Recommended Posts

Guys, I broke the guts of my driver side headlight doing a mod. Toyota replacement is 500+.... Aurions are badged as Camry in SE Asia right? Any tips on finding after market lights from Thailand or Japan? Vendors you guys have used that I can email? Any help is appreciated.

When you say 'upgrade'. Like angel eyes??

In Thai / China, it is around that mark too, although it comes in a pair instead of just 1 side.

I'll shoot you a PM.

I could be wrong, but aren't the TRD headlights smoked chrome like the Sportivos?

EDIT: Just realized you were planning to mod them. The mid & top-spec SE Asia Camry come with HID headlights, so it will be a nice upgrade. Also, have a look at the Asian Camry Hybrid headlights (Facelift-spec, but with hybrid blue highlights.).

Cheers yeah, that's what I'm going for. V-FX pointed me in the right direction. Plan on ordering them at the end of the week. Can't wait!

Hey guys,

Looking for the headlamp which has the horizontal lines where the parker should be, I've seen this on Thai Camrys.

Is that the one spoken of here? Could you help with where to buy these.

Thanks.

In past conversations you said the mars ones were not good quality? i was talking about stock ones but if you could get OEM angle eyes from china that would be cool.

Dear GOD thats ugly........

AJ you CAN buy aftermarket STOCK thia lights.... for around 360 a set, BUT they are so shockingly cheap the projectors are plastic....... best to go buy a second hand set and have a go at modding them yourself.

They are the aftermarket stock lights i mentioned above...

They are the same as the "Mars copies" which are the "Thai" lights . Very thin plastic housings and thinner front clear cover , cheap chrome plating( rubs off with finger) and very very poor quality projectors.

What you guys gotta understand, Is that in a head light the projector is everything. The quality of the design and of the parts

of the projector unit is critical.... especially the LENS. It's about optics and projection.

If you design a good quality projector and finish it off with a cheap lens then the projector doesn't perform. Like anything... it's the sum of it's parts.

Quality clear LENS's are not cheap to produce... look @ your glasses or contacts.

If the projector doesn't perform you end up sub par lighting and uneven light lines.

TBH i do not have a problem with the thinner plastic etc of these lights, but sacrificing night VISION is a big NO NO.

And if your a driver that uses his car on darker type aus country roads where vision is a must i cannot with a clear conscience

recommend any one to use these lights.

FYI: I purchased a set of these cheaper ebay lights, thinking because i was only going to open them up to practice some mods and try a few different things.

I ended up installing them for what-ever reason,,,, within 1 day of installing them and driving at night i had them out.

pulled apart and was upgrading the projectors.

Once upgraded these lights then performed as good as factory....

Cost of lights $170 each cost of projectors $100+ each 2 days of my time to open and retrofit. $$???

Not such a bargain anymore.

Guys when buying after market head lights have a think at why they are cheap in comparison to factory .

The sum of their parts.

They are the Thai knock offs of the Mars lights, you can tell buy the amount of LED's in the DRL.

better off getting the mars ones for that price.
