Default Prado LED's just came in from Singapore...

Look what the mail man just delivered...Scroll Down for Pics!!!!!




My wife has the car today so I will try to get these installed tonight and post some pics later.

They are the one's from eBay and the quality looks really good! They are made by Eagle Eyes, a company that I am very familliar with from my BMW modding days. They make some lights very well-and onthers not so well. Time will tell, but so far they look great!

More to come...

Do they make these in the clear lens i.e. all white but still glows red when you step on the brakes?

These are another CL member's- talimon (I hope you don't mind me stealing your pic). You will have to ask him where he got them.

Close but not quite. I'd like them to look white with no hint of red unless your stepping on the brakes.

The RX330 comes in them stock so I'm sure their out there.

I finally put them on and am very happy with how they look. I did not have my camera with me so please excuse the low-res phone cam pics.

I replaced the turn signal bulbs with Philips SilverVision to get rid of the orange reflection. And I have still not decided if I am going to put two more in the bottom sections to make those turn signals too-or if I am going to wire them to the reverse lights as they are intended.

Driver's Side Lights on:


Both Lights on(No Brakes):


Both with Brakes:


Both w/Brakes and Left Turn Signal:

Looks great Chad!
Would you say the LED's are as bright as factory LED's on other vehicles?

Thanks Dan.

Yes. It's hard to tell from these pics but they are very similar in brightness to the LEDs you you would see on the 4Runner. They are a little smaller, but nice and bright!

Chad
