Hi guys! I was looking into getting the 8000k HIDs for my 08 SCM tc. I was going to get them from ShopXenon.com because they were the cheapest place Id found them (at 109.99 for low beams)...however I could never find a shipping cost and after emailing them several times they never responded back. So needless to say, Im a bit weary of using that site now.
I was wondering if anyone knew of a reputable site or even place (i live in sc) where I could buy the HIDs (for a reasonably low price).
All help is greatly appreciated!! Thank you!
I'm interested as well. Sarah, I mentioned mobilehid.com to you, but they're pricey.

Just remember, with cheap parts, you get what you pay for. I remember cheap HID kits a while back were melting the harnesses on the tC. Dealerships won't warranty it because you added on the part and the engine harness is quite expensive. Save up a little cash and go with quality products. If you look around in the Electronics forum, you may have better luck finding reputable places to buy from.

MobileHID FTW -- Dont buy parts because they are the cheapest you can find -- thats an easy way to fuk up a brand new car.

I have bought three 6000k sets from Rob at A&R Motorsports on ebay. They have a physical store too and website. They were $160.00 but I've had zero problems. They were one of the few who had a relay in the wiring harness so the power for them comes straight from car battery instead of your factory wiring harness. I have them in the low beams of our 06 tC and the lows and fogs of my Denali. They did not have a set listed for my Denali so I just contacted them, they made a set for me and sent me an invoice. Two days later my lights were here.
The link below is not for the 08's but just contact them and tell them what you have and see if they can set you up. (and No I am not in any way affiliated with them.)

No this was a local show in Sacramento for around $140.00 I think... been I love them
www.3bspec.com (http://www.3bspec.com) $120($130? I forget) w/ shipping included and discount code (on scionlife go to sponsered sales and look for a post by Operatic)
Great kits, great service. They do overnight shipping on everything. My first HID kit had a messed up bulb, they replaced it the next day. They also helped me install it via e-mail at 11 PM lol. Had the HID kit for a year and still works great. I've gotten 2 other kits too from them for my friends/family.

Its $130 with the code. Just got mine installed last night. Ordered the wrong set the first time and they sent me the replacement parts at no additional cost. All I have to do is send them the wrong parts back at no cost to me. They do overnight shipping which is great, order monday morning and get it tues afternoon.
Heard a lot of great reviews about his lights so I gave it a try and they look nice. I love the fact that is has its own relay and runs off the battery.
Very easy to install, took me about 30-45 min to mount and route the wires to make it a clean install. I hate having wires all over the place.
