Thumbs up Two weeks with my 2014 tC

Joined the Scion family two weeks ago, been busy.

Here she is though, Veronica.

Imgur Album

The silver Altima in the back of the second picture is what I traded in.

Currently I replaced the interior lights with bright white LED's as well as the rear plate lights.

Dealer installed low profile spoiler, and 25% tint.

I bought the demo model and to appease my hatred for the 2011 Pioneer unit in it, they are going to be installing a Clarion nx702 for free this week hopefully.

I must say, I love this car to death. So much fun to drive. I'm seriously thinking about an HID conversion in the next couple months too.

I'm a little angry I bought it in Canada in the winter. I wont get to use my summer tires for a while still.

Nice! I like the red. I went from an Altima to a 2014 tC as well!

definitely recommend getting the retrofit source for the HID conversion with the relay of course, best decision i could have ever made for HID's, anyway congrats on the purchase! the red looks great and i definitely love the lower profile spoiler

What's this retrofit stuff? Still researching HID since I don't know much about it.

Any help would be awesome!

So a retro fit is taking a car with halogen projectors or reflective housing headlights and replacing them with actual hid projectors.

The reason people do it is better beam pattern of light to improve road visibility, clean cutoff, and other reasons haha.
