I have read a lot on LED Bulbs in OEM and HID Housing on the Web and all I can determine is the the LED Bulbs are not designed to work in these housings and will cause an excessive amount of GLARE !

Believe me when I say I took months reading and rereading, watching videos after video and came to one conclusion, the best bulbs cost around $150.00 (give or take$$$) and Projector Retrofit Kits are around $280 on sale, why waste your money on LED Bulbs when you can have projectors with a little more cash and a little work ?

Sorry that was off subject a little but I found that most LED Bulbs are not setup properly to work with the OEM Housing Reflectors !

I ended up with a Projector Kit, waiting to do the Mod !

Unless the housings are different than my Highlander, I have LEDs in it and it is awesome..some guys also use HIDs and like them..I just like LEDs. I did install LEDs in my foglights. Since Rangers use dual bulbs they are just harder to find.. RockAuto has some at least better ones altho not LED..
