    Recently ordered:

    - OEM 2019 TRD Pro headlights

    - iHacker harness

    - Hood bulge (MGM)

    - 2019 TRD Pro sport grill/surround MGM (picked up from another member)

    Still looking to pick up some factory 2018 OEM LED fogs.

    I'm planning on doing this all at once. Been here a few weeks and I'm already broke! Thanks!!!

    Anyways, concerning the headlight install, to you guys who have done it already, are you marking your light positions before you begin the install? I have two garages and have zero access to either so I'll be doing this in my driveway.

    As I recall the instructions were to focus the lights on a wall, in my case, the garage door, in highest setting (trimmed up from the level control) at 25 feet away. I marked it bright spots with tape on the door and a mark on the drive, and compared the new lights to old. If it’s off, you can reset adjust manually. Mine were close, so I didn’t bother.

    Just to add: You can always make your marks where convenient and drive back to the location after. That’s what I did.

    That's what I was thinking.

    I was just wondering if there's been a need for alot of adjustment.

    In theory they are all fit the the same and adjusted at the factory but a level kit and lift will affect that. I like that I can adjust the lights for conditions. Mine were a little high after installation, so I lowered them with the level control 1 notch.
