Brought to you by 1AAuto.com your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the internet. In this video we are going to show you headlights serving and replacement on this 2002 Toyota Tacoma. We are going to show you both if you just want to replace the headlight bulb as well as if you want to replace the whole assembly. A lot of times on these trucks they become clouded, cloudy and dull and scratched. Also they can get broken. Tools you will need are; a Phillips screw driver, a long flat blade screw driver and a 10 mm socket with a ratchet extension.
If you are just looking to change the headlight bulb, come in behind the head light assembly. You can pull your connection off by pulling back and then remove this boot and there is a wire retainer here push in, bring it up and out and now well I can take the headlight out. Okay new headlight, you want to put it back in with one of the tabs up, so that it can lean beyond the retainer here. You kind of pull back on the retainer, twist a little bit, push the retainer back down in, like that, put this boot right back on. Plug your harness back in. The same thing over here a little bit tighter with the battery there though. Now with your hood open, there is a Phillips screw right here on top, then remove that. Once that's removed you pull your light, you kind of pull this up, pull your parking light forward and then reach in behind and just twist counterclockwise on the socket. You want to repeat removing that side marker from the other side of the vehicle as well.
Now below the headlight just reach in and pull firmly. These clips, you actually, these two came apart you just reach down in and at the tab right here you press on that tab and that releases each clip. Release those ones first and then there are three down below so you need a long screw driver it will wand way down in here. Pull from the bottom here and reach way down to here, touch that tab, pull one in the middle and press it down and pull. The third rubber here that's already let go and there's your grill off. Now to remove your headlights there's two nuts on the side here and then a bolt right here. I'll just fast forward as I remove those two 10 mm nuts and the bolt.
Take out, pull this over to the side and pull it over to the side and out and disconnect your bulb and there's your light out. Take this new light from 1A Auto and just going to cut a little bit of the wrap off the edges. They are just going to plug in exactly the same. Okay, I'm going to just speed up here again as I put those two nuts on and then the bolt and then tighten them up with my 10 mm socket ratchet and extension. You going to tighten them up snug but don't over tighten them.
For installation, it's pretty simple. Make sure it goes in underneath and push that side in, push the opposite side in. Then make sure your tabs line up here because the lower ones go in. Give it a good extra push and make sure it is locked in. Light in, there are two tabs; there's one up here and one down here that goes into the grill. Make sure that lower one goes in. Make sure this goes underneath. Then make sure that one's going in, push it in, walk it right in. Make sure you can see the hole in the headlight and put your screw in and you repeat this from the other side you are all set.

Headlights rattle/move around
Gregg
January 21, 2017
The good news is that the lenses are clear and, contrary to the description, bulbs are included. The bad news is that the metal ball/plastic sockets used to hold the units in place are not nearly as snug as the precision OEM ones being replaced, so the lenses move around even when bolted tight. I wound up shimming them in place with some cut pieces of plastic tubing. Sad that aftermarket stuff often looks good, but just doesn't work as well as original equipment.

Headlights have too much play.

The headlights are exact in every way as the OEM, except for the fact that the brackets have too much play. After tightening down everything and ensuring proper fit, the headlights wobble. I had a new set sent to me and had the same issue with those as well. I think 1aauto should research the "Vision" brand because there clearly is a quality issue. I decided to get them at the dealer with no issues after install versus going through the hassle of possibly getting the Vision brand from another online retailer.
On a positive note, 1aauto has excellent customer service, and are extremely helpful they make the return process very easy. I recently bought headlights for my mothers 97 Chevy Lumina and encountered no issues, she was very pleased.
good price but loose fitting

Good price and fast shipping. Headlights are loose when installed. Not like the originals. Was able to add some spacers to get a tighter fit. OEM lights are $175 a piece so these are a bargain.

Grest replacement at a reasonable price. I had to do minor adjustment to get the correct light view I wanted. Overall I would recommend this product to other people. I only gave four stars because I thought the glass would be thicker

They're just ok. They fit properly, however they are significantly too loose. This would be an easy and inexpensive fix on behalf of the manufacturer and is a common complaint in the reviews. I'll be looking for a way to shim them in order to take out some of the wobble.
Super Good!

toyota head lamp and side light assemblies

November 17, 2018
Bought headlamps for right and left. One of them was missing an internal subassy that wasnt connected. Two screws missing but found them in the box. No way to reassemble other than to drill holes through the plastic housing. The other came fully intact. The fit wasnt that good on either until I snipped off the end of one of the clips. Ordered two side lamps one came with a bulb the other without. Had to modify the clips to make them fit snug.

I got a price from a mechanic in excess of $300 to replace my headlights. Watched the 1A youtube ordered the parts and did it myself. Went well, next time I would replace the parking lights at the same time as it is not much more money and you have them out anyway.
