    Most popular aftermarket seem to be the Spyders ...


    And they worked fine, but I have since moved on to my retros ...


    And love these so much more. Better and stronger beam pattern and just look better in terms of quality.

    What options did you go with for your retrofits and how much were they if you don't mind be asking. Also are those mirrors from Toyota or aftermarket?

    I bought Spyders for around $250 because I liked the look and they were inexpensive. Since, I've come to realize they aren't as cool as specific retros I want and the Spyder output isn't any better than stock

    I went with retrofits.

    Since I have an extra set of headlights laying around, I may just end up trying to do a retro job myself... who knows?

    Bang for the buck = Spyders with Hikari LED bulbs.

    I can't tell much of a difference between this and the retros I had.

    If you want a specific look for your headlights, custom retros is the way to go.

    Some stuff
    Been digging around on this idea and came across his website earlier this afternoon. Seriously considering this as I'm not super happy with the output on the Recons. Are you in Atlanta or did you send him your stock headlights?
