So I'm a happy camper now with the 10 series headlights installed. I went to Auto Tuned as Zom had recommended (thank you Zom by the way) and Young (the owner) and Robin (intern guy) knew their resource and got it through quite quickly aside from the intruders (customers and phone calls).

I've dealt with 3 local shops here in LA, but these guys made me feel as a "normal" human being. Most well-known shops makes you feel very unwelcome and do not like to deal with you if you're not exactly sure what're you're doing. Well, that's why we all go to shops and have our beloved cars worked on by the professionals who knows exactly what they're dealing with. Moreover, they tend to treat you like crap if it's something not worthwhile to them.

Young (the owner of the shop) treated me as if I'm a student and really took his time explaining what to expect out of each modification step and how things operate. In the end, I was a bit confused still (Afterall, I'm a noob) with the technical matters he had explained to me but no other shop would be so kind enough nor they would be willing either because frankly time is money for them.

The process took LONG ENOUGH but honestly it probably could've been finished faster without the intruders. They work as if they are working on their own car.

Indeed it was a far drive, but in the end, I went home quite comfortably with no worries by how exceptionally friendly/good people these guys were.

If anyone is wary about doing mods to their car or looking for that one particular ideal tuning shop Auto Tuned it is. They only have 2~3 guys working so be PREPARED to wait, but if you want quality service/work then it's worth the patience.

By the way, in case if anyone didn't know, Young is the runner for the 2013 Scion Tuner challenge (the teal TC). Very awesome/ super nice guy! Robin is an intern but he also was super friendly!
