ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
REVISION NOTICE
April 10, 2014 Rev1:
• The Introduction and the Repair Procedure sections have been updated.
Any previous printed versions of this bulletin should be discarded.
Introduction
Some 2005 – 2011 model year Tacoma vehicles may experience a condition where the inner
Daytime Running Light (DRL)/turn signal lens becomes distorted and bubbled in appearance. In
addition, the inner lens may appear cracked or separated. Updated Headlamp Assemblies have
been developed to address this condition. The updated Headlamp Assemblies have cosmetic
changes, so it is recommended to replace both the left and right assemblies together.
NOTE
This condition should NOT be confused with normal yellow-orange color that occurs over time
as the inner lens ages. Additionally this Service Bulletin does NOT address conditions with the
outer headlamp lens.
