FIXING my NEW AlphaRex Headlights

After picking up my truck from the shop that was working on it, I noticed a number of things that were not 100% complete. Once of which was the install of my new Luxx series AlphaRex Headlights for the Tacoma. The biggest problem was the hyperflash.

Damn! I hope you got a really good deal on everything being installed in this video. Whatever shop did all this work for you really left a lot of things unfinished.

[@desertdime]

Yeah definitely a good amount of loose ends to tie up unfortunately. But hey that brings more content to the channel

That box pops off for the amber lights.. the white is fire

[@uno3863]

I have both the luxx editions in alpha black for for both the headlights and taillights on my 2012 tacoma and it completely changes the look of my truck, I was a little intimidating with the wire harness and having to go through the firewall an all because I'm no electrician by any means, but I installed them with no problems, I ran the white DRL for about a year, then I made the change to amber, looks way better IMO 😎👍🏽

[@desertdime]

Yeah getting through the firewall ain’t that bad once you do it once

[@savannahbrown570]

Honestly white looked badass with the way your trucks setup but amber when you color match or get the bigger tires for sure 👍🏼

[@desertdime]

Might have to switch back to the white 👀

[@ConcreteButcher]

Amber is cool but there are a ton of Tacomas running 5000 Diode Dynamics pods with amber running lights. So there’s that.
Switch pros needed
Have your favorite fab guy extend the fill tubes.
Paint the glass lol
Bumper turned out solid man.
They got you dialed in for the most part. Few things for you to work on yourself given it was just the passenger side that needed repaired. Congrats on new set up.

[@desertdime]

Haha Amber is quite the popular choice. But yeah switch pro needed, might get a 4 runner fill neck, and the glass needs to get paint matched.

For how long the truck was gone…that shop jerked your ass around. I’d be upset

[@trdrockwarrior_sport4432]

Who makes that bumper

[@Declan_Walter06]

Might be an unpopular opinion but i dig the white drl

[@desertdime]

Both look great in their own ways! Maybe I need to see them with the headlights all the way on

[@KARIM-db9uz]

Who made the bumper?

[@desertdime]

A shop down in SD but I have a shop in Anaheim that I’d highly recommend for getting work on your truck done

[@cristianvargas9123]

Are those Alpharex headlights the Pros or Luxx series?

[@desertdime]

Luxx series

[@joruckus]

I ran white dtr for about a year. Going back to amber. Lol

[@desertdime]

It’s sweet that we have the option to change it back and forth and don’t have to order it one way or another

[@dougm.635]

That battery needs some help..a little baking soda, warm water, (make a paste) and a old toothbrush and youre good to go...

[@desertdime]

I’m planning a little maintenance day for the engine bay. I’ll throw this on the list 🤘🏼

[@EL-TRD]

Just get the switch pros or aux beam

[@desertdime]

That’s the plan

[@415jokr]

Get an exhaust😝

[@desertdime]

I have a black widow widow maker muffler with a pre axel turn down pipe but that’s about it.

[@FredyandLunadventures]

Check out spod for that rats nest ⚡

[@desertdime]

Gonna be getting into something like that once the time comes
