3.1 - Changing the headlight/fog lamp bulbs (All)
This modification is quite easy to do. The Tundra is equipped with headlights
that use a standard 55 Watt H4 Halogen Bulb. To some, the stock bulbs need to
be replaced.
You can replace the stock H4 bulb with another manfacturer's H4 bulb.
Sylvania, PIAA, and others all produce a replacement bulb.
Please be aware that you should not exceed the specified wattage of the stock
bulb. Some Tundra owners have been able to replace the stock bulb with an 80
watt bulb with no ill effects. However, it is not recommended to do so without
being aware that you may need to upgrade the wiring harness and or headlight
assembly.
Replacement headlight assemblies are $170 each from the dealer. If you melt
one, it may be an expensive replacement.
The stock fog lamps are a standard 9006 halogen bulb that uses a bayonet type
twist mount. You can use any 51 watt bulb that is 9006 compatible.
