Hahahahaha... sorry, but you'll never get a set of these.

They're the JDM HID option headlights. IF you can find a set, they'd probably run you 2 grand.

They are about $1500 before shipping not to mention you have to set up a wiring harness to run them on US xB's.
Yes you still can buy them and they ship to USA $735 per side #240-016-006

there was a brand new set on E-bay a while back with a harness and wiring instructions if you could find the seller he might make the harness for you

Pretty sure that price is for the housing only. At $700ish for each housing, plus shipping from Japan, they're definitely some of the more pricey headlights for the box.

I absolutely love them.

cuz they are sooo sexy lookin. that's a good idea... i got a friend who is going to be stationed in japan next year, maybe ill just pay a visit to her over there and "acquire" some

i was talking to a friend of mine the other day and was telling him about these lights that i wanted for my box and he told me he wouldn't spend that much on Toyota HID's he said they don't have a very long life to them. then after him saying that im noticing like half the prius and camerys with hids iv seen have one light out on them...
and these would not be under warranty...

MMMM, sexy lights. I would so dig for those. Proper HID reflective housings do have a good cut-off. Not to mention they look so clean in comparison to projectors.
