They are the same thing, the only difference about Burtman is that it's a lot more expensive! But I still buy from Burtman, it's hard to trust ebay sometimes...

You'd have to mask off part of the head light to make it black and then you'd risk causing a leak in the housing by having to take it apart. I remember helping my friends with their TL and corolla. Not too hard but the headlight isn't clean once you're done. All the glue and sealant to reseal doesn't look very clean after the reassembly.

I guess if you're obsessed with the look it doesn't seem worth the cash outlay or the work involved and possibly compromising the lamps function.

I'm just happy I have the '99 lamps and the corners were the cheap mod.

From what I've read the main issue with these lights seems to be the beam pattern, care to share a picture illustrating theirs? Wall shine shot would be great

Would be interested in seeing this too. I am contemplating getting these headlights. They should look pretty sharp on the black 4runner.

Also Jason, do you have any pics from further away? Or installed on a truck without a brush guard.

TIA.

Don't think I have any other pics, but I've had many happy customers with these lights. There are 6-7 difference places making these and some are junk. I know which are good, and have had good luck with these.
