that sucks you guys had problems with the shipping, they never even hesitated to ship them to me. but it sounds like if you can talk them into it they might ship em, its worth a shot.

Definitely interested in these headlights, seen I'm missing one. I'll try contacting them too.

I got my headlights installed with 35 Watt HID's and what a difference. Really nice lights, no one has flashed me and people who I have talked to say they do not bother them when I go by. I am considering 55 watts next. The high beam pattern is a little strange though. This could be because these headlight are for RHD rigs and not LHD ers.
Dont know and dont really care. I really like them!
And no I do not have pics, and yes it really happened

Hmmm.... I made some clear headlights for a few other vehicles.... I could make some lenses for the 2nd gen if there was enough interest.

I hate to bump such an old thread, but I've been spending a few days trying to find an upgrade option for the headlight assembly on my 1994 4runner.

I tried searching over and over and this is the only thread that seems to deal with the odd shape of our headlights.

Just wondering if anyone has found anything?

I have a 94 4Runner also and the first thing I'm going to do is either build a headlight harness with parts from here or have him build one. I still have lots to do to my truck so one less thing to do....who knows, I'll probably build it. I like to overkill stuff. I bought cheap 4 gauge battery cables from NAPA and made them mine...I soldered and tinned the ends so the cheap lugs that are pressed on overseas are made one with the cable. You drill a hole into lug, heat the lug with a propane/map gas torch and solder will suck right into the hole and tin the cable/lug together. The red 4 gauge cable is for the starter and I made black ones for the extra grounds. The main cables will be 2 AWG gauge I had left over...going with a GM 170 amp alternator. Sorry for the wicked tangent I went on.....

My point is this...make a headlight harness with at least 14 gauge wire, 12 is better and I'm using 10 because it's laying around and free. Relay the headlights with quality relays and upgrade the "Big Three." Do a search and you'll see what I mean if you don't know. Get some quality headlight bulbs (not the blue tinted ones) and see what you think first before going to other options. I was also going to order the European Hilux headlights but now that we can't...have to stick with modifying my electrical connections in the truck and see what that does. Hope this helps. At one point I plan on starting a build thread, so I will post pics of everything.
