you can buy a halo kit and retro fit in your stock light. It would require you to take your stock head light apart. And resealing it, which might lead to fogging.

there are plenty of companies that offer halo light for tc's 05-08 tc will fit with no problems.

I recommend www.matrixracing.com (http://www.matrixracing.com) i have had too expriences with them in the past.

Does anyone know the sealing product Scion uses to seal the headlights? By all bets, if you replace the sealant with the exact same kind, you should have Zero problems with fogging.

I wonder if regular silicone will seal them tight.

Use black RTV silicone. Not sure about toyota/scion but i know dodge uses it.
I've used it before too. Never had any fogging issues.

It's not so much the material you use as the way you use it. In other words, do it right and it wont fog.

yea the home depot silicone sealant will do the trick just fine as long as you don't rush through it.

ALso for sealing issues use this stuff from Autozone. Its like $5. Its a window clear sealant. I used it on all my headlights and i have 0 percent fogging issues. lol

Sounds similar to the stuff @ home depot. You can get it in black, white or clear.

I got the Oznium Demon Eye Kit from www.oznium.com (http://www.oznium.com) and have had great luck with it. It even comes with extra rings in case you break one. I resealed with some clear silicone I got from Home Depot and have been running for over a year with zero fogging issues.

The Oznium ones are really bright. You can see them in broad daylight. That is even through the 3/10 BlueBat tint I have on my headlights:

please dont do angel eyes...they look tacky on anything other than a bmw. get some tsx projectors and do a retrofit. best thing you can do IMO

i think they look badass

and IMO a projector retro of the 05-07 headlights is the best option out there besides stock 05-07.
