Your local Toyota dealer. Expect to pay through the nose, because they aren't cheap. Like, to the tune of 3 or 4 hundred bucks for each piece, so, that times 4.

Only alternative is the Thai Hybrid Camry ones which a few here have, which are genuine Toyota, and can be had for around $350 plus shipping. These ones are slightly different to our facelift Sportivo ones in that the have a slight blue tinge and a small red section, as opposed to the Aus ones which are all clear. You have to order from RStyleRacing (or you may find some elsewhere online, but still unlikely to be from Aus) unless somebody here wants to part with their set.

It'll fit straight on. 2 Members here have installed this into theirs, however only 1 remained. :(

Go to members' rides and try looking at SecaBoy's TRD Aurion and you'll see the only TRD in Aus with the new tail-lights. :clap:

yep, after daryl telling me it was gonna cost me like $1200 for the facelift lights, i then looked at the ones from thailand...

MUCH cheaper, and imo, they suit a darker coloured car more than the straight clear ones..

one day when i'm installing the rear bumper lights (yes ingres, i still havent done it yet! haha), i'm gonna take the lights off and get them tinted slightly... give it that "smokey" look...

in my mind, i think it'll look awesome... but reality is a whole different scenario... :lol:

Motion seconded. I think they need to be a bit darker on a black car.

to be honest, they dont look too bad in real life..

as all the brissie boys can back me up on this ( i hope! )... the pics do it absolutely no justice...

it looks a LOT different in real life... :)

but in saying that, i think the "smokey" look would help make them not so "ricey" if you know what i mean... :)

either way, these lights fuqn rock!!! light/dark/whatever colour your car is... they look sick... :D

You sure got that right. The true look of these lights just can't be captured in a photo.

Boy do I know that. Such memories. I really loved that car.

As easy as unclipping the rear bumper (not removing, just uncliping the sides), then undoing the nuts on the inside of the boot that secure the lights. Once that is done, they just slide out and you can put the new ones in. 30 minutes tops.

Which side clips for the bumper? It takes me more than an hour to figure out, concluding that I have to take the bumper off. This is somehow a relief to know I dont have to. :D

Well not technically clips, but you undo the bolts that are on the ends of the bumper up in the wheel arch.

Just those on the wheel arch? I took off the ones next to the rear lights, the small covered ones that you need to pull out before you can unscrew.

Both of them... so four in total. It's basically like you are removing the bumper, but only enough to remove the lights.

      Does any one know if the trd sportivo suspension for the 2017 facelift corolla fielder fits the 2013 prefacelift version? Is the chassis the same? Thanks for the help.

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
