Toyota Euro Style Tail Lights

Well, that's a bummer. I know TRDSparks had pulled the TYC Euro Style Tail Lights once before due to reliability problems, but started selling them again when the problem had been supposedly fixed. Guess not. Too bad, I like the looks of these tail lights and think they would look good on my car - but only if they work.
The Longo tail lights have more of a VIP look. It looks good on VIP style cars, especially black, white and silver. The VIP look doesn't go with the rest of my car, and I haven't seen any photos of the Longo tail lights on an RS6.0.
So, I may be sticking with the stock tail lights for now.

I am on my 2nd set of TYC tail lights and now the passenger side brake light is burned out.. No warranty at this point since over 2 years old and second set. Has anyone taken them apart to change bulbs yet???? Can this be done easily. Don't want to screw them up and don't want to buy another set of tails just because the tail light is burned out. I know ebay lists a LED replacement bulb but dont want to waste money here either way.. Options or advice greatly appreciated!!! Thanks guys!

they might look good but if they can not be replaced by a simple bulb your out about 270.00$ when a bulb burns out if ya get a new pair!
Gotta open mine up on Sunday when I have some time to play with them and see if I can replace a bulb or have to replace the whole tail light.....

Just got my TYC LED Tail Lights in today, I bought them used form LKQ on eBay for $68.00 plus shipping. Not a mark on them and very clean. Here are a few pics for those who asked what they look like. Sorry the car is so dirty.
These are "Euro" style, which from what has been explained to me all that a tail light needs to be considered "Euro" is a Yellow Turn/Hazard light versus the all Red. They don't have to be LED.
I was considering just smoking my factory lights to give my car more of the Red and Black differences, gonna stick with theses TYC's for a little bit. Hope they last. If they do go out and I can't get them replaced I have some ideas for them.

No trouble out of them so far, fit was great, and man are they bright, huge difference over the stock ones especially at night. I have since removed the sticker from the dealership and changed the license trim and replaced the lic plate bulbs with red ones, but I think I am going to go back to the white bulbs to be legal.
DREWxB08 - Man I bid early and was surprised that no one else bid on them, I have bought a few things from LKQ, and all except one has been better than described and the one that wasn't the replaced ASAP.

Well, I noticed last night that I have one LED out in the passenger side brake light and a few out in the driver side brake light. I really like these tail lights. Not sure what I am gonna do at this point, made it a little over 3 months.

Does anyone know if the NEW/2nd generation TYC Tail Lights are marked in any way as to be able to tell them from the set I have now?
My local Scion dealership said that they are not available to order again. Anyone heard if there was another problem or are they stopping to support the 2011 style xB?

Where to buy
Hello guys I know I'm late to the party here but anyone know where I can still buy these? I have a 2010 Scion XB for 12 years still going strong but just of late decided to start doing mods. I will keep this car until it dies.
