    The headlights on my '05 SR5 AC 2WD are foggy and yellow and I'm looking to replace them. However, every time I see replacements on Amazon, they're labeled "Crew Cab only, no Access Cab" or "TRD or 4WD models only." Is there really that much of a difference between trim levels of the same year? If so, where can I actually find headlights that fit? I'm just looking to replace with stock equivalent.

    Yes, they are "that different"!

    Only get CAPA-certified housings.
    RockAuto has a great selection.
    Please see the "Lighting info ..." section of THIS THREAD for related info.

    So, I had looked on Rock Auto, but I didn't see any for access cab. Is that the same as extended cab?

    They’re one in the same:
    Ford -> Toyota (2000-2006)
    Extended cab = Access cab
    Crew cab = Double cab

    Terms you'll see:

    "Access Cab" == "extended cab" == "w/o double cab" == "w/o crew cab" where W/O means WITHOUT

    "Double Cab" == "crew cab"

    Additionally. Any time you see "w/o double cab" or "w/o crew cab", that basically means "every cab EXCEPT double cab", i.e. it'll fit access cab or regular cab.

    I got the Depo headlights from RockAuto last year for my '06 AC. They're okay but not great.

    I'd really like to find glass lenses to replace the old plastic ones on my original housings. Anybody know of such?

    They still make glass headlight lenses? I thought that disappeared sometime in the 90s.

    That's what I'm asking. There are replacement glass lenses for 100/200 series Land Cruisers.

    Toyota never made them for the FGTs, and I doubt any of the aftermarkets do either. Looks like Land Cruisers and LX470s were some of the last Toyotas to get them in the early 00s.
