A pair of halogen 9003 LED bulbs costs $15 to $40, while LED conversion kits run $25 to $60 per pair. If you have a shop do the work, expect an additional $20 to $50 in labor per bulb. Replacing them yourself at home saves the labor cost and usually takes under 30 minutes.

The 2011 Scion xD utilizes a refined lighting configuration featuring 13 distinct bulb positions. It features an extensive lighting system powered by a halogen-based setup where a single 9003 LED dual-filament bulb handles both low and high beam duties within the same reflector. This model belongs to the mid years of the xD's 2008-2014 production span.

Can You Put LED Bulbs in a 2011 Scion xD?

Upgrading to LED is one of the most effective ways to modernize your Scion's appearance and safety profile. Since your xD uses a single 9003 LED bulb for both high and low beams, ensure your chosen LED kit is "dual-beam" compatible. This allows the LED circuitry to mimic the two-filament design of the original halogen bulb. Don't forget the Fog Light fog lights; switching these to LED can dramatically improve your visibility in adverse weather.
