Cool XB1 WTB/T for LED TAILS, ‘OLD STYLE’ BLACK HOUSING

"Please close this thread, search has ended successfully" edit.

Hello fellow SCION LIFERS… I am at my wit’s end. Here is why. After years of enjoying my TYC tails, I decided that I want a different set of tails, LED. This is the style that I want:

These are seen on E-BAY every day, BUT the only manufacturer changed the style years ago and never told any of the vendors. I have purchased these lights from 3 different vendors, and all 3 sent me the wrong lights after I confirmed before the purchase that I wanted the ‘old’ style with the round turn/reverse light on the bottom half. “SAME AS PICTURE” they all said, so I had to take photos and made them refund all my money including shipping. These are the lamps that they all sent me:

I tried these on my box and did not like the separate turn and reverse lights.
Light bounces off the bumper and is not to my liking.

I googled the part number and inquired into every vendor who shows it in their ad.
The ones who speak English have no idea what is really in the boxes that they sell.
I would beg them to open a box to see what is inside, but they don’t care.
Even the places that charge twice or three times the market price, will ship me the wrong lights. Bait & switch means nothing to them.

So, I must now appeal to the SCION LIFE community. I know that someone has these lights, (LED on the top half, round turn/reverse light on bottom with black housing), and is ready for something else. I am prepared to buy or trade.

I have a part to trade, that every box owner wants!

Adjustable intermittent windshield wiper switch with 2, 4, 6 & 8 second delays. Looks EOM and replaces your switch. Easy D.I.Y. for this on CLUB XB, here is the link:

Please PM xBHAWK if you want a good home for your old style LED tails. I now know that I am a few years behind the times, from what I have read after searching.
I will pay or trade, I will even sing for these tail lights. I have TYC’s, fog light covers and cabin air filters to trade.

Please help if you can. Thanks for hearing my sad MOD story.

PM xBHAWK

This variable speed intermitant wiper switch is just sitting on my workbench. Who can make this deal with cash and a magic wiper switch?

Thanks to the show circut, my search is over.
I traded up to these old style SONARS:

Notice the extreme signal light. I swapped the sockets, reverse and turn signal for extreme visibility.
The search has ended. Thanks to Modding Scion People.
This thread will now close.
