    So I just swapped to the sequoia headlights, I think it looks pretty good but I keep looking at the Morimoto website and thinking I want those headlights more now… I ordered the harness through a member on this site which works great and have painted the fender extensions with paint matched to my factory IF9 paint and sprayed them with spray max 2k clear. They turned out great in my opinion. If anyone is interested in these let me know! And let me know what you think of these vs Morimotos.

    I think that the morimoto and sequoia headlights are the 2 best options for upgrading lighting on the gen 2. I'm still on the fence of which route I'm going but if it were my rig I'd leave it alone. You have the poor lighting issue resolved and it looks badass.

    If you’re kinda of electrician inclined
    you can figure it out
    the main part is the diagram and getting some sort of harness with a relay to start and then male connectors for the turn light, lower and high beam, some sort of de-pin and pin kit to wire it to the OEM 8pin headlight connector

    Absolutely hands down best mod for 2nd gens appearance. Modernizes it and definitely improves lighting output! I like the OEM Seqouia conversions a little better than the Morimotos, but both are a dramatic improvement. Looks awesome guys!!
