10 Series Headlight Swap - Any shops?
Purchased a set of brand new oem 10 series HID headlights to swap out my oem halogen. So far, Fusion Tek said they were capable of doing the install at a fair price, but anyone resided in Los Angeles have successfully done the swap and recommend a shop? Kinda wary about the complexity dealing with any electrical components so I'd rather take it to shop who has done the swap already. These are not the JDM version; these are the US spec 10 Series headlights. Thx!

Where'd you pick them up at!
|
hit me up i could swap them out
|
I forgot where I had purchased them but they were from a Toyota dealer based in Florida. You can find a lot of threads on this. It will probably cost you some where around $1500~$1600 for the pair. Comes with ballast and everything on the headlight.
Thanks for the offer on the install, but I'd rather take it to a shop as the car is only 5 days old driven off the lot. Did you do the swap on yours?? Have you run into any issues? |
Take it to FT if you want a shop who's worked on a lot of frs or autotuned aka frs86.

Thanks Zom,
A bit wary about doing the install at the first place and foremost needed to find a reliable/trustworthy shop who knows what they're working with especially coming to electrical matters. Autotuned is a bit far, but I guess FT will be the closest place. I'm just crossing fingers things don't go wrong putting on these headlights as the car is still brand new. Dunno how the car will react to these things, but FT did ensure me that the headlights and the wiring/repinning work will not do harm to do the car. |
Alex and sin has never failed me at @FuzionTeknique. They are truly helpful. A simple headlight replacement and repinis no big deal and wont kill the car.. They really do go out of their way to help out
|
Thank you BRZ. Makes me feel more comfortable having to get reliable inputs. Yea, i'll definitely talk to Alex at FT to have the work done. Afterall, they certainly do have a lot of good reviews but never read about them doing any electrical work.
|
+1 on FT, they installed my OEM foglights and my ebay toyota backup camera (camera came with incompatible wires, they were able to hook it up regardless)
|
Thank you rjsf. Yea, my most concern is having any electrical done on the car & have the fuse blow or have the ECU start acting up on me. After reading a lot of threads, I might even need a resister to tone down the brightness so I don't pull a ticket by the cops.
But I feel more comfortable going there now. Alex was sure a nice guy when I called. |
Take it to Autotuned. Best shop in the area.
|
I would really take it to Autotuned, but they're too far from where I live. And besides, I'm not even sure how long the installation is going to take...

By myself I could do this swap in 2-3 hours maybe one an hour and a half if I really rush it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Geez Zom. I really have no clue what I'm working with when it comes to electrical so someone like yourself who's an expert at things like this will surely complete it in a short period of time.
I was just being very wary about doing this as the car is still brand new. Don't want anything to go wrong on the car. But with all of the helpful suggestions from you all, I think I will take it to Fuzion Tek as initially planned. All I need now is a resistor to tone down the brightness on the DRL so I don't pull a ticket. I'm asking Diode right now to see if they carry something like this. |
