    Seeing if anyone has had luck getting led bulbs to function properly in aftermarket projector headlights. Tia

    Projectors are designed for the halogen and HID bulb types. There are no leds that will work properly. Halogen and HID bulbs are 360 degree bulbs and the projector is designed for that purpose. LEDs are only emitting from 2 sides. You lose 50% of the light output by putting it in a projector. I looked into this issue with the wife's 4Runner. If you want proper LED headlights, you want something like Morimoto XB's from @Headlight Revolution. Stay away from Spyders, Anzos, etc. They are known for leaks and improper aiming.

    Any time! I love the XB projectors on my 2020. Definitely a different design than the XB's that i took out of my 2013 which are badass as well! :thumbsup:
