I did search... I can't find such bulbs locally in Canada.
The link you've posted - they do not ship in Canada.

 

alex,

check major vendors like Summit, Jeg's, etc, they do ship to canada. call 800-230-3030, it's Summit Racing, i do believe they can get the Hella 35W bulbs to you.

Question
What is your policy on international or foreign shipping?

Answer
Foreign customer status is applied to anyone outside the U.S., Canada, or U.S. Territories. Since our toll-free phone number does not apply to foreign countries, you can place your orders online, fax them to us at (330) 630-5333, or call us directly at 330-630-0230. If we have your e-mail address on file, an order confirmation will be sent to you via e-mail after the order is placed. All foreign orders ship from our Ohio location only. Product availability is determined by the inventory in the Ohio location. Foreign, or international, shipments are assessed a $23.95 handling fee per order regardless of size unless the order has a domestic shipping destination; in which case the handling fee will be $10.95. All orders must be pre-paid and actual shipping rates will be charged. Depending upon your location and size of the order, different shipping methods are available. Ask your salesperson for available options or fax us a shipping quote request with all your parts and shipping address for an estimate. Foreign customers should also be aware that if several items are ordered and one is on backorder, the whole order will be placed on a "Full Order Hold" until the backordered item arrives. We do this in order to save the customer two separate shipping charges. If you wish to have the available items shipped and are willing to pay the separate charges, simply specify at the time you place your order and we can accommodate your request. Hazardous materials cannot be shipped to foreign customers at this time. All items entering a foreign country are subject to customs inspection and the assessment of duties and taxes in accordance with that country's national laws. Customs duties and taxes are assessed, generally, if the merchandise is dutiable and the value of the item is above the threshold set by the country's laws. These charges are normally due at the time of delivery, they are separate from the actual shipping charges processed by Summit Racing. Invoice must reflect actual product prices for parts shipped.

 

here u go http://www.rallylights.com/hella/H3.asp shipping could be a problem though

 

Thank you guys.
I checked, both Summit and Rallylights can ship to Canada.
I looked at Summit before, but didn't see the bulb. Thanks for posing it up.

BTW, does anyone know if I can change H3 bulb to LED version. I found only one H3 LED bulb here: Auotlumination. Do you know other places? Is it a good idea of doing LED for back-up light?

 

I've run both a 30-LED 1156 backup bulb and a 3watt Luxeon backup bulb and both work OK. I actually like the 30 LED narrow beam bulbs I have in my '85. The really focus a narrow beam of light to the back and I find they give more usable light than a conventional 1156 bulb. Mostly because the stock reflector is so poorly designed in the 1st gen 4Runners. I find the 3W Luxeon bulbs are not quite as bright as an incandescent bulb, but they are pretty close. A new 5 watt Luxeon bulb is supposed to be out, not sure if they have one in white yet.
