Props to you man! Nothing beats a proper HID projector retrofit... I still think it's one of the best mods I've done to my rig

Looks gr8, I'm getting ready to do a retrofit on mine too. For others on here wanting to do one too, there is currently a GroupBuy for 25% off the kits on RetrofitSource. Here's the code to use when checking-out: "R3TacomaWorld25"

Not sure how much longer the code will be active though so anyone wanting to get in on it needs to act fast.
