    Good eye. desoldered OEM's and found the exact specs on them. Cross referenced a substitute in Amber(In route to start testing) I want AMBER LED DRL while utilizing Toyotas OEM PCB board and their awesomely engineered optics.

    Getting ready to this mod.

    2 questions; First, what high beam splitter do I need? And how did you get a discount??

    Sorry if these have been answered already.

    Thanks!

    They often run sales. Like bad2k said there was one just this past weekend.
    You need H9-->H9+9003 adapter this will retain your stock high beam and give you a 9003 plug for the new bixenon projector

    Did you have to scuff/clean/or prime the pieces before applying the matte paint??
