    Enter the HID police ;) General consensus seems to be that in stock reflector housings on our trucks HIDs cause lots of glare and unfocused light. Full disclosure: I have not tried this on my Tundra, although I've done it on other vehicles in the past with decent results. Whatever you do, stay away from anything above 5000k. Blue light just makes you look Honda-boy.

    I had HIDs in my Tacoma and I enjoyed them but got tired of the extra wires and always feeling like I was blinding people. Also even with the Hi-Low bulb kit the high beams didn't do anything so ur stuck with no high beam. I got mine from DDMtuning. Very cheap and never failed me for the 8 years I owned the taco! Also 55w will be extremely bright. I would just run 35w if you choose to do so.
