not hit a wild boar , a bear , or aligator crossing roads at night. Got the Sylvania Silverstar Ultra LEDs 9003 H4 & H11s at local Autozone Parts store for $99 a pair less 20% by online ordering at $79 a pair and they are Life time warrentee vs others at 1-5 year warrentee ! I love them.

    Just could not afford OEM Toyota Headlamp assemblies and Fog Assemblies, they are outragious what they want! These seem fine and better for now and a lot cheaper in price and still fantastic! Dont have $800 to $1,000 for Stealership parts prices on assemblies alone.

    I honestly can't tell which is the before pic and which is the after pic.

    Putting LED bulbs in halogen housings is never a good idea though. Less usable light and you blind oncoming traffic.
