    Not gonna last long doing mods if you can't take a couple screws and clips out to change or modify headlights. Pretty easy..

    I want them for the buckets but I don't know what you would be able to retrofit into them.

    The quote below on their site confuses me, what do you mean "might be needed"? Haven't you installed these on a vehicle and know EXACTLY what's needed?!:confused:

    It's a generic write up that they put in all headlights. They are good with answering questions if you contact them.

    Just tried having a buddy help me get my headlights popped open on my 2019 Taco.. The sealant and adhesive they use on the new ones is different then previous generations and is INCREDIBLY hard to pry open without totally fucking the entire edging around the housing. Also we were pretty sure it could've resulted in cracking the lens if we tried harder. This was after 15 minutes at 270 and nothing was budging. The hard plastics were melting quicker as a result and the sealant stayed tight as hell... anyone else have retrofitting experience on a 2018-2019 Taco?? Any success stories that didn't absolutely mangle your headlight seals?

    Heads up, I will have a pair of OEM Headlights going up for sale here soon. If you are interested PM me. Will most likely buy Depo's and work with my friend to pimp it out with custom LEDs.

    Yes, 3rd gens use permaseal. Much more difficult to open that butyl!
