I am currious as to why the internet price is so much higher than the retail price... usally its the other way around... I would suggest calling or emailing them about the price, shipping, group buy discounts, etc

sorry neverstop, but iono where you shop...420 is VERY MUCH cheaper than retail. retail price for just the lowbeams (which he's talkin about) is is 318.07 EACH. if you don't believe me, i can take a picture of a reciept i have for them. if you do the math, that is 636.14 for a pair PLUS shipping. and 420 < 626. um, however, through toyotaworld.com, you get the lights for 238.55 each, coming to a nice 477.10 for the pair. i got mine for that, and ended up being 491.10 shipped to me. i'm still waiting on the high beams tho..they need to FUGGIN HURRY! -John- -------------------- |

now that I go back and look at it I realize what you mean about the retail price that is for just one and not both.... I just glanced at it and then started looking at other stuff.

If you check out the Group Buys on the Celica Files site, there's a guy called "roo" who is selling the complete set of JDM 6th Gen Projector lights, hi's and low's for $750 + shipping.

yeah, um, if you wanna save 20-30 bucks do that, but w/ toyotaworld.com you can get the lights a hell of a lot quicker. i know all the people that got the JDM taillights from roo are still waitin on those, and that was a couple months ago that that GB went down. -John- -------------------- |

yeah, i got the projectors, and they are sexy as hell on the road, and of course, when hittin a bump, the oncoming cars get to see the beams flash. hehe, and yeah, i have hyperwhite H1's in mine. the main reason that the projectors are 100% better, is because um, my brackets were broken on my stock headlights. so ya know. the price was slightly justified. -John- -------------------- |

how do you take out your stock lights. Not just the bulb. I'm talking the whole thing. I just received the low beam projectors and I can't seem to figure out how they go in.

You have to take off your front bumper completely in order to take out and put in headlight assemblies. There's no way to get them out or put them in without doing this. If you need help taking off the front bumper just let us know. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

did that group buy go down? I thought that was just for the tails. I didn't even know that he could get the projectors until after Christmas, at least that is waht he initially said. Anyway, how can you say toyotaworld is faster when you don't even have your highs in yet? |

yeah good point. they keep gettin held up. i expected them before christmas. i was going on the assumption that if you bought them way back when i made that post, they would get here sooner than when they got here from teh group buy...seeing as how a lot of people that were in the taillight group by a few months ago still haven't even gotten their taillights yet. that's all i'm basing my comment on. as for the group buy on the headlgiths, i think it will be in january. not sure though. -John- -------------------- |
