............get another one!! my advice is get a H4 conversion so you can put those eurolights on HID would be nice....but you'll get pulled over by cops for having improper lighting.
its easy to remove and install....its pretty straight thru

BTW i use Bosch H4 conversion

I have clear diamond cut housings and I'm using PIAA 110W bulbs..

You can spend some money and enhance your lighting, or you can just buy a sealed housing from Crappy Tire for 9 bucks I think!



or

bah use sealed beam. i notice with those white lights that they dont light up the road much(from my experience). altho they are bright to the eyes, they just dont really reflect off the ground and so u cant see much at night.
the yellowy sealed beams actually seem to do a decent job.

if ur all about lighting then get HID...otherwise i say stay away from those blue/white stuff

Lights are lights... i've decided to just get regular replacement ones from CT or Walmart. At least when they blow during the winter I wont have to worry about how much they cost. Thanks for the help.

I have these headlights and I got the housing for $85 and the bulbs for $25

They're great and they haven't burnt out on me yet..

White_SR5 you've seen my headlights! If you want just replace them from CT and then consider it, you should always have the factory ones handy just in case!

I put my factory headlights on my Chevette cause they light in her were busted.. But I still have them...

Oh and by the way! The lights work great and they light up the street 10 times better than the regular lights. Plus they look amazing.. And they enhance the look of your car by far, my car looked a lot newer with these lights...

Would there be any other place that would sell them?
Im assuming that Toyota parts are pricey. I might be interested in a pair of those.
