I did the clear corners and bumper lenses. I also put the silver bulbs in that turn amber when lit. I think it looks "cleaner" that way with no orange blur behind it during the day. The box the lenses came in did say for show only, but I think that is just because the company didn't go through the hassle of making them DOT approved.

 

Are these ebay cheapies far inferior to the Burtman ones? I think I had some cheapies on my old Accord and they seemed fine. $75 for a pair seems like a lot.

 

Mine from ebay are the same quality as the stockers I pulled off of the runner.

 

Yep, looks great. This is one of the 1st mods I did to my own truck.

 

Jason, you don't of any manufacturer who sells clear turn signal lenses for the TMJ do you?

 

If you want to save yourself some money, here's a tip. I've been spraying my factory amber bulbs with silver spray paint and it works great! I found this tip out about 10 years ago and it really does work.

 

i got a set of amber leds with resistors for $25 bucks off ebay for my bumper lights there awesome plenty bright and no crappy orange glow

 

heres a pic at night im not really good with a camera but you get the idea and yes i modified the bumper lights to light up with the corners

 

They aren't made unfortunately.

 

Here's a couple shots of my Corners

Clear corners with stock headlights>>


Black corners with 99+ headlights>>

 

Where did the "black" corners come from, those look nice.

 

not trying to hijack a thread, but anyone have a source for clear corners, tails, or sidemarkers etc. for first gen? I am getting an 89, and I want all clear all around, except tails, I want red and clear no yellow or orange. Help?

 

I love the look...especially with black.

welcome to yotatech here you go also can get the coners and bumper lights there to http://www.matrixracing.com/p-3075-8...ts-chrome.aspx

 

Thanks!!

 

Whats wrong with clear corners? I think it cleans up the look of the front end, gets rid of the hideous amber lens.

 

clear corners are the way to go, i have jdm clear corners on mine, and in the states as long as you dont have a blue or red bulb in them then it should be legal, when i lived in the states i put clear corners on my pickup and never got pulled over for it, and i traveled through other states like crazy...

 

Thanks for the link. So is it pretty safe to say that lights listed for toyota trucks for those years will fit the 4runners?

Also-in case anyone was considering doing the cheap mod of spraypainting their amber bulbs silver, I can tell you that it worked well on my BMW, but doesn't look as good as clear LEDs that light up in amber. Spend the money, and you will be glad you did.

 

I can get you the corners and bumpers Just shoot an email or give me a call from the # on the site.

 

I have clear corners, but I use the 5-LED amber bulbs, they appear clear when off..... no resistor needed.,
