I arrived home to find a fairly large box waiting. As I opened the box, sifted through the peanuts, and unwrapped each headlight, I couldn't help but giggle like a schoolboy. My giggles turned to all-out laughter when I pulled the invoice out of the box and read the total price aloud: $167.10. These puppies would have cost me a pretty penny. But, I'll now be able to install these new headlights AND sell my old ones on eBay. I'm so happy. Now, it's time to visit Mechanicsville Toyota to pick up my new grill and back window.
On a different note, here are a few photos of Gizmo eating his kitty grass. Since cats have a natural urge to eat grass, some company has created a product that you buy and grow grass for your cat to eat. We bought our grass kit at PetSmart and Gizmo seems to really enjoy it.

No, Gizmo! Don't start getting addicted to the grass! It'll only lead you in the direction of more hardcore drugs. No, Gizmo, no! We need an intervention.

Nice headlights, Jeff! Are you sure they're really free?
Fred and Sue's cats eat home-grown grass, too. Sue keeps 2 pots going--one to eat on and one to start more grass growing.

I'll say it again man. -No such thing as a free lunch. I'm going to hate saying I told you so. :(

If someone can PLEASE tell me exactly how this is gonna bite me in the ass, I'd love to hear it. The money was refunded to my Pay Pal account and I just withdrew it. Am I missing something?

You're not missing anything, Jeff. Free lunches (though a rarity) DO exist.

Yea just worry about matching crystal clear corners. :)

Hopefully they won't come back & bill your pay pal account & wait for you to put money in it for something else. Then they charge you a late fee & it causes your other item to be delayed because of a lack of funds. But even with those new headlights everybody is still going to know it is still just a Toyota Tacoma, there is no hide that behind crystal clear headlights no matter how bright they are. How's Nascar Thunder going, won yet?

Aww man, them's fightin' words.

You know Jeff, it sounds to go to be true. What is gonna happen is this. You will remove the old headlights and start installing the new ones. Then something on the new light will break. Happens every time.
