Josh, I want to thank you again. TRD Sparks is amazing. I love their customer service and helpfulness to all of their customers. Take care sir and I can't wait until I get my head lights. I will be sure to post pics for you.
OK! i just wanna make sure what im reading is correct. I have an 06 with HIDs. If i want to run the 08 headlights all i would need to do is buy an H11 low beam bulb and an H1 high beam bulb and it will work? If so, Ive got some saving to do.

So I gotta keep the H1 bulb for the high beams? or can I put halogen bulb on the high beams without any splitting/soldering?

Waiting to see an install with pics before i move out on this. But definitly has my interest peaked. Maybe make the switch to HID's if all i truly need is to just get a kit and plug it up and go without splicing everything up.
To those of yall who bought the headlights, i expect pictures of install (HID and for the folks that decide to take the Halogen road)

i still cant get over the bulbing and nipple thing that they added to the cover.
anyone thinking of switching 5-07 headlight covers to the 08 headlights? it looks like it should clear with no problems
then everythign should look alright asthetically. i dont know it will make the beam pattern worse though or worse if the projectors will melt the cover lol.

The bulge is there for a reason, its not because someone just randomly thought "hey lets put a bulge right here" and i do expect pictures, cuz if i did it first people would expect pictures too
As for the folks that think the orange of the headlight is too much.... Servco let me play around a bit this evening and switch out one of the turn signal bulbs with one of my PIAA mirror orange bulbs from my baby so i can see if they would fit. The result, well.... Spectacular if i do say so myself.



Now im either waiting on someone that does the swap and puts pictures up, or me to find the extra 6-700 dollars to do the full swap how I want to.
