Update! So we have had these Amazon Headlight bulbs in our GX470 for almost a year! They are still running strong and super bright especially in the forest! We have been spending a lot of time camping these last few months and these bulbs really shine in the woods. However we have noticed that one of the fans on the bulb seems to be louder than normal some times. We can’t say for certain if its a sign of a pending fan failure or if its just louder to us. If it fails we will definitely post an update! Thanks for watching and subscribing!
I really appreciate this video and the update! I was just about to go to a local shop to inquiry about light options. You guys keep booking us up with the data. Much appreciate it!!!!
Thank you for this video, amazing difference in light output. Passenger side took less than 5 minutes, driver side you can do with the battery in but it makes it easier to secure the driver if you take it out. Also did an led light interior conversion which was equally amazing, cost all of $11 from amazon. Everyone do yourself a favor and buy a kit with the removal tool and a bunch of those extra plastic bits to secure all the guards under the engine bay. If you do your own maintenance they save you all kind of frustration when removing them and when you inevitably drop one or it wears out you have extras. 300 piece kit with tool cost me $12. Interior trim removal kit is also extremely useful cost $5, made the led interior kit a 15 minute install at most. Keep making videos GX for life!!!!!!
Thanks for the Video. I just ordered two sets. One for my 04 Gx470 and one for my GMC Terrain. Like the rims on your GX. I just purchased 4 brand new ones off a 2020 4 runner with 265/70/17 Michelins on them. They look great. And got em for a steal. 450 for the set of 4. Sold my bubbled up old ones for 100 . So 4 brand new rims and tires for a net price of 350. Couldnt go wrong. I also did the Rear spring conversion last weekend. Followed your video to a T. Great stuff.
Glad I could help, our bulbs are still going strong but one of them is starting to make a noise from the fan motor. Going to see if the seller will warranty it. It still works fine tho.
Welp. Just installed these in my NEWLY PURCHASED 2005 GX 470! You're right. So easy to install. Thanks for your reviews of the vehicle. You were a major reason I pulled the trigger and got it!
I think your videos are fantastic. I'm picking up an 05 470 this weekend in Atlanta and will definitely be doing some of the modifications you've shown here. Thank you sir. And ma'am behind the camera. Easiest sub of my life. ...giggity.
Made a huge improvement for us but, its been almost a year now and one of the cooling fans on one bulb is making howling sounds. It’s probably going to fail soon.
Awesome video man. Just finished getting a layer of yellow crud off of my headlights, and this just inspired me to switch to LED. New lights coming in tomorrow!
The LED technology has gotten so much better over the years. I would suggest finding some that are passive cooling if possible and the best color and cut off you can find other than that even the cheap $20.00 LED bulbs make a huge difference. Thanks for watching commenting and subscribing!
Just bought the low beam and high beam versions of this exact replacement bulb because of your video. Thanks so much for your video! I'll be installing them this weekend.
Jeff Chiodo awesome I hope you enjoy them mine are still working great. We only got the low beam but the difference was huge especially when we drive up to the mountains!
Thanks a bunch for the tips and suggestion for these headlights. Easy install and love the look. Gives my 11 yo GX an updated look. Update (2 days after purchase 12/07/2020 ) . The price went up from $25.41 to 39.99. Wow. Such a big price jump. I wonder if they had priced it incorrectly when i had purchased it.
I just put the same LEDs in my 2010 Prius. Passenger side is a pain, but my wife did that side. I sure hope I get the 50,000 hours out of them. No issues with compatibility. Just the polarity wasn't what I thought. No harm done, though. Significant improvement!
Ron Clauson awesome we haven’t had any issues so far. Hopefully we never do these bulbs made a massive difference for us driving at night and in rainy dark conditions!
Thanks...just bought these for my 03 GX470 based on this video. Question, I replaced the drivers side turn signal, but after 3 hours I still can’t get the socket back in the housing. Any suggestions?
They're called the TRD SEMA wheel. OEM on the 4runner. Amazon or the dealer is you best bet. Watch out there are a lot of knockoffs and copies out there, especially ebay.
Here I am sitting on my couch screaming "THE OTHER COUNTER CLOCKWISE!!!" at my laptop screen. Glad you worked that out. The low beams on the recently purchase 07 barely qualify as DRLs. I see the color temperature is 6500k, isn't that annoyingly white?
I watch this two years and 10k miles ago when I bought my GX470 and ordered the same set from Amazon. One bulb is flashing and Amazon no longer sells the product. upset, I did more research and learned not to do this. I just ordered some tried and trie S-V4's to put an end to the problem. nothing will cost more than being cheap
Quick question- you referenced the low beam & high beam bulb numbers. Does this kit have both or did you just replace the low beam? Do I need to order a different bulb for the high beam as well?
Hi, Great video. I installed the Fahren 9005 LED Bulbs on my 2005 GX470 back in August 2020. But shortly there after, in November 2020 the passenger side bulb began to flicker and eventually failed all together. I contacted seller and of course they had me troubleshoot via different methods, which I did. Bulb was dead. They sent a replacement shortly thereafter. Im now, as of December 2020 having problems with driver side bulb. This time the bulb just flickers. I swapped to passenger, but problem followed bulb. I contacted seller once again. They recommended Canbus decoder. I ordered decoder they suggested, installed them on both lights and nothing. Neither one of the LED Bulbs worked with decoders. Long story short, have you or any of your followers had any issues with these LED bulbs failing after a short time ? Thanx
Hey sorry to hear you are having issues with yours. Idk if you saw the pinned comment I just wrote the other day but ours are still going strong. Maybe the seller could send you two new bulbs. Just full disclosure we aren’t affiliated with the seller and payed out of pocket for the bulbs. They just happened to have they best reviews on Amazon and have been working pretty darn good for us. I hope you can get your issue resolved tho! That would be terrible customer service if they didn’t take care of you!
