    Very lightly used (< 10 hours for sure, likely < 3h) Tungsram H11 +130 bulbs.
    These are #3 on the list of preferred bulbs for 3rd gen halogen assemblies, #2 for drop-in / no-mod replacements on stock wattage and a very close contender to the +120 Nightbreakers as they clock in at 1086 lux at 18' compared to 1112 for the +120's. They have a partial blue coating which cuts down max intensity a tiny little bit but makes the output a bit whiter.

    For more information on halogen headlight bulb options for 3rd gen Tacomas, please visit the wonderful 3rd gen headlight thread.

    $40 shipped to the continental US.

    DM me for paypal/venmo info and these are yours.

    If you dont mind me asking, what did you switch to LED or another halogen?
    Following the thread, the recommend one would be Tungsram H11 Nighthawk Xenon

    The nighthawk (aka +120) is the top performing H11 followed closely by the +130 which has more blue coating and a slightly whiter light. I found the color of the +130 pleasant. I never got around to trying the +120, it tends to sell out quickly. Availability for both is below what I would like, meanwhile Philips H9 is super easy to find and dirt cheap.

    I went with Toyota OEM LED in my Tacoma and I run H9’s with bulb base mod in my Odyssey, though I am contemplating the Honda LED headlights for it as well. Honestly, even H9’s in a projector leave me unimpressed now that I’m more aware of what quality lighting looks like.

    I’m also working on sourcing high quality parts for a one time super-short H11-H9 custom conversion harness. I’ve tried one decent H9 Nokya extension harness but it just felt too long and bulky to me.

    These are for sale only if someone wants them specifically vs the cheaper and easier H9 option. I might swap them in for one more night drive in the Odyssey just to get a feel for the color difference vs H9.

    They are fun bulbs for sure. And they seem to go in and out of stock at powerbulbs semi regularly so it’s possible to buy a few pair when they are available. At present time the +130 H11’s are OOS, though the nighthawks are available from Walmart.
