    I'm going to see if I can use the LED bulbs in the 4" housings Magnum is selling on their website.

    NOpe. Nada. They sent me a set of Westin 4" halogens with no way to change the bulb. I'm beginning to regret this whole thing. Anybody got any recs on a good 4" round led fog light? Or does anyone know the color temperature for the LED headlights and fog lights?

    Has anybody upgraded 2018 SR5 headlights to the 2018 Platinum headlights?

    Your truck has oem drl LEDs so you would need the platinum harness from @iHacker and motocontrol unit. It’s 100% pnp for you!

    Firestone Airbags; remote starter; replaced stock mirrors with larger, pull-out mirrors for towing; hard plastic sectional cover for bed.
    Has anyone just replaced their bulbs with the Philips "Sealight x2 H4 LED headlight conversion kit?" They are going for $69.99 for a set on Amazon...which is a lot less than replacing the entire light assembly.

    My wife's new 2017 Prius has LEDs and, man, are they super bright!!

    Hello Everyone
    Sorry jumping in a bit late but I don’t want to misunderstand what the lighting mod requires. I have a 2017 CM SR5. Having a lot of stuff done to it and I understand now that the 2018 OEM headlights are LED (can be bought from @Roman and require a harness from @iHacker. A couple of points that are not clear:

    1. This mod is much better than H4 Philips on the normal lights?
    2. Will I be able to know if I can have DRL like the fully loaded one with a ring around the light?Also how will the amber color become less bright when the lights?
    3. How do I check that DRL is on my car (I doubt it) and can it be made to work?

    Thanks

    Ok,

    I should be getting my 2018 OEM LED headlights and fogs this week! Can't wait, I've been searching all over trying too find a straight forward video or set by step on how to remove old and install new headlights and fogs!

    I will also be doing the TRD Pro grill and hood bulge remove and install at the same time thinking it may be easier to do it all at one time, if that makes sense!
    I will also be buying the harness kit, do they come with instructions!

    Any links or input would much be appreciated

    Thanks

    Discounts on the parts are already worked into the price in the store. However, there is the standard forum discount of 20% off the shipping cost. Just use promo code FORUM20.

    @u2asian DUDE! Looking good!!!
    @BlueBottle thank you for the video this is exactly what I was looking for. Good high quality video/pictures from the drivers seat! I'm pretty sure Id be sacrificing a few lumen swapping out the factor 15' housings with the OPT7 Fluxbeam X bulbs.... but not enough to not want to do the conversion lol I cant wait to place an order!

    Just ordered up a set of 2018 LED Headlights. I could not get the 'FORUM20" shipping code to work, but got an email for a "lesser" code as I left the headlights in the cart overnight. I live about an hour away from the dealership, but just did not want to deal with the traffic /time to get their from Fort Campbell. Now the wait begins!

    Hey fellas. New around here. I have a 2016 Tundra TRDPro CrewMax, and as many have pointed out so far, the OEM headlights are about as useful as a cellphone flashlight.

    I might have missed it somewhere in the 15 pages so far, but has anyone taken these 2018 LED headlights and put them into a 2016 TRDPro? Anyone know if it will work and what I'd need?

    Alternatively, anyone have a good suggestion for an aftermarket LED housing that still has the leveling feature?

    Thanks!
