  • @lespaulguitarist92
    @lespaulguitarist92 5 років тому +2

    the problem with these aftermarket headlights is condensation building up after a carwash or rainy days.. and it stays wet forever! I would go on ebay and look for a used 2011 oem tacoma headlight instead.

    • @CARSONBOARD
      @CARSONBOARD  5 років тому +2

      The biggest reason for condensation in the head lights is having bad or no inner fenders.

    Exterior mods looking good man, I'm luvin the uploads man keep it up 👍 btw would you ever consider taking off the TRD sticker on the rear fender? Imo it would look super clean and different since it's a very common theme with Tacoma's (sorry if it's not a tacoma) any who much love from Washinton St💚💚🙏

    • @CARSONBOARD

    Before, I was wanting the Spider lights, but seem these black housing oem style and I got these instead. Very nice. Not trying to be too futuristic that it makes it look like a ricer chevy truck, but just right with a black housing headlight to match my truck. It's black too

    I have a black Tacoma and have bene thinking about getting these headlights but just wondering how they hold up over time. I've been looking at the led options but I don't want to spend that much money in comparison to the price of these on eBay. Are they worth it? I'm also from Canada so that impacts the price somewhat...

    • @CARSONBOARD
      @CARSONBOARD  2 роки тому

      They lasted about two years now they get condensation water inside. I'll save up and buy LED type from a good company like AlphaRex its worth the money in the long run.

    Hey bro I have an 07 Tacoma sport looks just like yours. My grill is color matched black but doesn't have the honeycomb design like yours does. Where did you buy that grill? Did you have to paint it black? I found a few but they're all the gunmetal color. I love that grill of yours

    Great video man, looking to do the same to my tacoma.
    I was about to get new headlights but I was worried about them not being bright and I don’t want to spend too much money on them so I was leaning towards sticking with my old ones but it seems like in this video you said you just switched out the bulbs? Is that correct?
    And how have they been holding up?
    Have you noticed any difference in the quality of them since you made the switch?

    • @CARSONBOARD

      They are holding up great so far. I light out put is alot better.

    • @CARSONBOARD
      @CARSONBOARD  4 роки тому +1

      It took about 1 year before I got condensation in 1 head light. But my truck stays in the garage over night. Make sure your headlight bulb connector gaskets are good and tight on the back of headlight.
