    I just never saw the point to BHLMing if you don't clearcorner while you're in there.

    well i had these out for the first time in the dark last night. the lighs are definently not as good as the stock ones, im not crazy about the light pattern and they need adjustment to make the beams even. overall im still happy

    6% Tint all around, Toyota all-weather floor mats, Toyota bed extender and skid plate, Python 991 remote-start alarm, oem cruise control and class III hitch were all installed within a couple months. I then installed Icon c/o's and Icon's 3-leaf aal with 17x9" GA9's and 285/70/17 Goodyear Duratrac's. The DRL mod was done, as was a custom rack setup similar to the org. cross bars. Blacked out headlights bought online, and a BOSS 1500 under-seat sub installed along with a Pioneer double-din DVD player
    I agree...the light isn't dispersed as well as the stockers. I had to adjust mine big time, but I think I got it where it needs to be. Overall, I'm still happy w/ my purchase. I did switch out the running light bulbs w/ the stock ones, b/c the stock ones are more orange than yellow-orange like the new ones.

    Just installed mine as well. I marked the light pattern on the wall with the stocks and then after installing these adjusted to the same marks. I can tell the light is not as bright, but they look great on the car! I will report back after i take it out in the dark, and get some pics when i pull the truck out of the garage later.

    Did you get the smoked fogs from the seller x3racing on ebay? I'm thinking of ordering those myself

    Hi! I just saw this post as I'm looking to grab a pair. My Stock '06's are half foggy, embarrasing to look at and the whiter bulbs seem useless with the lens so yellar. I'm new at this, so I was wondering where do you put the bead of silicone? Sorry, just want to do it right the first time.
