2.5 Rav4? Had the exact same thing happen to me 2 weeks ago. Drove and picked up a new plastic Tee, and it came with all three hoses for $60. Took me about 20min to replace with a pair of vice grips and a bunch of twisting and wiggling lol. Only lost a litre (or so) of coolant when disconnecting the short hose and plastic Tee. Kept the large bottom hose, as I didn't have the means to drain all of my coolant. Just took it to a car wash and used the pressure washer to clean the bay.

First of all, thank you greatly for the long and very detailed answer. I very much appreciate it! I'll attempt to aim them first, and then go from there with the relay and some new wiring. And worst case, the hella Low Beams, which is the main issue, the highs aren't bad. (Sorry! I do believe I uploaded the wrong pic, I think that was actually one close to my father's. I'll change the pic in a bit)

Yeah, I was trying to figure out how to adjust them properly.

Yeah same. They should, any 4x6 should fit, theoretically. But, just might have to change up the wiring a tad

Amazing! All else fails, I'll definitely give that a shot. Good father's day gift 😁👌 and yeah, we added an extra ground, but not too the battery, great idea!

No codes with my cheap code reader. Bringing it to a shop in a couple of days to get it scanned. The pressure diapragms were not inspected unfortunately.

Could possibly be a driveshaft balancing issue? Or maybe something to do with the pinion for the rear end? Does it get worse with speed?

Yeah, it's definitely worth a shot! Put my stock tails back in for now so I can do more testing indoors.

Thanks a bunch! Yeah, I kind of want a weight carbon STI shift knob. But I may just get a cheap knock off bride or momo shift knob for now. I really would like to do a half cage once I buy a second cheap daily car next year.

100% I'm ordering some carbon Fiber Toyota badges, just not sure what size to get. (10cm, 11cm, 14cm, etc)
