turns out the Bi-xenon: 'MotoControl 9003/H4/HB2 harness doesn't work with the 3rd Gen 4runners that well, you can turn the high beams on but not off. i found this out when i installed it in the parking lot of TRS. I went back inside to talk to Matt the employee that I bought this harness from, he came out and looked at it and decided to that I should try the Morimoto Standalone Can-Bus. We hooked both up to each side and bam everything worked just fine, the headlights stayed on during low and high beam operation, and the H/L shield went up and down during the H/L changes

here's the link for the CAN-BUS Harness

by the power invested by me, i raise this thread from the dead

the reason is...i am looking at doing a retrofit this weekend using the same shrouds, however, mine are 3" lenses...looking at all my stuffs, i'm questioning whether it will all fit in the housing. How much extra room do you have after the install? you think i'll be good?
