sorry i don't know anywhere in Toronto, i'm in California. you probably already know but in case you don't, make sure that when you install it, you have the installer set your ECU setting to "xenon present". this is critical to your electrical system as whole, as well the working of the bixenons

You can't change the settings yourself... you need a Stardiagnose system to do it.

Qin Qin, just as big sis states, you cannot set the interal xenon requirements by your self. You will have to have it set by a dealership or someone who has the stardiagnose system. But if you have the bi-x installed before you ask the dealship to change the setting, they will have to change it for you as you headlights won't work and its a driving harzard for you if they let you out of there facility with them not working......... Just need to ahve someone install the lights before hand. good luck......

Ohh yeah maybe you are also having trouble with the dealerships because they will not order the lights for you. You should purchase them through big sis. She will have them for your car for a better price than the stealerships!
