I'm hoping someone here might be able to help me locate a set of right hand drive headlights for my left hand drive 2003 Toyota Echo Sedan, I've just brought it over to the UK from Canada and I'm having a hard time trying to get it on the road as it won't pass an SVA without right hand drive headlights. I've been to quite a few mechanics and keep hitting dead ends, one thought that the headlights might be the same as a Toyota Yaris T-Sport, but I had a look and they aren't quite the same shape.

I was on the Toyota Owners Club forum UK and one person suggested I try here as the Echo was also released in Australia where it would be the right hand drive model. I'm not sure if the Australian Echo is the same model as mine, so here's a photo of the same model:

If anyone can give me an information as to where I might get my hands on some headlights it would be highly appreciated.

Thanks for your time

While Toyota Echo Sedan headlights can be bought here, new headlights might cost a lot! (Seeing how they would charge AU$190 for a RAV4 driver's side wiper.)

Try wrecker yards that specialize in Japanese imports or source them from New Zealand. Ask for 2003 - 2004 Toyota Platz headlights (That's what the Echo Sedan is called in Japan.).
