Source/evidence? It's not on the website and the window sticker says "Distributor installed options" which equals "dealer add-on" as far as I can tell.

I honestly didn't care for them at first but they look "ok". When you see them in person they do kind of grow on you but I just hate the fact that they are so useless. Hopefully I can get some OE fogs or possibly one of those break cooling kits. They do look REALLY cheaply made when you get up close also.

I have a set of these on my car that I installed and I absolutely love them. They remind me a lot of the Merc lights on the bottom... but who knows maybe they got those from pep boys too

Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

They are regional/port installed LED driving lights not dealer installed if they show up on the window sticker.

My dealer's website has them for $269.99.

Semantics. They're not installed at factory, they are installed at the behest of your regional Scion inventory whatever. They say that so they can avoid being accused of "dealer markups" for useless shit but your dealer rep is making the requests so it's just a shell game.

I even had one salesman tell me "there's nothing I can do, the bumper applique, bespoke, wheel locks, and trunk mat are all installed at factory we have zero say in what we get."

I didn't say they were installed at the factory.

In my area it's done at Southeast Toyota/region which is in Jacksonville Florida.

Oh and btw Southeast Toyota prints the window sticker like all other regions do.

I have similar LED DRL but I got them from a vendor on here and had F-T install them for me, all for less than what the dealer is charging. I never heard of there being OEM versions of this either.

Also, i agree... they are pretty useless but for me, I wanted them for looks.

No, but you implied that the dealer wasn't responsible for the vehicles on their lot.

We fundamentally agree, like I said, semantics.

The dealers are not responsible for forced shippments from the regional distributor but all other orders yes they are responsible for those and the dealer add on crap.

That's why you order a FR-S like I did as not to get all of the over priced crap.:happy0180:

Rather have fogs. Look much better then the little LED strips.
