    So I just received my truck (15 SWDC SR5) back from the body shop. They had to replace everything on the right front. The headlight they replaced is not Auto Leveling which it originally had. So I start searching the part number in the quote and find it. Obviously it doesn't say anything about having Auto Leveling feature. So I start looking around for OEM lights that have that feature... I can't seem to find them ??

    I am going to swap headlights out anyways with the 18 TRD Pro gloss black (already have them).. But I want the stock lights to be the same for selling purposes ...

    On a side note ( I know it's the wrong section, but) ... They screwed up on the mirrors as well.. I had previously replaced the stock chrome mirrors (still have them) with pull out towing mirrors (aftermarket)... Had to replace the one on the right... They were very cheap mirrors and the chrome (painted plastic) was pitting/looking like shit... So I asked him to replace both mirrors with OEM Tow mirrors... Well, He forgot and just went by the vin number and put black stock mirrors back on it... WTF ...

    So when I went to the dealer to pick up my TRD lights I asked about OEM towing mirrors... He proceeds to tell me I can't get OEM towing mirrors... The only way to have them is if they came on the vehicle... Do WHATTT... ?

    Oh man seems like they scammed you and went with very low/cheap quality parts, all the OEM headlights comes with the auto leveling motors attached even the old halogen lights on SR5 trucks, check all the parts and bet they used TYC or similar generic ones

    For the tow mirrors is a total bummer you can buy whatever you want, if that specific dealership doesn’t want your money try a different one that simple.


    If you have the part numbers you can try buying online as well
