I love how people talk $hit about those of us who opted for factory options.
Are there cheaper options? Yes.
Are there better options? Maybe.
Will I get more for my trade/sale loaded with factory options? Yes, for sure.

I don't have the time to do all that on my own, wait for broken boxes, take apart my car, and hope it comes out OK.

I'm all down with those of you who do your own work. Just stop baggin' on those of us with more money than time to spend modding.

^^ agreed! I want more for my trade. Anyway back to the ebay lights does anyone feel that they are close enough to oem that they will pass? I am not interested in the Halo or any aftermarket light. I just want the factory light but if I can avoid paying 322 I will. Any feed back on this?

 

They look OK. OK.
But, have you tried one of those boneyards that sell used parts?
I've seen so many stories on wrecked tCs that I bet you can find a factory set cheaper.
Keep checking eBay too.
In the end, they're not bad, but not OEM.
Some people really hate 3rd-party add-ons.

first of all no one was talking $hit about factory fogs i wish my car came with them. but were just trying to say that the halo's are just as good as stock with a lesser price hey if you have the money to get factory fogs do it if i had the money i would get them but i dont.anyway i dont think stock fogs would not make that much of a difference for trade in value

 

People here talk endless $hit about factory options.
Many people are not into doing mod's.
Many people don't have the skills/tools/knowledge/desire.
It's just like posting pix here - if your car isn't lowered the first week you buy it (or ever) you get all kinds of stupid remarks.
I get that the SCION lineup is inexpensive. But if I want to dump $6k on options that I could do myself for $3.5k, then so be it.
That's all I'm saying.

Representin' the OEMs!

I like the factory fogs. I like the halo's too because they FIT. They're meant to be there.

I don't like retrofitting something that looks like it really doesn't fit in, or that looks like it doesn't belong there. I know there was a guy that put IS300 fogs in the bottom gaps. They look nice but the fitment still isn't perfect... and until someone makes fogs that go there and really fit there, I'll stick with the OEM ones.

 

I got OEM Fog Lights from a junk yard for 60 bucks in philly!

 

Not to down anyone, but I just don't see the point of putting fog lights in your grille instead of the actual fog light holes? Just my opinion, but to each his own. I would look at the APT ones on eBay, I bought them a few months ago, nothing to complain about so far.

 

Well some people like stock and some people dont....
