Would I be better off and save money buying after market parts for some of the customizations?

I don't know a ton about cars (why i'm askin hehe) so any suggestions, help, death threats would be appriciated

I would check out www.trdsparks.com for your TRD, Scion factory accessories, and several good aftermarket company products. Heavy discounts, reasonable shipping, sometimes free, Specials, Gift Certificate Drawings (April 2nd), and installation instructions for many of the products on the site. That'll give you about 100 products you can compare. Be sure to sign up on the home page for the drawings that are taking place on 4/2.

TYC Tail Lights

I'd like to install the TYC tail lights but would like to see the installation guide before I get them. Is there a site where I can see this or can anyone e-mail me one? Thanks.

Yes, get it stock and save big bucks and have fun in the process. BTW, the tail lights are a 30 minute or less job with a deepwell 10mm 1/4 inch drive socket. short extention and ratchet. Also instead of 2 grand for TRD wheels spend half that for some chrome 17's and have a better ride. Use the other grand saved for half your other mods.
The dealers bet that people will add stuff on because it can be added into the loan but why pay interest on overpriced parts plus the over priced labor involved with said parts. Makes ZERO cents. JUST SAY NO. DIY

Check out our site. Many of the installs are on the site for everyone to use. When you go to www.trdsparks.com and pick the tC, Lighting Mods, Tail Lights, and open the page with the TYC's on it, the installs are in the upper right hand corner of the page. Hope that helps.
