I do, Its somewhere in here.. What do you want to know? I can tell you they are a great buy if your interested in LED lights. The driving pattern is excellent. I used a ryobi Multi tool with the cutter blade to trim the plastic in the lower grill.. Then I attached a right angle drill head onto the multi tool and drilled a hole through the bumper ( Must have patience and extra drill bits.)

Line up the rigid industries Brackets it comes with and drop a carrige bolt through with a washer. Reach behind the bumper with matching nut and get to catch the bolt. ( More patience needed) ( Have someone you can yell at to take out frustration)

Then your done. ( Wiring is as straight forward as anything else)

I masking taped the lights when plasti dipped
 
Biking, fishing, hiking today

And compressing, stretching, and exploring

Installed my Daystar 2.5/1.5 kit (FINALLY) and All Pro 1.25" wheel spacers. Also ordered some stainless steel brake lines and Light Racing UCAs.
 
Timing belt
Water pump
And transmission flush
All done at toyota, expensive day but good to get all maintenance performed so I can move on to mods!
 
Most of the kits are more or less the same thing and if you do it right will give you good results.. However. the more you polish your headlight the faster it refogs. No Matter what you do..

That's not necessarily true. When you are finished polishing/restoring your clear plastic, you MUST coat it with something permanent or you will be restoring it again in about a year (or months). Many swear by Opti-lens coat. Very expensive, but it works. The secret in KEEPING the headlights nice and clear is protecting them.
 
Moved the air compressor up by the power steering reservoir and installed a 1 gallon air tank.

Next step is to route a airline to the back for easy access.

Just dropped off my T4R for an alignment! Haven't driven it in almost 2 weeks now lol. As soon as it's done, I'm taking the pups for a ride to the park :)
