Okay so I just bought my 2012 scion tC. Prior to that I owned a 2006 GTI.
Is there a auto shift boot conversion to make it look like a manual? and is there a headlight kit that already has the Angel Eyes so I don't have to bake my headlight. lmfao

Thanks for your help!

Yes there's a shift boot that will fit the auto. In fact, there's a whole leather interior trim set for the TC2. You can get them made from Redline Goods with whatever color you want, but they're like $225 +Shipping for the set and the have a month or so turn around time because they have to be made and then shipped from Poland.

I'm actually selling 2 different sets from them if you're interested. Save a little money and don't have to wait a month lol

There's no whole headlight housings that you can just swap out yet, only individual kits that you install into your factory headlight

 

I'm selling a DIY kit/whole headlight with not just halos, but something cooler: demon eyes.

Are those legal.. ?

 

Not really with "demon eyes" lmfao and not really with the leather interior for the shift boot...

 

Any headlight modification is illegal, even HIDs. But that's why I have it wired up to a remote.

 

umm.. no that isn't true. but okay. lmfao HID's are llegal.

 

Well, it's true in California anyway. I don't know about other states.

Basically, anything that affects light output that isn't designed to be there (HID bulbs in halogen reflectors/projectors) or that didn't came stock from factory is illegal.

 

Man, as much as I love california that sucks. I don't understand that though if the dealership is willing to put the HID's in and it doesn't mess with your warranty why it would be illegal.

I'm in NY they could give two ____s about what your lights look like here.

 

No, factory-installed HIDs are legal. Not sure about dealer-installed but I think it's legal too.

Any light projecting from the front of the car can only be white or amber/yellow/orange. Some people run 8000K HIDs (bluish-purple) and get pulled over.

 

ahh, I see. Makes sense now.

 

i've been running 8000k in LA for almost a year now. no issues.

 

I'm running 8000k too and i've never had a problem.

 

actually, in NY any modification to the factory headlamp housings is illegal, if its not stock its illegal, including HIDs

obviously those with 8000k+ get hassled more, but ive always had 6000k, 5000k, or 3000k and never had an issue, but have had friends with 8000k, 10000k 120000k get hassles several times.. its just the blue tint of the lighting

cant have any aftermarket blue, red, or green lighting on the vehicle either as "other drivers can mistake it for emergency personnel"
