Led headlights (1 Viewer)

[Beauregard]

Hi all, I’ve got a restored 1980 fj40 and would like to add LED headlights. I was set to order the Cityracer ones but they are sold out. Wondering if anyone has any suggestions? Only looking for LED thanks.

Suggestions? Yup, I got one. Wait for CityRacer to be re-stocked...

EDIT: I got the City racers and love them.

I emailed cityracer and no response so I’m moving on.....

Well, there are plenty of choices out there.
All the cool jeeps around here have the fancy colored rings around the headlights as well...

Usually, the one lesson that one learns while restoring an FJ40 is patience. ..

Yep, buy a cheaper brand then go back later and buy what you should have waited on. I have a box full of junk knock off parts. Weatherstripping and chinese fender lights to name two.

I didn’t get an answer to an email to him either but that’s the way it goes sometimes.....
I’ll be putting my hard top back on this winter and I’ll very likely buy his roof gasket!

*There are other options but his are great and you can’t beat the ease of install!

Wait a sec, you've GOT a restored 1980 FJ 40 or you've RESTORED a 1980 FJ40?
Big difference. If you've GOT a restored FJ40, just throw any old off the shelf pair of LED lights you find at AutoZone. See if you can make them work correctly.
If, on the other hand, you have restored that FJ40, wait for CityRacer.
CityRacer has that lovely plug and play feature that works with the Toyota wiring.

There is a huge difference between the two

I just bought a pair of 7" LEDs.

Take a look at the Anzo 881036 (highly regarded - if you can stand the silly logo holder in the center).

I went with the Dapper Lighting OE7 with the "classic" glass lens, they are on sale for a few more days, and they are already shipping them to me.

I just installed a set of LED headlights, that I got from cityrace, on my 79 FJ40. The improvement is remarkable. Its like switching from a 25 watt bulb to a 100 watt bulb
