    I'm looking to replace my headlights with some blacked/smoked out headlights/taillights instead ... im looking through ebay and see alot of items that say "does not fit led drl strip models" some also say "won't fit level adjuster headlights", which mine do have the adjuster on the back .. are these on mine the halogen headlight with led strip? .... anyone here have smoked out headlight/tail light that can suggest a good option?

    Those are OEM led lights. Why would you want to replace those? They do have the OEM led pro which has a blacked out inside. But no way would I buy eBay leds to replace those.

    Your headlights are killer! I wouldn't change them. As far as rears I would go with hot shot off road Hot Tails. You could go with the 2018 TRD Pro headlight...

    You have the 2018-2021 oem led headlights, those lights are good. If you like the smoke or black out version, maybe go for the trd pro which is the black out version.

    For taillights , go with what @UTAHRTK said.
    Hotshot Hotails are really good. You keep the original oem factory tail lights but they help you replace your rear led tail lights. They have a few options on how you want your tail lights function. If you don’t like their 3 types of set up, you can just opt for led upgrades for the tail lights.

    All I want is the housing to be tinted, I'd keep the lights if I can, just tryna black out some things on my truck, headlights is on the list

    I see I can get pre-cut vinyl overlays which can go right over the headlight to tint them . . . Idk what the best option would be

    For what you are looking to do it sounds like the black housing TRD pro headlamp assemblies would be the way to go. You could probably sell yours pretty easily in order to ease the expense.

    I just got them after running with OEM halogens since 2017. After reading headlight reviews... I never really considered the other LED options, but there are some nice looking options out there. There are some good posts on here with regard to smoking your taillights as well.
