    I like depo personally. The screws on the back are Phillips not torx and I believe there's more screws. The seals suck on depos but if your ripping the seal out and doing a new sealant who cares. Oem quality will always be better but 90% of the time your stock headlights are already hazing and the lenses don't look great. The clearer the better. The best is brand new oem lights but expect to pay. So I settle for depo

    All morimotos parts from TRS. It's the best of the best IMO and don't do H1s go for the mini d2s. I've done 20ish sets

    OEM 2005-2011 smoked headlights:
    These are available loaded with bulbs, and unloaded w/o bulbs, saving $60 off the set . These part numbers are for the unloaded housings.
    Right #81130-04173 http://stores.revolutionparts.com/toyotaparts.bochtoyotasouth.com/oe-toyota/8113004173
    Left #81170-04173 http://stores.revolutionparts.com/toyotaparts.bochtoyotasouth.com/oe-toyota/8117004173

    There are OEM smoked lights, which are darker but not blacked out. Run about $340.

    Edit: Pics are of the 2012+ lights.

    Just out of curiosity, can you tell me if you found out where the water was getting in? Was the light output from the projectors garbage or so so?
