    Great, that sounds good guys. If you can get shots looking down the road of how the lights perform that'd be great. Shots looking into the bulbs really don't show anything. If you could get a shot in the rain too looking down the road on a dark night that'd be awesome.

    Yeah, i'll take several different angles looking in towards the truck and towards the road as well. I would take pictures in the rain and all that, but i live in San Diego.. it hardly ever rains. If it does, our "rain" doesn't compare to what rain is to you.

    I'll do my best to help out. i know what angles and different things i would have liked to see as a potential buyer, so i'll try my best to get those shots for future potential buyers.

    That sucks! no street lights in the neighborhood? Crazy..
    I'm just used to street lights Everywhere.

    But those are good pictures! thanks. I maybe should have ordered the 6k rather than the 8k.. But it's ok. I do want some blue in them as well.

    I love not having the street lights. At night when the dog barks I can get outside and see whats going on because I know the yard and where all my shits at, scared some kids one night wondering around. Lights help the crooks see, I only want them to notice the muzzle flash, however slight. It also helps take good pics for TW. I got the 6000k because I was told you can see better with them than the 8000k. I don't know because I have never owned them, but I love mine.

    It looks like you have yours aimed up pretty high. I can't even see the cutoff point in those pics. Those pics are however more useful then many of the other pics I've seen so far. Thanks for posting them.

    Is the cutoff about the same in definition with the HID's? Or does it get less or more defined.

    Glad you pointed that out. I was parked in my driveway and it is slightly higher than the road. They are actually aimed lower than my brothers Tacoma, his is stock and mine has 3" lift with 33s
