Congratulations on the 4runner! I also own a 2003 with the 4.7L V8. I did my timing belt/water pump at Billion Toyota Sioux Falls and it came out to right around $800.

Congrats! Beautiful new rig. I've been thinking about making the swap to a GX470 or even a LX470 too. Not sure if I could live with the side opening rear door on the GX470 though. Keep us updated on how you like your new rig!

Yes I would just get the splitter as they aren't very expensive. What DM posted should work, looks very similar to what I ordered from Lightwerkz.

Yep don't worry it's a 23 gallon tank. I had 1/4 of a tank remaining yesterday and put in about 14 gallons. 20 gallons is also about what I fill up if my low fuel light turns on.

DM is correct. I have an 03 with Morimoto Mini H1s with a high beam splitter so I can try and get you some pictures later. Another way to put it, if you orient the high beam splitter like the letter "Y", the bottom of the "Y" goes to your stock high beam harness and then one branch of the "Y"...

If you go with HIDs (in either 03-05 or 06+) you need to retrofit an HID projector as well to focus the light and not glare oncoming drivers. If it's the XenonDepot kit I'm thinking of, those do not include HID projectors. The XenonDepot kit just include the bulbs, ballasts, and wiring. You need...

1. When you're talking about LEDs, are you simply talking about installing an LED bulb or an LED projector, like this? Bi-LED: Profile Bi-Lens LED 2.0 2. I do not know much about LED wiring/hyperflash. I believe hyperflash does refer to only turn signals though.

I do a lot of my driving in the dark on rural highways with lots of deer so light output is very important to me. I just did a HID retrofit. I went with Morimoto Mini H1 7.0 and ordered from Lightwerkz but The Retrofit Source is another good option. I ordered from Lightwerks since they were...

Ah I see. I didn't look closely enough at the pictures you posted. Keep us posted, I'm curious to find out what's causing you these issues. Best of luck!

I had a similar issue while retrofitting projectors into my 2003. I did a Mini H1 7.0 retro. I kept turning the vertical adjustment screw on the driver side and it wouldn't seem to go up. Turns out, the mount the adjustment screw inserts into was stripped out. I swapped one out from my old...

HID Retrofit I purchased a set of aftermarket housings from Ebay for $80 and retrofitted Morimoto Mini H1 7.0 projectors into the housings. I used these two threads as references (thanks @TiN and krupnation): Finally done! Mini Morimoto H1 retrofit...pic heavy TiN's Mini H1 Retrofit I...

In your experience, are the Mini H1 precision bulb holders worth the $15?

Crutchfield I will also recomment Crutchfield. Great instructions and service and they make sure you get all the install gear to fit speakers and headunits. I ordered a Kenwood Excelon (non touch screen head unit) and install was seamless and I had all the correct parts needed. They also can...

Best for HID projector retrofit I have a 2003 T4R (reflector housings) and I'm planning to do a HID projector retrofit (Mini H1 or D2S). I'm looking to purchase aftermarket headlight housings so I can continue to use my T4R as a daily driver. My plan is to retrofit the aftermarket housings...

Thank you for this. I did not know the V6's 4WD system can be driven unlocked.
