Ordered some more goodies for the 4Runner.  I was planning on using 6 55w fog lights for rock lights under my Toyota.  But they suck a ton of amperage and put out mediocre light.  I've always wanted to run LED's but they have been out of my price range.  I found a link on Pirate for a strip of 20 LEDs for $26.  The output looks great for the $.  They will be much easier to wire as well.  Since they draw little amperage, they don't have be wired with relays.  I plan on putting 2 or 3 inside the cab for dome lights and the rest will go under for rock lights.

I also wanted to upgrade my front Hella 500FF's.  They are a standard 55w H3 bulb.  I don't actually have them wired so I can't comment on how little light they put out in stock form.  But the hot modification for these lights is to buy a cheap HID kit from DDM tuning and convert them to HID's.  Granted, the converted lights won't put out as good of light as a true HID but the output will be enough.  I ordered the 55w 4500k lights.  Should be bright!

I also plan on upgrading my stock alternator to a GM CS130 style alternator.  I already have the Toyota to GM alt bracket.  I will need the extra amperage for the winch and the Oasis compressor.
