New xD owner here, have questions

I just traded my xB for an xD and looking to do a few things...

I know I can probably look in my manual, but thats all the way out in m car, and I am at work. Anyone know what headlight bulbs the xD uses. I was hoping I could use the same size that were in my xB.

Has anyone taken the emblems off the front and back of the car? They are huge!.

the way the body lines are, you would practically HAVE to replace the front and back emblems with something. there is a round "nubbin" on the body line that (in my opinion) would just look weird if it was empty. i'm gonna leave mine on i think, but it would be pretty pimp to replace the scion logos with toyota or something like that.

sorry i couldn't help with the headlights.

I thought Slyvania's weren't the good bulbs O.o I'd love to change my bulbs but I have nooo idea how! I'm wanting bi-xenon (I think thats it) headlights in my headlights.
