    Austin, the Ford guy from South Africa again.
    This Hi-lux is turning out brilliantly. The moment I saw the old buckets and bezels, I said to my wife you WILL paint them. Great stuff! The LED's are great

    Fun video. Something to keep in mind, when using LED head lights on these older Toyotas - at least on my 1990 pickup, the wiring for the hi/low beams includes some funky stuff relative to the high beam indicator light on the gauge cluster. How Toyota set it up involves current flowing through the blue dash indicator light, but then when the low beams are on, there is a better path and the indicator light goes off - but it's still a closed electrical pathway, if you are using an incandescent bulb in your dash there. I'm not sure if your truck is wired up differently than the 89-95 years, but I ran into this same issue when switching to LED's. I ended up removing that bulb all together, in order to prevent having an electrical pathway back to ground (no matter how tiny). Just wanted to mention it, in case that ever crops up and gives you problems.
    Great info on the powder coating, by the way!

    I've got the Holley retrobrite's in my '75 Hilux (all 4) and they work great! Try those... Fitment was great and they don't look like "tuner boi" headlights. Love your channel!

      I was going to recommend these too. Going to do two sets in my 67 Buick, putting ambers in the high beam locations. IIRC, they are made by Morimoto, I have had good luck with their LEDs on other projects. Glad the first set didn't fit, not a fan of those, set #2 is better. Still not my taste but better.

    You need a double wall oven for powder coating! Cannot wait to see it done. Also editing was awesome on this one dude...the mix of music and "background/tool noise" was spot on.

    I think you should install those two horns...
    The reason it is two because the other one is high tone and the other is low. Then if you use your horn, it will sound good at the same time.
