LED Light Conversion

I just ordered these clear turn signal housing from the amber colored. Any recommendations for LED lights for turn signal and headlights?

Welcome. Hopefully you have an 04 Double Cab. The headlight and turn signal assemblies on the 04 Double Cabs are a different size than the 05-06 Double Cabs.

 

There's a plethora of LED headlight threads to read through in the 1st gen forum. What you'll find inside them can probably be summarized like this:

• Expect to have fog light switch or always-on problems
• Expect to have hyperflash problems if you use OEM flasher module
• Expect to potentially blind other drivers, depending on your housing AND your LED bulb choice
• Expect potentially squirrely behavior/short life span on the bulbs/housing melting or other damage if you choose to go cheap
• Buy bulbs that have good heat dissipation to avoid other problems
• A lot of the bulbs you'll find on scAmazon and fleaBay are made in the same factory but branded under different names, and have no QC, so you'll see wild mixes of 1-star and 5-star reviews ...

Quite a few guys on here have swapped to LED, then ultimately changed back. We haven't seen as many threads here the past 6 months or so, but for a while, it was nearly weekly threads of people having other lighting issues after switching to LED headlights.

Note that Headlight Revolution @Headlight Revolution is a vendor on the forum and has premium kits that are no-brainer solutions and offer (from what I've seen) solid aftermarket support.

Be ready to spend $$ to get a setup with the least possible issues. You get what you pay for in the lighting world....

 

For the turn signals, I bought these

They have been working great since I've installed them back in March 2020. I did change the turn signal relay for an LED compatible one. This will stop the "hyper" flash AND you can adjust the speed of the turn signal.

For the headlights, I wouldn't install just any LED lamp. Do your research on that.
I kept a stock housing for spares and bought BX Builts LED head lights. They're super nice and expensive. Worth the money? Depends on the person but I'm happy with them.

I’ve got diode dynamics for the rear brake lights, 3rd brake lights and rear turn signals. My reverse lights are vled v6 Tritons. Also got morimotos license plate lights (requires slight trimming to fit, even though there listed as fitting). No hyperflash with my setup, the stock flasher module was swapped for a smart module.

up front I’m running diode dynamics switchbacks in my turn signals. Headlights are morimoto 2 stroke 3.0s (led mimics a traditional filament in pattern output). Fog lights were swapped to Baja designs squadrons saes.

interior lights are all diode dynamics also.
