    I am new to Portland, Oregon area and need advice on who to take my 4runner to for specifically Morimoto headlight installation. I have already called one Toyota dealership, and they have never heard of the lights. !!

    I don't mind going outside of Portland for good quality work

    I did them in my driveway in like 45 minutes. It's a pretty easy install if you watch their YouTube video with a basic tool set.

    Generally speaking dealerships aren't interested in helping you mod your 4R. They have Toyota headlight assemblies if yours fail or becomes damaged, but that would be the extent of headlight help a consumer could expect from a Toyota dealership.

    This is as clear a vid as I can find on the process. As mentioned, not that tough.

    Headlights are easy to install. Just take your time not to break any clips and you got it.

    Just search "4runner headlights" on YouTube. Millions of vids showing it.

    The headlights are plug and play, did you go with the white or amber drl? The taillights are really nice too

    Welcome. As everyone has stated, the headlight install is super easy and can be done with a basic tool set. Just have an extra set of hands and a blanket to keep from scratching the front bumper.
