    Rx350 retrofitted, Morimoto Led fogs. interior and exterior leds swap. TRD drop in filter. Carbon filter delete. Led DRL panels. TRD Shift knob.
    The design of the morimoto look a little better in term of it, 'snap' in. I have the vleds and it's held in by double sided tape. After 2yrs the driver side had started to sag. That's something to consider.
    The vleds are pretty bright. Dont know how bright the morimoto are.

    Run some LED strip lighting along the under jambs of your doors. Puts the light right where you need it vs shining on your door. You can tap into your courtesy lights. Total cost under $20.

    Snaps into place just like OEM! :) Definitely a good jump over the stock setup, saved my shoes from menacing puddles a couple of times getting out of the Tundra! :rofl:

    They come out to be a 5,500k color temp! That is right in the middle of 5K Pure white and that 6k modern LED white color you'll see out there!

    5500k is same as the vleds one.
    I would totally get these if you are in the market for one. Clip in like factory, good, bright, color temp. No messy double-sided tape.

    Im starting to consider getting these and sell the vleds one.

    The red and black wire go up and tap into the courtesy light wires.
