Where can I find these headlights?
Does anybody know where I can get these headlights and how how much they run? I've asked several performance shops, but they had no idea about Toyota trucks
I'm planning on getting those light's and the whole front end clear, how do you guys think it would look on my black truck?
And
is greatly appreciatedThanks

Check Hella's website. Those look like their vision plus headlights. I have the older version of those from my 92 Toy PU. They have the little reflective lines through them,(they are not completley clear as the ones you have pictured) but they do allow you to change the bulbs in the back. They're yours for $25 plus shipping if you want them.

Do you have any pics of your old headlights that you're selling?

OMG lethal, those look sweet!
JasonB, how much are the ones you have, are they the blue HID type lights or basically the same light output as stock, but easier to change out bulbs?

The nice thing about my APC housings is that they are lexan. The are pretty much bullet proof. Here in Pr. George, British Columbia, our winters are semi harsh and the gravel they use to sand the streets and highways with is about the size of marbles.
I go through about to windshields a year and used to go through twice as many headlights but not one since the APC swap.
As for the clear bumper signals, I really like mine and think it gives the front of the truck a very clean and custom look. I have gone the illegal way and used blue Xenon bulbs but they match the truck and it looks sweet at night comps when I have my LED's and hazards flashing at the same time.

I never even thought about the gravel. My windshield is really pitted from the stuff they lay down around here. Is that a problem with the glass headlights then? I will have to check out those APC's, what all do the APC's come with, like what would I have to buy in addition? Also, do you have part numbers for them, or are they standard?

Does anyone have a part number for the APC housings? I was looking online at CSK Auto but I can't search the headlights without putting in vehicle information. And my vehicle info only pulls up the sealed beams.

Plastic seems to get much more pitted. After the years go buy then can tend to look hazier than glass ever would.
Personally I like glass. The 96-2002 stock 4runner heads are glass from the factory. My friends civic has plastic heads and they don't look as nice and have fine dot marks all over.

you can buy a "gel like" clear, thick, vinyl adhesive to go over the outside of the lens to protect against pitting, however after 3+ years on my truck without the "gel" they still look like new and have no pits, scrapes or scratches.
The housings are complete and the only thing you need to do is "fill them" with your H4 bulb of choice.
I run the PIAA Super Plasma GT-X. They give off a purplish/blue glow at low beam but the Extreme White at high beam. I don't know how I ever drove at night before without them.
