I want to do it just because.
looking forward to your receipt of the lights and install!

Thanks. It's hopefully its only a few more days. The next time I post in this thread, it will be with triumphant pictures of shinny new parts.

I know I would if I could, but my Raven is 6 months old, way too much negative equity to roll over.

I have lights I'm happy with.
I have a great alarm system I have full keyless entry
I don't care for glowing emblems

Yes I would like the climate control center with push start but as said that's all I'd want from it rest of it is less luxurious then what I've added to my own now.

Wish Scion would listen to it's customers and allow us to add those as options. I fee like Scion REALLY drop the ball on the FRS befoe the RS came out. I love my FRS yet I am with @OICU812 on this one. Because I much prefer the BRZ HIDs over the GT86.

Sweet...will query my region pdc tomorrow. This is a must have for me. To be clear, this is just the headlights but no hid kits?

Edit 8-28-2013: Placed the order. Cross fingers hoping they get in.

Try getting a paint stick for your 10 series let alone a part they asl for your vin right away. Hence the Limited Edition.....

There seems to be a lot of questions, and an equal amount of misinformation, surrounding the attainability of Series 10 parts. Ordering these parts should not involve any trickery or insider info. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.

I had no trouble getting Series 10 headlamps through the local Toyota parts department.

Buying them is no more difficult than getting a price quote.

They keep the release series parts exclusive. Otherwise, what's the point of the limited editions?
My local Toyota parts department did not ask me for a VIN or any proof of ownership. I gave them the part numbers, they placed an order, they received said order, and I gladly paid for them.

What's so exclusive about parts that the majority of these cars leave the assembly line with?

I picked them up last night and have not installed them, but I believe that everything is included.

I'm not sure why anybody would want that paint code.
All jokes aside, the local Toyota parts department never asked me for a VIN. I called and placed an order for the parts I wanted and they arrived a few weeks later.
