Quality Projector Headlights for 2009...

Does anybody make a quality projector headlight configuration for the 2009 Yaris LB? If no is the answer, does anybody know if there are companies considering making one. One thing that this car needs for sure is a lighting upgrade. Thanks...

Don't think there is one for the 2009's atm. It might have been asked before, but i would guess there would be ones made sometime this year by the same companys who made the 06-08 ones. Because i think the 2009 model just came out in some places around the world. Like in Thailand only a few months ago.

hahaha....quality and aftermarket dont mix.

you can make your own, with hella's 90mm projector which is about the best you can buy. they're 90 bux each over at ralleylights.com and you can get brackets and wiring harnesses....they use an h-7 i think or an h-9, and you can get hid in that bulb as well.

look up Camelll's threads on his retrofit for his sedan.. not plug and play, but far easier than hacking up the stock headlight...

Just curious as to why this got moved to the "cosmetic modifications" forum as this is intended to be a performance modification? I think that most everybody agrees that the Yaris suffers from poor factory lighting.

performance involves engines/transmissions...

lighting is NOT a performance upgrade....sure you can throw the word performance in there but your talkin about lighting performance, not car's performance

uh....ok. Lighting is not a performance upgrage to you but how about the thousands who make a living selling lighting performance upgrades? Semantics I suppose? I know one thing it is not....and that is a cosmetic upgrade.
