BHLM

Any guys do it on the newer front end tacos? I really wanna do this mod before the cruise. I don't trust myself ripping them apart though.. Any experienced modder here willing to help? Name the price!

 

same here... jus name the price

 

What does bump mean?

 

Thanks my braddah!! Not much of a blogger! Slowly getting it though! Lol..

 

thankx man, ur truck is killa btw

 

That's a big negative! I'll eventually get the courage to do it someday..

 

I thought I've seen people do it on the newer Tacomas but I can say for sure. Try the search option.

 

I did mine myself. Hardest part is getting them off the truck!
and working up the courage to stick them in an oven...




Just read and follow all the BHLM and retrofit threads. Did them both in an afternoon. I wont do it for anybody else's truck, but I can offer tips

 

Pshhhh easy as pie! I'll help you out, send a PM. I do however recommend if you are considering a projector retrofit to do it at the same time, I mean it only makes sense. But if not the BL could be done in as little as 3 hours considering waiting for the paint to dry.

 

I could do it for you guys too. The only thing that bothered me about it was reinserting the bezel back into the lens. I had to rehit the paint several times. The corners touch just a tad in some areas for some stupid reason.

 

Are you on oahu?

 

I've torn apart the headlights on the last 4 vehicles I've owned. It's not a hard job if you take your time. There is a very good write up linked below on the process here and list all the parts and tools you'll need. All I have to say, is take your time. It's worth the wait to get it done right and make it look good.

My truck after the BHLM

 

Will the projector retro pass safety/recon?

 

No the retro won't pass. I just did the bhlm.

 

So does the BHLM pass recon if I do it? Really concerned cause after I lift my truck, I like go and get my recon. Any help is greatly appreciated, Mahalo!

 

According to what i read in the new safety check thread the bhlm will pass..

 

Mahalo for the quick reply! Now all I gotta do is grow a pair and tackle this beast! Wish me luck, Aloha!

 

Mine did. I wouldn't worry about it. especially since the new Tacoma SR comes with BHLM.


HIDs or retrofits will not pass safety or recon tho.

 

Awesome, thanks bullaculla!
