    I use these. A lot more yellow than the stock ones, but nothing that’s 100% amber.

    I did this on my 2022. Not sure what year yours is, but in 2021-2022 (maybe 2020?) the LED headlamp housings use the DRL section just for DRL (not high beams as well). I got some amber bulbs from Amazon (Optilux Hella) in size 9005/HB3. Literally took 12 seconds per side, the bulb is extremely easily accessible. I did notice the bulbs had two filaments (one for "low" and one for what I assume most cars would use for high beam), but they work great. Color is definitely more yellow/amber than factory; I was hoping for more orange but they are good enough for me. Only picture I have is below:

    they do make orange ones as well that will match the turn signals. I’ve run the yellow in a couple cars and they look GREAT!!

    love that pic of your 4Runner!
