I bought a set of these light but before I did, I asked "them" several questions about fitment and hookup, they stated ( and I have the e-mails saved ) that they were "plug and play " except for the small "driving light or accent light " it would need to be wired in for use...so.. I purchased a set..So now on to the install party that the Tulsa Scikotics had, the light are NOT plug and play..I REPEAT NOT PLUG AND PLAY ! you will have to cut off your stock blinker/parking light plug and splice/solider the one that comes with the FX1 lights, the stock light plug will not fit the new lights, plus we also had to "trim" the FX1 plugs to get them to fit correctly in the light housing so the gasket would seal and not let moisture in. I contaced Scion Sport about these problems and they insisted that the lights were plug and play..I dont see how they could be as the stock blinker/parkinglight plug is differnt shape and the one that comes with the FX1 lights just have loose terminals on the ends of the wires.

Anyway after some wiring mods ( thanks Vaughn) the lights so far work great and look awesome, the quality is better than any other aftermarket light I have seen !!

I really think that if the quality was "better than any other" you shouldn't have to trim parts and pieces and rewire to get them to work. If they were really quality pieces, the whole thing WOULD BE plug and play.

I agree...but the housings are all metal, you can adjust the beam height..I just think they need to change the claim of "plug and play" on their website and the auctions on Ebay.

You know I like em!!! I've seen these in person and they definately are a higher quality/durability than anything else I've seen offered.

It doesn't take much to be higher quality than any other aftermarkets out there, and these are definitely higher quality. That is, as long as you don't mind some wiring.

Aren't these cool lights? I have had them on my car for a couple months now, no problems what so ever.. I have the trim pieces sittin on my livin room floor painted the same color as the car & about to get installed when it warms up just a bit more to do it.

HID's look good in them too just to let you know..

Looks Good!!!!!

FrankenScion

Seems like there would be some glare if you put HID's in these.
Do you have any?

ratcityrain

None what so ever. In fact, i don't even know what halogen bulbs look like in these 'cause I have had HID's in them since I installe the new housings. My HID's are so much brighter w/ these new lights compared to the dual projector ones I had.

Those are pretty hot. Definatly better than some others.

mile_hi_sci

how much $$$ and time was spent on these after all was said and done??? worth it???

BATComm1

Dont know the $$ on the HID kit but the Lights are on Scion Sport website for $ 250.00 with free shipping right now !!

ratcityrain

think they are worth it. Didn't take me very long to install them & or wire them up.. Rather simple i thing...

Good price too, i wished I would have waited to pay that much, but I wanted to be the 1st to have 'em and i was in CA and in WA

BATComm1

I think they were worth it..I really like the lights, I had halo's and sold them and my stocks to help pay for these !!

I guess by plug and play they meant to plug the loose terminals into the connector so that you have an unsealed connection and get the corrosion started right away.
Other than that and the wires color matching but not in the right spot I think they are awesome. I plan on getting a set. Since I know what to look for in the wiring, it's no problem. As far as build quality, I would have to agree they are the best I have seen so far as well. They just need to send a sealed connector for the small marker lights.

ratcityrain

the build quality is nice 'cause there isn't any plastic other then the trim housing, which by the way looks 10 times better painted...


go here if you want to see what mine look like (yes this is my silver xb)

I know I love mine. They were easy to install. Thanks to Rockblocker for the blue headlamp protection too.. makes them nice and pretty.. that and safe.

I was gonna get some of those. My box is in the body shop right now thanx to two deer. Instead of stock I was gonna use aftermarket to fix it. I didn't because I was worried about quality and PLUG AND PLAY issues. They sure do look hot though.