Manufacturer is sending replacement LED bulbs. Just know, although there is 100% manufacturers warranty, Amazon does not allow free shipments. I ordered replacement for $0.44 Great customer service although a bit disappointed about failure
Hey brother..any chance you have upgraded the old orangey high beams with something that matches the white tone of the fahrens? Let me know..I would like to do it because the clash of the 2 tones is bothering me.. thanks
how is your headlights working? I have heard people having problems with their batteries draining after the led install Very good informational video on the GX 470, you've added me as a subscriber.
These lights have been great. It's been almost 2 years since we installed them so they have been properly tested at this point lol. Thank you for watching.
Where in Atlanta did you find your wheels? Looking for similar. Definitely look forward to more maintenance videos on this vehicle. Also, your German accent is spot on.
I have an 04 GX470 ... replaced daytime running lights with LED and get hyperflash for a few seconds then slows to normal speed ... can we put in a LED compatible flasher relay so we don't have to wire in a resister??? Where is the flasher relay located? Thank you
I would definitely change the wheels tires and remove the air suspension. After that you can make the truck as mild or wild as you like. You can remove the running boards, cut the front bumper or change it for something else. Do a lift it all depends on your taste and needs. I’m thinking about doing that Tesla like screen next.
Thats a tough one I wouldn't get the 460 just because of aesthetics that LX570 tho is a so dope. If I needed to so some serious hard core off roading maybe I would consider the LX plus the added space but the GX 470 handles all the terrain we drive on with no problems and it fits in our garage easy with a 4 bike rack so I would still have the GX our a GX and LX!!! but not the 460 lol
Double side tape work better instead of zip ties. LOL Looking forward to more videos. You have to check out the android head unit for them. They look amazing
driojal yeah the zip ties came with the kit so I just used those. I guess you could use super strong double sided heat resistant tape for the driver if you clean the mating surface real good, but then if you needed to remove the bulb that would be a bit of a problem. Thanks for commenting!
driojal I do want to get that android head unit tho! It looks super cool and would be a massive upgrade for our outdated head unit. I must say tho, the stock head unit does sound fairly decent for what it is.
So the plastic tabs are actually easier than the mercedez. In order to remove you press the middle plastic in and the clip will be presented out easily.
Looking to grab some led bulbs for my GX470 and I am curious how those bulbs are working for you now that’s it’s been awhile. Are you still happy? Any issues blinding other drivers? Thanks
Hello thanks for commenting. So far they have been great. The cut off is pretty crisp and the color and distance the beam reaches is a vast improvement over our stock bulbs. I haven't seen anyone flashing their lights at me for blinding them but once again I think the cut off is darn good. The only thing I have noticed since my truck is kept in a small garage now. If you have the lights on and the truck is off, and it is silent... and you are standing near the front of the truck ,you can hear the fans running but it is barely audible. Other than that no complaints!
Just received LED light bulbs today. Will be installing tomorrow morning. Hopefully I wont get any flickering or error message. Will keep you posted. Thank you for your videos. I love my GX470
Installed lamps today. Unforetunately my headlight housings are very dull and faded. Nonetheless, I used double sided tape to mount LED driver on inner fender well. Lamps work great. No flickering, no error codes. Will order another set for high beams, but may have to replace housings first. Any aftermarket brands you recommend ? OEM are almost $600/each.
@@KRTLyfe Thanx again, purchased Fahren LED's for both high and low beams. They look great. Now the fog lights look off with the ugly yellowish color halogen bulbs provide. The bulb on the Fog lights is an H3. Any recommendation for LED replacements for H3 reflector ? Thanx again for info on Fahren LED's
@@KRTLyfe I just took my first drive after upgraded in our GX just like y'alls :) I do like the cooler tone but realistically don't think it increased the range that much but feel they could use to be adjusted angled up if possible?
You might need to adjust your headlight assembly. We had a massive improvement on ours. The cut off is very crisp, the distance that the light penetrates was increased by about a car length. The reflection off signs and other objects has also improved. And the color of the light is less fatiguing when driving long distances at night. The only down side I can think off is you can hear the fans running when you turn the car off and the lights stay on for that -30 seconds but it isn’t loud or anything it’s just a gentle hum in our garage. So far we are really happy with these bulbs.
Oh and make sure the bulb is oriented properly. If the build isn’t straight up and down making a (90 degree angle with the ground) the pattern and projection of the light will be degraded.
Please don’t get these lights they are VERY hit or miss and I got two sets. First set, one stopped working after 2 months, second set got very dim after about 8 months. :( only want to help the people
WOW, sorry to hear that! These companies make micro revisions to products to improve profits, sometimes resulting in the product failing prematurely. Our personal experience was very different ours worked the entire time we owned our GX. The set I got next for our Land Cruiser 100 series was the cheapest on Amazon passive cooling. They are still running strong as well. I put them in my low beam and fog lights. Maybe we are just getting lucky IDK. Sorry to hear yours failed and FYI we are not sponsored by any of the companies we review, so please feel free to tell your story here. If these bulbs are failing we definitely want people to know! Thank you and best of luck finding better bulbs for your ride!
Update! So we have had these Amazon Headlight bulbs in our GX470 for almost a year! They are still running strong and super bright especially in the forest!
We have been spending a lot of time camping these last few months and these bulbs really shine in the woods. However we have noticed that one of the fans on the bulb seems to be louder than normal some times.

