    Have a burned out low beam bulb. Can someone Skool me on neato replacements, or are the Advance Auto bulbs just as good as any?

    Unless you are looking to run a standalone wiring harness I wouldn't bother spending the money on anything "special".

    If all you want is an OE equivalent bulb, the parts store bulb should work fine. A little on line research will get you more in info on upgrading your headlight bulbs (ie - Sylvania Silverstar / Phillips Ultra Vision, etc)
    Opinions will vary, but, before upgrading to Sylvania bulbs (no additional harness required), the last replacement bulb I bought was from NAPA, it worked just fine.

Aftermarket halo headlights with HID, various LED bulb replacements. 17" Fuel Blitz wheels with some 33" Nitto terra grapplers. Hoodscoop, nfab nerfbars, Bushwacker flares.

    Sealight is one of the many chiniseum led suppliers. I've bought some of their t9 bulbs for interior/exterior Tundra lighting, they are decent.

    I have the VLED micros for low beams. They have been great so far.

    Hi Gravy and Shanet421. Did either of you get any radio interference when you installed the LED headlights? I have tried some other brads before that really caused a lot of static over the radio. Thanks.

    I have not noticed any type of FM radio interference at all. I couldn’t be happier with the Alpharex Pros paired with the vled low beams.
