    Lights scheduled to come in next Saturday. I think I'm going to to the very top row 3 light configuration. I like that the best

    I did the second row from the top because I did (4). I like them high but everyone has their preference.
    Edit: it also lined up better with me headlights

    Did you have to modify your grille in any way at that location? From the video I've seen it appears some modification is required no matter where they're installed. I don't really want to modify my OEM grill for a $40 part either so I'm having second thoughts.

    Read my post #447. Mine was pretty smooth but I have seen people with these recent batches trim a bit.

    Yeah those guys told me from running4tacos after I bought the product that their kit is only plug and play on their knock off grille. Would of been nice for them to tell you that on their sales page smh. Crooked business. I originally wanted to install mine on the top row but no way am I modifying the $500 dollar grille for those lights. The best you can do is just try and see if they fit and if not maybe return for another pair. Seems like they are not always the same dimensions, two out of the three for mine were super tight and the other really loose.

    That's 100% what my kit looks like, but for half the damn price! And the ones you got are even better because the smoked lenses, wish I would of just bought the kit you got!! Good find bro and good luck.

    Yeah they are smoked but not white, they are still amber. A good find but I still like the white better.

    Yea no doubt, I prefer the white but would love to have them lightly smoked to blend in with my all black taco.

    Here’s my setup now. I dropped new hikari leds in the lows last night. All my lights match perfectly, I love it. Pics do not do it justice.

    Thanks, man. The smoked lens is the main reason I went with these. Plus it was only $38 so that's not too bad.

    I got stage 1, don't let anyone kid yah they are very very bright! Now that I did that puddle light install I'd be more apt to getting the stage 2, before I did the puddles I was a bit worried about modifying oem parts and what not. Now Im good with it lol.