@@KRTLyfe wondering if a little compressed air would help to blow out any dust. Maybe a tad of lube behind fan blades. Just a thought
I did not know these exist! Thanks for the share, gonna upgrade ASAP.
LED bulbs make a huge difference. There are a lot of videos comparing different LEDs you can go way down that rabbit hole.
Welp. Just installed these in my NEWLY PURCHASED 2005 GX 470! You're right. So easy to install. Thanks for your reviews of the vehicle. You were a major reason I pulled the trigger and got it!

@@KRTLyfe I put in for the warranty and got an email confirmation back that said I have 2 years of warranty. So maybe they'll warranty yours out!
Just changed my 07 to these exact LED lights, thanks was super easy!
Nice work!
How have they held up?
Awesome video man. Just finished getting a layer of yellow crud off of my headlights, and this just inspired me to switch to LED. New lights coming in tomorrow!

To help with your lighting even more replace your head light lamp housing, they are very yellow, or try to restore them. Could be another video 🙂
The Sylvania restoration kit works really good. I used it on my 07 GX.
this was a super solid little tutorial. much appreciated!
You didn't change the high beams? If you did, can you link the bulb you used?
I never got around to changing the high beams.
So, you replaced the LO beam bulb with the LEDs, why didn't you do your HI beam & fog lights as well?
I was in a rush to get on the road when we filmed this.
Is there LED lights for the fog lights on the gx?
I believe that there are, I would check on amazon. We have had very good results with amazon lights.
Great straight forward video. Have you done the tail lights?
NO the vehicle was totaled out smh.
Off topic... can you name the tires and rims you have on your tricked out ride? Thanks
The rims we had were OEM TRD wheels and the tires are BFG KO2. hope that helps.
Just bought the low beam and high beam versions of this exact replacement bulb because of your video. Thanks so much for your video! I'll be installing them this weekend.
Jeff Chiodo awesome I hope you enjoy them mine are still working great. We only got the low beam but the difference was huge especially when we drive up to the mountains!
@@KRTLyfe Did you have to adjust them at all? I don't want to blind any oncoming traffic.
Jeff Chiodo I didn’t have to adjust mine.
Thanks a bunch for the tips and suggestion for these headlights. Easy install and love the look. Gives my 11 yo GX an updated look.
Update (2 days after purchase 12/07/2020 ) . The price went up from $25.41 to 39.99. Wow. Such a big price jump. I wonder if they had priced it incorrectly when i had purchased it.
IDK that is the only problem with these amazon links. The prices are always subject to change.
hey are you running stock suspension beside the airbag delete ?
Yep. the suspension was stock minus the air bag delete.
is amajon a subsidiary of amazon ?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙌🏾🔥🤷🏾♂️

