To be clear, there is a control board, this flicker is different than just straight, uncontrolled voltage underpowering the LED, so the flicker's not as bad as that. These are hella cheap tho 😆

My guess is "no," I too have noticed a slight flicker if I'm not looking right at them. This is a byproduct I think of the lower wattage/voltage getting fed to the LEDs, and them stepping down in brightness. I'm not an electrical engineer, but I wanted to be sure it's not a problem before...

I definitely feel your pain. I have a new-to-me 2013 and a lot of my plans are in a bit of a holding pattern until this gets sorted out. If it's any consolation, it's not just the new GXs that are suffering, PT228-60140 isn't available for anybody. On the flip side, I have personally seen GXs...

Hey man, your were in one of the million threads I've been reading! I think your parents were moving or something and you got the Curt as a stop gap...? I've also looked over the Twitter feed, some guy in the middle east was also asking about PT228-60140, Lexus' response was basically "ask...

Honestly I don't a trip planned, but this is 'MURICA, I want it NOW :rofl: In all seriousness though, I really did get the GX in part because of the increased tow capacity (the other part is this truck is a friggin' tank, but...) I've considered a rear bumper replacement, but none of the...

Sorry to resurrect a dead post, but I have a 2013 and have been :banghead: looking for an OEM hitch. If you have one, it's solid gold, because you cannot find an OEM hitch anywhere except I guess a junkyard. I return bleary-eyed from reading the internet over and over, and I have found two...

Auxito DD-10S bulbs (size 9005). 9005 HB3 LED Bulb Forward High Beam Bulb 12000LM CANBUS Equipped with advanced ZES LED chips - https://auxito.com/collections/10s-series-headlight-bulbs/products/9005-led-headlight-bulb-52w-12000-lumen?sscid=41k6_syyzi& Currently on sale I think for $50, I...

They're all plug and play. Pretty awesome. The Y13 model for the low beams has a small box containing what I assume is a controller board wired in line with the plug, so you have a little extra to cram into the low beam compartment (there's a circular cap that seals everything in like a jar)...

FWIW, 2013 manual, pages 116 and 772 have the same graphic but say only up to 10%, and specifically state not to use E15, E50, E85, or anything with more than 10% ethanol. I vaguely remember someone mentioning an SAE article from the 80s or something about ethanol blends, basically indicating...

Sure. Shoot me a PM, I'm SUPER new and have basically no experience with this forum or how to do stuff, let me know what buttons to push. I've confirmed that there is definitely a difference in light output between the low voltage of the DRL mode vs. high beams; a huge difference, although I...

Installed Auxito DD-10S bulbs (size 9005) today. Above is a comparison between the new bulb passenger side and the old halogen on the driver's side. I just got my truck a few weeks ago, so I have no idea how old the original halogens were, but there's some brown stuff on the inside of the...

I was a pretty firm believer in the argument that LEDs are not capable of putting light where it's supposed to go since there's a gap in light projection. Then I saw this Youtube video and it changed my mind: This guy actually puts in halogen bulbs and puts them side by side with LED bulbs...
