    After reading a tread on another forum I thought of sharing in this forum to share knowledge.

    Wonder if LED headlight housing manufacturers make heated headlight option. Wonder what you guys use on LED headlights? Rain-x deicer?

    Halogens are the only heated headlight option that Toyota has that I'm aware of. I tried using windshield deicer the first time today and I wasn't impressed with how it performed. You could carry around a bottle of denatured alcohol to clear ice.

    I'd be worried if that damage the paint.

    Wonder if there is any solution from Toyota since 2020 and newer 4Runners having LEDs stock.

    Good point, don't use alcohol.
