    Hello TW,

    I've been lurking around the forums here for about 1 month now, and wanted to finally say Hi to everyone, and share my new truck. I've been working on cars for a while, and had various setups from NA autocross cars, to 650whp turbo street car, but really never messed with a truck before. Always wanted a Tacoma, so I figured what the heck.

    I do NOT do or plan to do any crazy offroading at all. At the most, go camping somewhere, so I opted to get the Limited model. So far 2500 miles, and love this thing!

    Here she is the day I got it off the lot.

    Wasn't too happy with the stock lights, so I got some HID's on there which work great with the stock projectors, and got some Auxbeam LED Fogs. The fogs do a decent job, but with the HID's no real need to drive with both on.

    Found a local shop here and ordered some wheels and tires already, so I'll post pics when they get in!

    Kensun 35w. the 55w is way to bright for no reason for regular driving. The cut off on the stock projector housing is pretty dam straight.

    Got them on Amazon for $50

    Also - they don't requiring any modifications at all. The dust boot does not need to get cut out like some of the other H11's setups are. :thumbsup:

    Just get H11. the H11B really only makes a diff on the halogen style bulbs. For HID's its all the same from what I've seen.
