Thank my friend your demo traction so clearly. I love you doing.
Followed this video step by step and successfully installed my head lights. Thank you!
It is nuts how much you have to take off lol doesn’t seem hard but goodness that’s a whole disassembly 😂😂😂 these headlights look great 👍🏼
Great video as always guys, much love from the bay🤙🏽
Just ordered mine, ready to give it a sweet looking Taco...
Have you gotten the headlights in and if you have, what do you think? Worth it?
@@geraldomedrano5558 I would say if you have the money to do so, by all means, because I have gotten some stares and it just looks wicked.
Very nice! I was stuck between deciding on the Morimoto's or the Alpha's, but having a very long past experience using Morimoto and being a huge fan of them I had to show them my support. Awesome job on this video too bro! I just posted up a new one on my channel too!
Thanks man!
@@Runnin4Tacos I have watched all of your videos regarding both the Alpharex Nova and Luxx series headlights and I wanted to know what your opinion was on the two? Which one do you prefer? Is one better then the other? I'm sure the light patterns between the two is different? Is one brighter than the other. I am trying to decide between these two in the alpha-black.
Does the alpha Rex have amber led DRL?
When are you going to post output or comparison shots? I ordered a set, but have been hearing they are not very good. Was hoping you could shed some light on these. Debating on canceling my order and ordering oem LEDs. Please post soon. Thanks
I am about to hook up the tacovinyl raptor grille 2.0 with the drl leds on the corners.
My question is:
Do I tap into the aplharex controller power or the preexisting, now unused, original drl hook up?
My thoughts are if i utilize the preexisting, unused drl hook up from the stock headlights, I will be able to control from the switch as far as on and off goes?
2017 trd sport
What model is the truck a trd Offroad? I installed mine but I have no DRL’s didn’t install the drl harness per instructions but watching this is making me think I need to install it
There front bumper looks sick? Which one is it?
The headlights look great!!
Thanks
So how do u hook up the passenger side ? Being that there is no fuse connection on that side to cut off. Do we just plug in the brown wire and leave the DRL connection unplugged?
any instructions for a non trd model as far as using the add a fuse?
Just installed this on my 3rd gen Tacoma. I did ran into an issue where the high beams weren’t turning on. I seemed to wire everything correctly, but the only time the high beams would turn on is if I switched the low and high beam connectors, which isn’t the correct way to do it obviously. Any suggestions? Thanks!
And next time please show how it looks in the same video, it is difficult to track the follow-up videos
it because didn’t work 😅
What if I do not need dancing lights. Will they work sequentially or blink blink same as stock?
2018 Tacoma trd off-road 4x4
If im installing on a sr5 do i have to do the splicing step to use the light dance module?
Is it the same process when doing the alpharex trd style light?
You know how you attached the grey wire to the TRD adapter on the driver side ? What do I do with that TRD adapter for the DRL TRD adapter on the passenger side ?
I had the same question. I left it unplugged and it worked.
I learned that these headlights have terrible light throw. They fire most of their light right in front of you, on the ground and lack any focus at 42'.
The OEM LED headlights or even Morimoto LED headlights has much more usable light. Morimoto LED headlights have bad highbeams though.
Appreciate the feedback!
When are you guys gonna do a review on your guys AlphaRex TRD PRO-Style LED Reflector Headlights - 2016-2020 Toyota Tacoma?
We can get it on the list
Just bought mine. Watch your video and other’s but none of you show how to or what to do on the passenger side. ???
Nice lights. Does it come with bulbs? Also, since there are 4 projectors is this brighter than the Morimoto?
Everything is built in LEDs and yes I have been told so
Mine didn’t come with the yellow round plug on the headlight
Is there a harness or anything that will make these work with canadian tacomas? I've read that the drl stays on amber and won't go back to the white led.
The DRL stays white, only amber when the turn signal is active
I managed to put the lights on and glad to have purchased the lights, however got into a snag with the side panel, trying to pull and separate the panel and ended breaking the black plastic piece that holds onto the panel so now i am having to glue the piece on or try to locate a similar piece and the fenders i put on doesn't fit right and getting frustrated and may order the original OEM piece, which came in white but preferred the black. of course my hands got cut up, yeah i am whining like a little girl, hey just venting .
Did you use a trim removal tool or just pull it apart by hand?
Good light but messy harness job
Love the paint color dam bro 👌🏻
How much does it cost to change a color on a truck ?
looks like a wrap
Bro you left us hanging on the passenger side lol Im over here wondering if I need to cut any wires
I have 2 extra wires on the passenger side. One that goes from the DRL (the one we used to splice on the driver side, the single red wire) and the round connector that the wire with the yellow plastic thing connected to on the driver side. Do we just leave these wires unplugged?
I believe so. Sorry it's been a while
Just wanted to know , when you lock your truck and use your FOB key, is it expected for the passenger side headlights to stay on for a few seconds? Is this a expected feature when locking your truck?
Both the headlights should stay on for about 20 seconds.
@@Runnin4Tacos only the passenger side stays on , so I guess I screwed up somewhere.. Overall I am happy with the purchase and the look . Thanks
Projector or reflective headlights though. You guys should do a comparison
Projectors will be brighter. But also more expensive.
Awesome install video, after a few days I’ve noticed the driver side drl will turn off but not the passenger side drl. Have you seen or experienced this issue?
