    I've looked over all of the threads and have seen several ideas to retrofit my headlights. I'm looking to get dual projectors, demon eyes, multi color halos, multi color drl, maybe led strips if it looks right. What brand and places would you buy everything at ? I'm going to two tone them with color match, gloss black or matte and smoked lenses as well. Open to suggestions as well for the whole build as this will be my first retrofit and wanted to add it to my business also. Thank you again.

    P.s. TRS or Lightwerkz is your go-to for components.

    Correct usage---.Incorrect usage

    Duel (to face off in battle)----->Dual(as in, a pair)

    Other often misused words

    Breaks (like it don't work no more)---->Brakes (the things that slow you down)

    They are giving you crap.

    I am guessing "retrofit all the things" is referring to the fact that your thread title says nothing about headlights....which would be useful. So the inference is that this is a thread about retrofitting all the things on a Tacoma!

    This forum is hilarious.....

    I was just gonna say, but the Acura jewel eyes are lined up in a row. I had one at my desk at work a few months ago. Went in the trash. Probably could've donated to mesojdm for his shenanigans.

    Curious what his daily grind is. I have access to some cool stuff at work (R&D @car manufacturer), but he goes nuts modding everything with LED's.

    That is so ridiculously over the top that I would buy it just to set the car in front of me on fire with my new beams. I want 55W HIDs in each of those bulbs!

    Forget that, just run the lights exposed for that fresh-air cooldown. Burn everything in sight!
