Given all the LED junk that is coming from China, even if you get them to play nicely with the systems in the vehicle, they are not the upgrade everyone thinks they are. The article mentioned does a good job of explaining why. Some of the better quality companies are working on a true conversion bulb for halogen but they won't be the $29.95 a pair from China ones. Properly designed, built with quality solid state components and then cycle tested, they will probably be $200-$300 a pair but actually be an improvement with proven longevity. In the meantime, stick with stock no matter the year of your 4R.

Thanks for that refresher. If anyone wants LED headlights they should do it properly: install Toyota OEMs. There are several threads here discussing how to make this conversation.