I have not experienced this luckily
@@Runnin4Tacos your team got me a contact at alpharex who walked me through what to check for, found a faulty wire connection in the side marker…warranty in the works
@@stavyscoot Do you mind sharing that contact? I just installed mine and I am getting a similar issue where the driver side drl stays ON in amber color all the time, sometimes it flickers.
@@stavyscootsame problem. Do you have someone to help out
What color is that on your truck?
cool stuff. i'm in the market for one as i have the halogens on my taco as of now. do you guys recommend the oem led or these? prices are somewhat the same
LEDS !
@@Runnin4Tacos thanks for the response. is it brighter and better performing? I haven’t seen any comparisons online or on TH-cam about the two.
Oh, day and night difference brother. Output, Longevity, everything is better compared to halogens.
Hey
Guys
I purchased alpa Rex head lights a couple of weeks ago. And running day lights look great.
But driving at night the light output is very very poor.
Please think about spending $1200 for head lights that are poor lighting when driving at night.
Right? I bought AlphaRex back in Feb, and was seriously disappointed with the light output. And other than the Logo, they do look nice. If you are spending $1000+ on headlights, you would wanted them for more than just for looks. With quad projectors, you would think they would have at least decent light throw.
OEM LED or Morimoto LED Headlights for looks and function.
Thanks for the feedback! We haven't tested them out at night personally
@@Runnin4Tacos Ye, your AB6 headlights which are proper HID retrofits, are much better in terms of light output and useability than anything on the aftermarket right now.
@@Runnin4Tacos wtf. You mean you bought these. Uploaded a video and yet didnt show them at night. Dafuq is the point of headlights. Cmon man
@@Sticks1680 it's an install video haha. People already know what they are, we weren't doing a review or else we would have put review in the title. It's strictly an install video haha come on man
What wheels are those???
Very clean.. Will that fit a 5 gen 4 Runner Limited?
No haha but there's a 5th gen 4R version
Taco Twonz ok thanks I’ll look into that.
With the yellow circular wire do I need that if I don’t use the light dance module
I don't believe so
Can I cap the yellow and red wires on the passenger side? Since there is no where to plugged them in
Yes for sure
No one does just the Sr5 install video. It does not say where to plug the add a fuse
I have an Sr5 can you plug the add a fuse in anywhere?
INJ fuse
I installed recently Do you know why the DRL’s won’t turn off when I turn the light switch to off?
Not exactly sure but I'm guessing it has something to do with the DRL plug
Taco Twonz, will the turn light be sequential without installing the lock/unlock light show feature?
So if I have a SR5 I do not need to cut and splice any wires for the little light dance?
Nope, you can use the harness the way it comes with the add a fuse
@@Runnin4Tacos How do I wire the lights for an SR5 without the dance but keep the DRLs?
Does the limited trim count as a TRD model? It has the DRLs
It does
My ALPHA REX lights are not working, the passenger side head lights are not working, It was working, but a mechanic said it was because of the Ballast. I rewired and tried to find the problem, even tried to call the company. can you change the light bulbs in the head lights, even thought I bought it from you guess in Feb 2021 , changed them out back to stock and now the head lights for the passenger side is not working , after replacing all 4 LED's. I am guessing the fuse , and that is located under the dash
Hmmm. Give AlphaRex's tech support a call, they are quick at pinpointing an issue
How do you connect the Module to the mirror lights to do the dance show to match the alpha Rex headlights?
Plug in the black box harness that it comes with.
When I’m on the Tacomabeast website or alpha Rex what option would I select to get the module or is it sold separately if so where can I buy it?im trying to get the same exact ones as shown in the video just need to know what option to select for that module buying the headlights it’s either “converter(trd projector headlights)” or “converter (For Factory LED headlights)”
I have a 2021 trd offroad. Will the install be the same?
Yessir, as long as you don't have the LED headlights
Do you have any videos on where to get power hookup for mods? Thanks
Like 12v from the battery?
Yes
No, we don't unfortunately
Thanks
Should the drl stay on all the time even though I have the headlights setting to off?
I think it needs to be on auto or on.
hi, is alpharex as bright as the oem drl?
Yessir brighter
Link for the butt connector?
Are these the black or the alpha blacks?
Alpha black, they are smoked
Didn’t even turn them on in the video no night time shots.....
I have a 2020 SR5 and installed these headlights with no issues, they function properly. However when I started the truck it struggles to idle or stalls when I give the gas.
Figured it’s the ECU, so I tried resetting the ECU by disconnecting the negative battery wire for 10 minutes. Still struggles to idle. Any ideas?
Does your drl stay on even though you have the headlights setting to off?
I broke my bumper trying to separate the bumper fuck
That wiring is wack. No way I'm spending that kind of money on headlights that aren't plug and play.
Bro, dont waste your time with this video, this guy cant explain it. For an SR5 you dont need that jacked up ass box to get sequential signals and the running lights around the lamp. The lights are plug and play, just has 4 connections for each lamp.
@@Taylor-ys2vh he's not talking about the sequential. It's for the start up light show
Let me dislike this video because this video is unfinished. You never showed the passenger side and when i got to that point i got stuck with 3 things not connected. Thank you for that.
Please don’t use that short repetitive music on repeat throughout an entire video again.
Music is annoying and makes it hard to focus on what you’re saying.
Otherwise, great video!
Guys, by far your worst video! Show box contents at the beginning and show the lights in operation at the end. I was left wondering how they look. You guys know better, cmon!
