    I just bought a 2016 sr5 with the TRD upgrade package. I noticed the factory bulbs arent as bright as i would like them to be, and so i been looking into doing an upgrade whether it be HID, LED, or even just a simple non ballast type upgrade. Not sure what road to venture down. Ive heard mixed feelings in regards to the ballast of both upgrades on how they can burn out or over heat or simply not function. What is the best route as far as headlights and fog light upgrades?

    @Ciagrossi I retrofitted my headlights and that made a big difference. Check my Sig (turn phone sideways to see on mobile) for info on the retrofit.
    My fogs are stock for now, the headlights are so bright now I am satisfied.
    If I had the extra money and time I would prob go with the Rigid SAE fogs with their vehicle specific mount. That way I can use them on the road.
