    Buying black housing headlights for Toyota Tundras has been a struggle. Did we find a quality set of aftermarket headlights for my Toyota Tundra on Amazon??

    Pro tip - Buy yourself a can of “Plexus” - it’s an aerosol spray for cleaning and treating plastics, developed to keep fighter jet canopies in to optical condition. Headlights won’t yellow if you use it to clean off the lenses once a month

    Hey man, love your content. I was SUPER close to buying a 13 Tacoma with 67k miles on it… I somehow stumbled on your video explaining why the tundra was the better truck for you. I agreed whole heartedly with your logic and set out to find one. Just found a one owner 06 DC gray example for a great deal at a Toyota dealer. Can’t wait to follow you on your journey and learn from you in the process!!

    Awesome video brother, I appreciate the time you took on the detailed install and review of these aftermarket headlights looks promising. I was considering also replacing my Tundra headlights they actually look worse than yours. You just gained a new subscriber with this awesome video. Hope you and yours are well and taking care, I’m looking forward to scrolling through your Tundra videos and watching more awesome content.

    Hey bud, nice video. I’m a new subscriber and have been tuning in to your channel. My father bought me an 01 extended cab with the 4.7 a few years ago for a birthday gift as I was in need of a new work truck. This thing sees about 800 miles a week and is all over back country roads and long stretches of highway. It has decent ground clearance in stock form and is so smooth on the highway. Never let me down once. I just did the new timing belt and water pump as it was already due with 220,000 miles. Unfortunately Yita doesn’t make headlights for 01 Tundra so I’ve been looking on Amazon but would like to stay away from the brand you bought the first time around. Any advice? I did add led bulbs and its so much brighter but the oxidation on the old headlights sorta throws a messy beam. Keep up the great vids!!!

    • @Garagetopics
      @Garagetopics  Před rokem

      Thanks a lot!! The First pair had no name and I cannot find the link of those. I'd pay attention to how much chrome is in the headlight area. The yita good set I have is only black in the areas that are not the reflector area, which is what you want. Hope this helps!!

    The white clip doesn't come loose or have an obvious release mechanism. Any advice?

    Love your videos! Keep it up. However, I just bought these headlights after watching your video but my adjusters won’t bring the beam down no matter how much I turn the knob. Now I’m blinding everyone when I drive. Did I get a defect? Was yours difficult to bring the beam down?

    That's headlight clear coat failure. Unfortunately those headlights had a really cheap clear coat that fails very fast. The UV rays damage them.
    The turn signals are made of a different plastic and that's why it didn't yellow. The turn signals are the same Plastic as the taillights which almost never go bad. They don't have a clear coat.
