I was in the same boat with Toyota south Atl. The order went stagnant so I sent two emails requesting updates with no response. A little while ago I received a shipping confirmation so hopefully the orders start going out for everyone still waiting.
Mine definitely took a substantial amount of time to ship/arrive, but it did all the same.

I just opened up one set to check them out. These kits are worth every penny at 4-5x the price. The harness alone is worth far more than the $20ish paid per set. I still am not sure what I'm going to use them on but I should have swung for the fences and bought a pallet full of them.

I ordered through a random dealer online, they emailed me saying it was back ordered and to call them. I called them and they said they can fulfill the order but unknown on ship time, I said do it. A week later both pairs showed up. Quality seems excellent so I just ordered two more through a more local dealer to see what happens. They were still $16 through this dealer

Just called toyota south atlanta and they processed the order. It sounded like the would not have processed it if I hadn't called.

Like others have said there was a wait from the order till they shipped it. After a couple weeks I was just about ready to call them but then an email came saying the part was shipped.

I wanted to include pictures and I have to say for less than $27 these are a great deal. Honestly I could see each individual headlight or the harness by itself being priced much higher than this whole kit.

I ordered two more sets at the $17 price from the nearest dealer for pickup….which is an hour away. Hopefully something will show up.

They look a lot like the Hella lights of the 1970's and 80's

Well, Southlake finally emailed me and said they cancelled my order because "They tried to reach me several times" even though I emailed and called without any response from them.

The semi-local dealership an hour away, however, just emailed that the two lights I ordered from them are ready for pickup at the $17 price.

Put an order in on Monday.
No response yet.
There is no "order Check" feature on their web site.
Will call to check next week.

The CJ will be happy!

Who knows?
Ordered two sets a few weeks back and sent the wife to pick them up today. Turns out they had another one in stock so I bought that one too.

One of these is going into a C70 log truck.

Nobody has turned them on yet to see what the light is like?
I've had them on but not on the road at night yet.

I'm replacing incandescent sealed beams. So it's going to be a big improvement.

I doubt they will be much different than halogen sealed beams with relays. Years ago I installed relays in my k1500 with halogen sealed beams and it's as good as most newer stuff. For the price you can't buy relays, wiring, and new halogen sealed beams.

Installed mine today in the Jeep. Super nice stuff….just wish the harness wasn’t eleventy three miles long. I may wind up swapping LED bulbs into the housings and not use the relay setup, for simplicity.

Overall I’m quite happy.

Yeah, the wiring harness is one-size-fits-all sized and bulky at that. What LED bulbs are you guys using in these?
Here’s a picture of the high beams in my Camaro.
I don't have any experience with those lights, but I like the Auxito brand on Amazon. They do a very good job of replicating the position of a filament so the light pattern tends to be very close to that of a halogen bulb. A lot of the LEDs I see are just made to be bright but the quality of the light is awful.

They were a little tight in the buckets, causing the trim rings to. It want to for real well. Other than that and the huge amount of wiring, they are super nice. We will see how they do at night. IMG_6771.jpegIMG_6773.jpeg
The rubber boot on the back of the new housing is what bound up in the bucket on mine. A little wiggling got them in

I had a similar issue with a set of Hella conversion lights I installed. I ended up trimming the boot opening to the next "step" on it. Still seals up nice and fit much better. These conversion lights aren't perfect but minimal effort for such a big improvement!

Got a note to pick mine up. :)

Picked them up. $14 a set.

They look good, not as flat as the old Hellas.
Now I need to shop for a good set of LEDs that work well with the reflectors.

Picked up 2 sets today. Third time ordering them. Used a local dealer this time. About 21 dollars a set thru them. Now have a set for the Jeep and an extra set should I ever need a replacement.

After waiting 6 weeks, Toyota south Atlanta notified me that my order is packed and ready to ship.
Plus, this:
UNFORTUNATELY WE ARE GOING TO NEED EXTRA SHIPPING OF $53.37. PLEASE GIVE US A CALL AND THANKS IN ADVANCE.

$53.37. A group of us ordered a few sets.
I was hoping if I didn't give out too much details they'd ship them anyway. But they probably won't.

Wow! I only ordered one set but it was $11 shipped to Ky. Im going to call a somewhat local Toyota dealer to see if I can order another set... Received mine last week and Im pretty happy with it. As others have said, the wiring harness alone is worth the trouble and since I've probably never need it, figured I'd order another.

They are bright as expected. I went from incandescent to halogen and stock wiring that ran through the dimmer and headlight switch to relays that get power right off the hot post on the starter solenoid. I could have gotten the same amount of light with a homemade relay harness and halogen sealed beams, not for this price though.

What really impresses me is the pattern on these. Low beam has a nice defined cutoff. Puts plenty of light out in the ditch. The light control is better than any sealed beam I've had.

Best of all they look almost stock unlike every other aftermarket headlight.

I need to fix my adjusters before I can really get these dialed in. Somebody decided the adjusters should screw into plastic, and after 45 years the threads pulled right out.

I had the same issue with my C10 and ended up using a kit from these guys:
Really nice kit and for the first time I was able to actually adjust the lights without fighting them!

Yeah this. Very similar to the OE headlights on mid-70's BMW airheads. With the relays, it's quite possible (but not necessarily legal!) to up lamp these. I would have gone LED in my airhead if not for the price and the heatsink in an already crowded headlight shell with no ventilation.

There are newer LEDs with internal fans.
That is probably the way I am going with my 914
