2018 led headlights

So question for you guys with these lights. Ur paying

287x2=574
Plug and play harness= 200
Motor control=35

So basically around 800 and thats not including shipping. Are they worth it? Why not a retrofit LED?

 

I don't have them. But my opinion, not worth it.

 

imo I couldn't be happier I love the new look and how bright the leds are

 

I think they are worth it. You are getting oem sealed units which will outlast any retro. Retro will outshine it with light output but not in longevity. So it’s up to you what you want. If you want the brightest output per dollar get a retro. If you want oem quality units then oem!

I got oem and don’t regret it.

 

am i pretty accurate on the price points tho?

 

The $200 Includes the Motocontrol. But yeah your pretty close after all is said and done.

 

Wait for Black Friday and I’m sure you’ll save some money. @Roman will have a bf sale I’m sure.

 

yea that is what im going to do. I was kind of disappointed int the @bajadesigns sales tho lol so wondering what @Roman has up his sleeve

 

I think that is great advice.

With that said I did my Retro myself and I don't regret it. At that time no one had any idea that the 2018 headlights would be LED.

If I were to make the decision right now I'm not sure what I would do, I think I would be happy either way.

I like the look and performance of the Retro, but I also really like the reliability of OEM LEDs. I haven't had any issues with my retro yet, but I know they can't be as reliable as the OEM LEDs.

 

Just do it!
Worth it alone for the drl strips!

 

On my.list for black friday ordering fogs also and i think i might as well copy ur raptor lights. @BlueBottle

 

That is truckporn right there...

 

My retros are coming with new led projectors so might be better then the new Toyota lights being I don’t think they are in a projector housing

 

Are the fogs different on an 18?

 

Yes, LED to match the new LED headlights. Here is what they look like. Have to do the anytime fog mod now to run them with just the DRL.

 

I have both the OEM LED and fog replacement and love em!! the motor control feature is sweet! When you're pulling a trailer and still want to daylight the road and not the oncoming traffic's face holes it's a must

 

I just ordered my 2018 LED Headlights from my local Toyota dealer for $650. I'm gonna order my harness from @iHacker.

 

Do it!!

 

@BlueBottle, can you share the part number for those orange lights in your grill; they look great! And do they look orange in person, or just in this pic?

 

Might be calling the dealer on those fogs lol tomorrow morning

 

$10 GG Grand General 77650 Amber Thin Line 6-LED Marker and Clearance Sealed Light, Amber/Amber

They are orange. This pic depicts it pretty good.

 

Thank you!!

 

Man that looks awesome! So both LED strips replace the Amber DRLs? Any chance seeing from in cab view highs n lows in dark road??? What about the dogs you have em set up anytime fog MOD?

 

For those who are looking for a wiring harness for the 2018 LED headlights, I highly recommend IHacker’s harness. IMHO his harness quality is the best that I have seen on this site after researching all the different harnesses for my headlights. Everything is crimped and soldered perfectly. I’m usually OCD on quality but I couldn’t find a single thing wrong with his harness. His harness will dim the DRL with when headlights are on and fully bright when they’re off just like how the factory headlight operate. I paid $175 for my SR5 harness shipped. I didn’t have to splice any of the factory wiring as he provides a male pin to connect to the factory pin. The thing I like best about iHacker is that he quickly responds to PMs and answer all of my questions and concerns before and after the purchase. Totally happy with my purchase.

 

I will move in that direction. I think Leo's harness doesn't dim the DRL.

 

You're absolutely right! @BlueBottle has a seriously dope looking front end

 

How close in color are they in relation to the common side markers?

 

I feel violated.. now i know how women feel!

 

Youre just lucky i dont treat you like the women i take advantage of

 

It’s pretty close but the side markers aren’t as bright. You can kinda see it here
