Fair enough. But my intent here is to get all of this information packed into one easily searchable result so that the next guy that wants this information can easily find it without having to search everywhere else or ask around and waste their time. And in being the best reporter that I can be, I'd like to have actual verification from real owners, or in part of this case, engineers before I make my final written statement.

If I can get the answer I need by asking others here who may have already purchased one of these or had one already installed on their engine from the factory, it's still doing the same amount of research, just in a different way. But it has the additional advantage of being backed up by actual owners.

For instance, I know that some of the Scion tC cars had blue, lighted LED badges, but I never knew if they were OEM or aftermarket until I did some research myself. That information I was able to find without asking in any forum because at the time, I wasn't a forum member of any enthusiast car site. But now that I am, I can simply ask a question and hope that others with more knowledge may be able to answer.

Is it that difficult for people now to answer questions that they may possess accurate knowledge about, instead of referring the seeker to a search engine? I mean, this is a FORUM, right? We're here to help each other, right?
