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.

3, LED lights with angel tears, sporty design makes your car more air, more beautiful.


Angels tears make your car fly...?

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.

      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.
