    Factory stuff so far. Mud flaps,tow package, weather mats, bed mat.
    Have you had a chance to use these in heavy rain or fog? Interested in what your reasoning for using the white color.
    Could see that working for driving lights but I was under the impression that warmer colors were better for weather but I am just learning the new lighting technology. Really like the idea these come with the lenses at this kind of price point.

    That ^ is one of the reasons I didn't go with XBs. Well, that and a price tag for something I'd have to stick Lamin-X on, to make it fully usable in fog/rain

    I never run with just the fogs on so I can only speak to the combination of visibility with hid which has been outstanding in all conditions. Yesterday morning the 5am fog was out on the way to the gym and I had no glare and the fogs cut through to light up the road lines and curbs just fine. I'm sure there are scenarios where the yellow would be better but I've not considered it an issue yet.

    That's good to hear, actually. I like to be proven wrong, at least on positive things :thumbsup:

    My Hylux are excellent for seeing down the road. My Morimoto XB's work great alongside the Hylux and my Aurora 20" single by lighting up the ditches where those pesky Moose and Deer lurk, just waiting to jump out and plant themselves through the front of my truck.

    Thanks. To your point I would be unlikely to have fog lights on w/o my new HID low beams and to this point I've yet to experience heavy fog or heavy rain (just missed some of both before installing the HID's). One of the main reasons I went with these and the Phillips 4300 is I understand they are exceptional in heavy rain/fog.

    Just bought these off of eBay today with the rounds bulbs 4300k. I was going to gamble on the Morimotos but once I read this thread I was sold on this hid kit for quality and price. Is everyone still pleased with the hylux cnlight kit?

    Very happy with the increased output, reliability has been good. Had a little trouble with bulb color and output match, needed a replacement bulb which was promptly sent no charge. Looking forward to driving my brother-in-laws stock TRDOR so I can make a side by side comparison.

    Had it for 6 months and love it...bought an extra set of bulbs when one or the other of the originals eventually burns out since I don't think you can pop down to the parts store and pick one up...

    I don't know if necessarily TRS is better than DD, but I'm using it, I mean them... Not quite sure if there is a need for dual relays, but oh well

    Wow, thanks for all of the feedback guys. After shopping around for mods for my wife's 4runner, I was under the impression that the Morimoto was the best bang for the buck HID setup. With this kit being half the price and apparently working pretty well, I may grab a set for both my new 18' whenever I get it and my wife's T4R since I never did the upgrade on hers.

    I had the TRS relay harness initially for a past vehicle and it was DOA. When troubleshooting symptoms I was hearing others complain of the same issues with the harness so seems hit or miss from my perspective.

    11 months now and have had zero issues. Just got back from a 10 day Moosey Hunt north of Fort St James, where they made the long night driving getting there and back a heck of a lot safer. Extremely happy with how they perform. Lots of offroad pounding and they have never let me down.

    Mine just came in today. How do I confirm I received the 4300k and h11b?
