    Just in case anyone else is shopping for these - ended up finding the best price (with no tax) from Lithia Toyota in Billings, MT. Shipping costs were just under the $200 free shipping offer, so ended up shipping was free.
    Now as long as they show up… (had a Canadian dealer take my order, then happily cancel it a few hours later with no explanation)

    2020 SR5 with factory halogen headlight, one strip led on the bottom.
    I ordered my harness from headlight revolution, and OEM trdpro led headlight housings, simple swap on and it is one of the best mod I did, night and day difference compared to halogen.

    Just bought a set of the OEM LED headlights. :spending: Emailed my local Toyota parts place and asked if they would price match Sparks and they did! No shipping cost and can pick them up locally! Ended up getting them dropped from like $350 per light to $290! Doesn't hurt to ask for a price match.

    You beat me to it. Glad you found them. They shipped my lights out yesterday, so you should be good. I also just ordered the TRD Pro grill from them too.

    There is another dealer in Alabama that is selling stuff a little cheaper, but since Montana is closer I figured the few dollars more was worth it for less chance of shipping damage.

    Enjoy!

    Yep, they called to confirm my order and apologized since it would take a day or two to ship since they weren’t in stock. Great service, and very friendly. Low price, no tax, free shipping…it all works.

    I got the recall done, then had a halogen bulb go out, so I made the LED swap. Wait for a big holiday sale and find the dealership with the cheapest price for the headlights. Super easy to install. One of the few upgrades I feel proud to install. Just made sure you label each bolt. 10mm bolts have different thickness. Some are made for headlight, and some are for the side panel. Don’t mix the panel and headlight 10mm.

    I would take the OEM headlights over morimoto v1 especially for the price difference. The morimoto v2 seem slightly better from what I've read. Is it worth double the price? I don't think so though. OP you made a good call with OEM.

    One thing I have noticed with my stock LED headlights is they seem to have solved the issue of clouding over of the front lenses. My 2006 Tundra was terrible at this and I eventually replaced them with an after-market set. My 2018 is sparkling clear with no degradation at all.

    @SPOirish28 Got it from Headlight Revolution last fall, they (and Morimoto) were running a special which included the 4Banger Wide fogs free.

    @NCred OEM's were also an option for me, but I already had the NSV bar and the special ↑ they were running was too good to pass up.

    1. Good idea.
    2. Super easy
    3. Yes, even with removal of grille, it's still super easy.

    It's fairly easy, just take your time and keep a soft hand. Dont meat hand stuff. I also suggest buying some extra plastic push rivets because there's a good chance some of yours might break. I know some of mine did. 3 bolts on each headlight if I remember. Have a magnetic tray near by so you don't lose any. My R led turn signal bulb has fell out of socket so much I'm a pro at taking that grill off now :curls:

    I'm not a fan of the TRD LEDs. The light output is better but still leaves a lot to be desired compared to headlights on other vehicles I've owned.

    I wish there was a stock projector style option.

    Just finished upgrading to TRD Pro grill and LEDs. Thanks for all the tips. Very happy. Easy job. @iHacker harness worked perfect.

    Protip for the TSS if you opt for the grille- add 2 washers below the radar plate on the top silver screw to angle the sensor up. Fixed calibration, even for my knockoff eBay garnish (on OEM Grille). Zero reason to spend money on the expensive garnish or do any mods to a cheap garnish. 2 washers and you’re done. Enjoy!

    Yes, I am. Luckily, I’m just across the border, so ordering from the US worked out (picked it up in WA) and ended up being cheaper to boot.
    Got the ihacker harness, which looks excellent, and now I just have to do the actual install.

    I have the Morimoto v2's sitting in my garage... just need to find time to install. Stocks are halogens so it'll be a crazy difference. Will post a pic once I get to it.
