Hey everyone,

I had a modded 05 Scion Tc. I had parted some stuff out before i sold it which included my HID set. The bulb size are 9006 and i think the Malibu is H11. What would be the easiest route to save money on putting this things on? buying different bulbs or what..??

I've taken mine off. It's a matter of removing a myriad of fasteners, but once they're loose it's a snap to remove and put back on.

I tried getting one headlight out by accessing it from the bottom up for one screw, and by bending some plastic for the top one. I finally gave up and took the skin off. Glad I did, too! It was a whole lot easier to work on both lights, and it also afforded me a look under the skin, kinda like rolln says about getting familiar with the car.

While you're there you might consider replacing the incandescent turn signals with LEDs, which is why mine came off.
That's what I want to do.. What's the turn signal bulb size..?
Fronts are 3157NA, rears are 3157 for incandescent. Use 3157 for both when ordering LEDs.

When I got mine I ordered amber to put in the front and red for the rear. Sounds redundant to have red LEDs behind red lenses, but someday I hope to replace the rear ones with the clear LTZ version and then the LEDs will be perfect. The amber and red ones are both clear until they illuminate, then they're the color indicated.

Just remember to get LED load equalizers so the flasher doesn't go spastic.
