I'm assuming you have projectors since it's 2006. If so, read this thread - http://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/29458-hid-project-write-up-detail-pics.html

Yeah, it has projectors already...and I had that tab open already and I was expecting to see nice defined boxes that I was going to eliminate with the squirrel finder mod but this seems like another deal..?
also another thing I forgot to mention was that when I first fired them up the drivers side seemed to be a lot more blue than the passenger side. the color seemed to even out a little bit after a few minutes however.
can the bulbs be upsidedown or something? or do they need to be switched to opposite sides?
tomorrow ill post some pics (smaller format) of how I rigged everything.

Nope, looks right to me, you may want to look into the squirrel finder mod, but this is what mine look like in stock projectors

proper aiming of lights is to back the truck up 25ft and aim 3 inches lower of the center of the projector. example, if the truck light is 36 inches on the center point of the projector, the light on the wall should be at 33 inches on the lower step of the cutoff.

I was maybe 10 feet? probably too close...also the door is made out of metal and really reflective so there was a lot of extra glare. I found a different wall and there was still a lot of glare above the cut off but I think if I mess with the squirrel finders it should help that a bit?

Our bulbs are laser aligned and use a Philips UV quartz glass to keep the focal point in the same place as the original halogen bulb. You may find the cut off more apparent after upgrading to HID as they are 2-3 times brighter than halogens. You can try adjusting the lights if you wish but it isn't required.

On an unrelated note OP, what's that gem sitting next to the T4R? For some reason, it looks to me like the front end of the new AR

I think I'm just an idiot and shouldn't have used the metal doors to line things up. I found some different walls the use to check out the cut off and it becomes more apparent that I probably just need to mess with the squirrel finders.....I just don't want to deal with taking the battery out again.
