    Sounds like you guys are going to get some more messy stuff today. Time to test out the 4wd :)

    Going to run with the LS460Rs again--I can't cope with less output than them.

    We're also doing Lexus logo etched lenses and misty midnight (my new accent color) passive demon eyes.

    A good bit. I'd put mine up against S2000s with curved cutoffs. I don't know who would win, but we'll see when TRSCarlos and TRSVal finish their retrofits with S2K/Curved.

    I was thinking about getting the nightbreakers, I like the CBI's but I just want as much light output as possible.

    Not sure if I want to go 50w, but Id love to see a comparison to 35w. Im assuming the Osrams take 50w no problem?

    Andrew, Hello, I have a 2014 Toy Tacoma and installed LED lights around the headlights. The stock headlights look brown compared to the leds. What type bulb can I replace them with??? I am not up on the projection lights ,I think that is what I have.
    The owners manual doesn't give me a # of the bulb. I think it is H11 / H4 from what I have read. Thank You for your time and help if you can. Jim Mangan. Poppy1591@aol.com

    If I don't run it myself how can I sell it? ;)

    For the fog lights, I'm thinking about retrofitting those "bullet" / "honeycomb" marker lights from the Subaru retrofit and then just throwing a 60mm amber ring on them, maybe fired backward.

    Example (with ring firing forward):
