Where to Get HID's in Seattle/Washington Area???

I am going to trade the 2k2 in the for the 2k3 and I need a couple of places for the following.....Guys any help would be greatly appreciated

1.) Shop to buy a great set 20" rims and great tires to go with...
2.) Great Tint Shop to tint the back and front windows....And even a Place that will install the HID's while doing the tint to save me time??
3.) Great Shop to install Auto Start on my LX...
4.) I know of a place called Audio Innovations in Bellevue, Washington but it is a little to high end for me, and I think that they overcharge a shi*Load!!

ps- I don't live in Seattle anymore, but I live in Colorado Springs....but I will be buying from the dealer in bellevue...

Feasible,but there may be a fitment problem within the projector itself. The lowbeams are H1,which are quite short in length (see photo). I never tried measuring the depth of the LX projector so I can't verify if a rebased HID bulb will fit.


(not my photo,and I don't know who this person is)

Any Idea what something like that would cost?

You can find them as cheap as like $300,but the saying "you get what you pay for" comes to mind.

Will Lexus do it and provide a warranty for it? (I will pay lots extra for that peace of mind!)

They may install it,but very doubtful about a warranty unless they're the ones who sell the HID system.

i never did that on lx so i don't know. but my friend 97 m3 uses the h1 projective housing, and we purchased the h1 hid kit and it fit fine. but again, it depends on how much room inside the prjective lens i guess
