i would NOT get those projectors unless you're just looking for a cheap way out. check out my thread (use seach) and you'll find some pics of my AnzoUSA projectors with HIDs. i've heard the anzousa quality is as good as it gets. pretty close to OEM quality

nice lights..but to be honest im really not looking for quality or brightness because the place is pretty lit around here and plus im satisfied with my reflector lights with 10000k so id just be looking for the nice halo look...

Ranking for projectors:
1. OEM Lexus, Acura, BMW, Mercedes
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
10. TYC Elegante
11. AnzoUSA

They're the best of the ebay projectors, but far from OEM quality.






You want these:

One the ebay ones you found, the middle one is definitely low beam projector, the 2 outside ones are turn signals (I don't know if both work, 6th gen only has 1 signal/parking light), and the inside one is high beam reflector.

The Supra is the only car I know of with foglights in the headlight housing.

These projectors will likely dim the lights a bit, not be better. That was the case when I went from OEM to Anzo.
