    Hey guys,

    I have a 2010 tacoma, I just finished installing some ebay black headlights and ddm tuning HID lights for my headlights and fogs. They all work which is a great relief. After putting everything back in, (headlights and grill) i closed the hood to pull out so I can aim them. Now I cant open the hood, something seems jammed.....any ideas??????
