BHLM is available from the dealer? pic inside

x2. the smoked is hardly noticeable, these are very dark.

 

It's just the lighting.

 

The amber reflectors are needed to be legal.

 

My mooney is on those being the factory smoked headlights ..you can see light reflections in some spotsthat look grayish

 

In California. Yet another reason to get the hell out of that state.

Legal doesn't concern me. Having the truck I want does.

 

are we talking "smoked" as the front plastic is tinted and not glass clear?

IIRC, it was glass clear and just the inner bit was blacked. i didnt look at it long.

 

Yes sook, im 99% sure those are the same stock headlights I had before I did the BHLM. And its the inner plastic that is "smoked" or a chrome gray color but like someone mentioned above, the color they appear to be depends on how much lighting there is while viewing them (more light makes them look a lighter gray while less lighting makes the headlights look darker )

 

HAHAHAHA move out of the state cuz I cant have clear reflectors in my headlights?!? NA


Ehh to each his own. The amber refelctors dont even bother me. I actually like the look of the amber with the BHLM.

 

mine have the black/smoked housing from factory

 

Far from the only reason. But we're getting sidetracked.

 

i understand your preference, but regarding the above statement...

amber reflectors are probably required in most if not all states, no?

they are in mine, as well as the surrounding states.

btw these OE smoked lamps are 219.xx each from toyotapartsbarn.com. msrp is 296.xx each.

 

HAHAHA Yea your right.

I think the BHLM looks way better on the tacos than the new ones that come from the factory.

 

Yeah, probably.

 

looking at the secound closer pic......i may hav a lil more doubt......u can see how glossy it is in there, and im sure most ppl dont do the glossy BHLM......plus i went to albertsons last night and i saw a brand new taco OR DB......it had the "smoked HL" but they werent no where close to being that black, the ones a saw where "smoke" with like a greyish tint kinda color, and it was night time....i didnt get all close cuz i didnt want the person walking out and hav them see me inspectiong there truck lol...........


but im kinda 50/50 now

*too dark/ new HL seam like a greyish tint

*they look glossy in the secound pic, so that threw me off

* i really dont care lol...ahahahaha

o well