Great video, thank you. The wheels are especially awesome, do the wheels fit the OEM tires and do not need spacers?
No you don’t need spacers and I do believe you could run the OEM tire size if you wanted to. Thanks for watching commenting and subscribing!
Great video. I forgot what counter clockwise when I installed mine too😂😂 old bulbs were toast so really looking forward to running these. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
What do you recommend for the fog lights? Now that the headlights look great.
I am not sure at the moment. I follow a guy on IG GXPLOR he has a really cool setup.
Thanks...just bought these for my 03 GX470 based on this video. Question, I replaced the drivers side turn signal, but after 3 hours I still can’t get the socket back in the housing. Any suggestions?
You have to make sure the prongs line up with the spot they plug into the headlight assembly. Then turn clockwise.
Hey man, which TRD’s are those? I love them. I have the white gx and wonder how it would look with those!
They're called the TRD SEMA wheel. OEM on the 4runner. Amazon or the dealer is you best bet. Watch out there are a lot of knockoffs and copies out there, especially ebay.
I think they look great of any color GX. Thank you for watching.

I just replaced the Low beam in this video. The kit only came with the low beam bulbs. The high beam bulb is different.
Which ones do you recommend for the fog lights? That will match the headlights in brightness
Still debating that. There are so many options. When I get it figured out it will be a vlog.
Any suggestions for fog light replacement?
That will be our next mod looking at options now. Stay tuned.
Did you have to adjust the beams lower?
No, nothing had to be adjusted. It was literally plug and play - no adjustments needed in our case. Thank you for watching!

I haven’t updated the high beams yet but when I do I will post a video.
how is your headlights working? I have heard people having problems with their batteries draining after the led install
Very good informational video on the GX 470, you've added me as a subscriber.

Hey Steve I am not really sure I haven’t gotten around to that yet. When I do I will definitely make a DIY!
Love the GX vids! I'm getting mine in 5 months from my dad, got any tips?
I would definitely change the wheels tires and remove the air suspension. After that you can make the truck as mild or wild as you like. You can remove the running boards, cut the front bumper or change it for something else. Do a lift it all depends on your taste and needs. I’m thinking about doing that Tesla like screen next.
To add to this make sure timing belt is within spec and you dont need to change it. That's $1000+ job.
Good morning. Like the gx470. If you had a choice between them all(gx 470/460 and lx570), would you stick with the same vehicle?
Thats a tough one I wouldn't get the 460 just because of aesthetics that LX570 tho is a so dope. If I needed to so some serious hard core off roading maybe I would consider the LX plus the added space but the GX 470 handles all the terrain we drive on with no problems and it fits in our garage easy with a 4 bike rack so I would still have the GX our a GX and LX!!! but not the 460 lol

Double side tape work better instead of zip ties. LOL
Looking forward to more videos. You have to check out the android head unit for them. They look amazing
driojal yeah the zip ties came with the kit so I just used those. I guess you could use super strong double sided heat resistant tape for the driver if you clean the mating surface real good, but then if you needed to remove the bulb that would be a bit of a problem.

Do people flash their high bemas at you now? I am not a fan of Alien abduction bright lights, very rude.
No, as long as you install the bulb properly you should be good.
High Beam bulbs are 9005 not 9006
Need to brush on your terminology,other than that love the work you put in.
Yeah I could edit and do multiple takes but I like my videos to be real and relatable.

Please don’t get these lights they are VERY hit or miss and I got two sets. First set, one stopped working after 2 months, second set got very dim after about 8 months. :( only want to help the people
WOW, sorry to hear that! These companies make micro revisions to products to improve profits, sometimes resulting in the product failing prematurely. Our personal experience was very different ours worked the entire time we owned our GX. The set I got next for our Land Cruiser 100 series was the cheapest on Amazon passive cooling. They are still running strong as well. I put them in my low beam and fog lights. Maybe we are just getting lucky IDK. Sorry to hear yours failed and FYI we are not sponsored by any of the companies we review, so please feel free to tell your story here. If these bulbs are failing we definitely want people to know! Thank you and best of luck finding better bulbs for your ride!
LED light spectrum destroys the retina of our eyes. People who drive with that technology are going blind. Constantly driving with their highs on.
I broke all the tabs
