The Amazon LED plug in $45 lights are an A++ mod.

I've had another 3x more expensive set for 2 years and these smoke smoke smoke them and are 20x better than stock.

Low only

High plus Vision X

The Vision X used to make 100% difference. Now, just a bit more distance. Not that much.

Crazy good upgrade for $90 for all 4 bulbs.

Are those the Stark-brand lights?

How is using LEDs in the stock housing any better than sticking HIDs in there with respect to glare and blinding other drivers? The cops here will pull you over for that now.

I wonder the same thing. However, something had to be done. I couldn't see sh!t with my old lights.

I haven't had anyone flash me yet thinking I have the high beams on by mistake.

It is just a brighter bulb technology and it draws alot less power.

The cops will real busy with the new GMC truck OE lights then. they are the worsti have seen in my driving. also Cadillac tail lights.

Cadillac tail lights are the worst. Insanely bright rows of led's

Thanks @wngrog. My head lights were pretty dim last night so I just ordered a set of each.

Found some electrical gremlins in the piggy headlights. Making the LED leap. Good info in this thread.

LED Headlights for FJ40 and Early Mini-Truck

Some talk of these in my thread so I thought I would document them here

 

[wngrog]

My plug and play Amazon bulbs in the 100 are unreal. Likely way too brite actually. I get flashed a lot.

The 60 has these bulbs too in Roundeye housings and they too are stupid bright. Not very focused like the ones Racer65 is selling.

Gots me some Starks for the 4Runner

High beams were 30 seconds a side but the lows took some grinding to get them into the projectors.

White light is the best.

One side done

Both sides

Here's the grind

I've been wanting to put them in the GX but didn't think they'd work well in projectors. What's your assessment?

 

[Bomar]

I have them in LX projectors and they rock.

Best $$$$ you can spend on lighting.

I am sure someone will go all $1500 on retrofit this and that. For $90 my s*** is bright and way more useful.

 

[wngrog]

Same awesome cut pattern of light on low as before but white and bright.

High beams are insane.

These arrived today.

That is a my engineers scale laying across the top. They measure right at 9" in diameter. Plan is to make a set of mounts to get them on the front of the mid-tube on the ARB.

 

[jynx]

Erin said they were obnoxious, but she liked them. I had to see how they looked, I will get a better picture in the daylight.

They sit dead on top of the center tube. Thinking I can trim a section out of the tube and drop in a piece of plate with some nuts welded to the underside to mount them to, or something like that.

 

[jynx]

Better picture in the daylight.

Anyone got source for weatherpack connectors? I found some kits on Amazon, but was curious if any of you guys have other places you have had good luck with.

Thanks

Just wondering if all of you guys are still loving the stark led for headlights? Just ordered some. They have some "2.0" ones now. I had the trucklites in my 4Runner so going to stock 80 series headlights kind of sucked
