Sorry, you ordered that one bulb size and color (green) that is just not easy to get a hold of :T

Let me know what kind of Scion you have (year and model). We should be able to get'em. Just an issue if they're in stock.

I was asking you a couple of pages back about where I needed to go for the Yellow HID's and never got a response.

Did a lot of cleaning up on the website, expanded on the "browse by car" section for vehicle specific parts and because it makes it easier if you don't know the bulb size for your vehicle.

Also carrying a slightly cheaper kit that we've been field testing locally. Looking at about $80 shipped. That whole line is listed here until I can get them categorized:

Anything lower than that... well... PM me and we'll talk.

Been organizing the website lately. Got a complete Scion section, just been adding stuff based on boredom and what people ask for on prices. The catalog I have sitting here is bigger than my head >_<

Added a second line of HID kits along side or normal stock. A little cheaper. For the absolute penny pincher there's a third line that we filter in upon request, you'll have to PM me for a price tag on that one.

Mostly just been fighting with these damn '02+ Dodge Ram's. That and working on a set of 95-99 Maxima retrofits and an Acura RSX retrofit (well that one is a bolt-in, not sure it counts) for a couple customers. Hope to clear out the Acura RSX this weekend.

And yes! I finally organized the LEDs to the point where we can keep the things in stock >_<
The online inventory is pretty accurate, we just set aside a few strictly for online orders.

The Scion section, parts added upon request or boredom:

Any pictures of the red HID's?

"Red" is the most inconsistent color mix we've ever done, but if you want, email hanh@3bspec.com and he can email you the pics.

Alright thank you.

how yellow are the yellow tinted bulbs that you guys carry

i was taking a look at your site & i noticed you sell retrofit projector HID kits. more specifically the PnP Bi-xenon G1 kit. will this work/fit on an 08 scion xD? if so, how hard would it be to install? i've been looking for the projector and/or halo look for my car. all i can find is just HID bulbs. which is great, but i think the project/halo look is awesome. thanks for your help.

Really Long Post, the cliff notes: Yep, the G1 and G3 projector kits should fit in the 2008 Scion xD headlight. We also have a set of Morimoto projectors in stock if you're looking for something with a more readily available bulb size for the projector.


The unabridged edition with footnotes by Sir Ringo:

Actually we can get the G1, G3 and Morimoto projectors. I've done installs using all 3 on a few different housings. To be 100% honest, outside of the weird proprietary bulb that the G1 and G3's use (excludes the G3/H4's because they use a D2S bulb), they're actually a really nice setup for the price.

The '08 Scion xD housing is pretty big. You should have no problem using either the G1 or the G3 projector. If you really wanted to use your own shroud, you would have to epoxy it due to the way that the existing shroud fits on there and I would suggest using the G1 in that case. Any 3-inch shroud with some JB weld should to hold it in place, should work fine.

There's some ins and outs on why we don't sell them directly through the webstore (namely in the form of turn around time and actual product availability) but we do filter them in from time to time when we have other stuff coming in. Which apparently these days is LED bulbs and strobe light kits.

hmmm...i'm not the most automotively inclined so let me see if i understood all this by asking some more questions, lol! which of these items will require me to bake my headlight housing & take it apart in order for me to make them fit? i know you said it should work nicely, but then you mentioned something about using my own shroud? i'm really not trying to bake & take apart anything; i just want to take out my halogens & put something else in with little to no extra work. (i know i'm lazy, lol!) i know my xD headlight housing is pretty big & it uses a H4/9003 bulb. I really like the G3 because i was told it has a wider beam spread compared to the G1 & they both have the halo. does the morimoto have the halo? also, the morimoto uses a H1 bulb size. the xD uses H4, does this matter? last one, since my bulbs are H4, they all come in a d2s setup, will this be a problem because these being projectors?

Anything on the retrofitting level deserves to have lots of questions answered, so don't worry about that part

Q1) which of these items will require me to bake my headlight housing & take it apart in order for me to make them fit?
A1) All of them will require you to bake apart your headlights in order to install the projectors themselves.

Q2) i know you said it should work nicely, but then you mentioned something about using my own shroud?
A2) The changing of the shrouds on the G1 and G3 projectors has been a common question. It sounds like you're looking for the simplest installation, so I wouldn't worry about that.

Q3) i'm really not trying to bake & take apart anything; i just want to take out my halogens & put something else in with little to no extra work.
A3) Welp, hate to say this, but that completely eliminates any projector kit out of the equation. You're best solution then is a plug-and-play HID kit.

Q4) Does the morimoto have the halo?
A4) No sir. Although you could attach one to a shroud, and subsequently attach the shroud to the projector itself. So it's completely doable.

Q5) the morimoto uses a H1 bulb size. the xD uses H4, does this matter?
A5) Technically no, because when you switch to a Morimoto projector you physically change what bulb is required. We could get together a relay harness so that it matches up with the vehicle.
