    Just got a 2015 it has level motor. Should not make a difference when i get new oem housing right? Or is there a specific housing required for level motor headlights. Seems dumb to ask but i dont want to spend 150 only to find out housing wont work. Thanks guys

    Same mounting points. You will just not connect the wire harness for the motor.

    From what i see based on search they offer housing that has motor included for around 170.00 driver side only. Same goes for pass. The motor is built into the housing. Does this sound correct? I see a led conversion oem but its wicked expensive although to replace both housing with new led bulbs i would be at about 450 before tax. They want 800 for those fancy 2018 2019 led lights...

    If you're looking for the OEM LED headlight assemblies go through a online Toyota parts vendor, they will be cheaper than theretrofitsource and headlight revolution, etc. Then buy the necessary adapters from iHacker or similar.

    Got oem off rock auto. Always stick with oem. Those fancy aftermarket lights are junk. Cheap drl leds. I almost bought the spyders but glad i didnt. Oem housing plus philips xtreme ultinon h4 led should work fine

    Is TYC OEM? Those are the only ones I see on Rock Auto that aren't "Various Manufacturers"
