    Well we did a conversion on a tundra that had leds and what the client had to do was make his own splicing for the hid kit. In his case though he also had an error on the dash for bulbs being out

    Here is a pair of the AB6’s on a 2019 Trd-off road. It was interesting to wire up because we had to tap into the side markers and then we couldn’t figure out why the high beams wouldn’t work. We realize that the high beam bulb wasn’t plugged into anything at all even though we were under the impression that it would be already tied into the harness that was prepared. Anyway, they fit really well and they are bright as hell in my opinion.

    are you referring to the favtory high beams? They aren’t suppose to be plugged in. The projectors have a plug for the high beams if you ordered the rx350 projectors

    Hi, @kustom54lighting
    The DRL on my passenger side went dim. Sometimes it comes back to normal brightness and sometimes it just stays a bit dimmer than driver side. Any thoughts on how to fix this?
    Thank you! I’ve been getting a lot of awesome comments about these around my town. They are killer!

    I have a 2017 sr5 with the ab6 headlights. But my driver side DRL went out yesterday I’ve check all the connections and I know at least the fuse tap is still working because of the passenger side is still working. Any help would be great!

    You need to send us an email you need a new external driver probably got corroded or just went out that’s what they are meant for to protect the headlight

    Hello, I have emailed you guys twice regarding replacement parts or just some advice on what I could do to fix some of the problems I am having with the headlights. Unfortunately I have not heard back, is there a better way to get in contact with your company? Thanks!
