The factory fujitsu ten CD player in my car finally carked it a few days ago, been meaning to replace it for a while so it was a good opportunity..

So I got this to replace it ^_^

Pretty good I thought, has bluetooth + USB - plugged straight in and used the same bracket holes

Only now the dash trim wont fit back without some dremel help i'm afraid

Don't really want to cut up my trim but i'm quite liking this HU...

So after spending some quality time with the headunit - I reckon i'll keep it, looks a lot cleaner than every aftermarket HU out there and the layout of the controls makes sense. Hate how the volume control is almost always on the LEFT on most HU's.

haha thanks Jus but i went to the wreckers and picked up a spare dash console thingo, broken though as most are unfortunately but the colour is a close match to the SX black.

All need now is someone to lend me some time with a dremel tool :P Anyone??

Took a few pics after a fruitful day at the wreckers

Picked up a few rear swaybar brackets to replace the one that has been broken for about a month lol.

This is new, BMC brace - might need to adjust the position a bit but it's fine for now.

Also found a custom dashmat! Wasn't too dirty when I found it too which was nice

I didn't have any adhesive velcro strips or whatever. Glue is unreliable anyway, cableties ftmfw

I really should get that lip back on...

Looking good Dave! front looks a bit empty without the lip though.

Can you feel much difference with the brace in?

..or maybe you should buy mine Jaay? :P

Thanks Jus ^_^ , I know right?? I have a fresh lip that I got off Alister (thx bro!) but I dont want to smash off the new one like i did the old one. There's so many bloody driveways that i'm sometimes forced to enter dead straight.. Life is easer without a lip but it looks ****.

The Brace: It's ok I guess but I still have rubber lines so any benefit is really muted right now. Pedal is a poofteenth firmer. Maybe lol. SS braided lines - one day, one day ;)

Dont you have braided lines?

jaay - If someone offered me a ****load ( and I mean lots ) of cash I would consider it but noone is that silly for a Corolla lol.

Also i'd have no car and there's only one other car i'd want as a replacement and it's out of reach for me right now

GT86

Fair enough then!

I think $1500 is pretty reasonable :P

Lol jokes

What would your replacement car be? Just curious.

braided lines make a fair difference, would i change them again? probably not...

Ive got those lips and a 626 lip i probably wont use, youre free to have them back if you want Dave!

I would take that once i pull all the performance bits out lol

probably a camry or magna. something cheap and reliable. I need to recuperate funds ;)

Someone knows where I can find it or what else works as replacement? I don't mind if is not oem part as far as it works 😅 I'm based in Brisbane if it makes some kind of difference Pictures attached as reference

      Can I put a 2010 bumper on my 2008 Camry ?

      I have a 2008 Camry altise and recently damaged the front bumper and i'm wondering if I can fit a 2010 sportivo bumper on to replace it. It looks like it fits I know I will need to get new headlights for it to fit but do I need to do any modifications or will all the plastic clips and screws line up ?

      Anyone else tried these seat covers ?

      these seat covers look pretty good, but I've had bad experience when trying to fit some cheaper ones I bought online - they say custom fit, anyone else tried them ? Would love to know before I buy them, thanks all https://mycustomcar.com.au/

      am2 fuse blowing

      Hello, i have a 1996 starlet The problem is when i turn the key the fuse blows, and i have been looking over the wiring and can’t find any shorts or damaged wire. The car would not crank over because of the fise blowing. I found out that if i disconnect the transponder key ecu the fuse is holding, but as soon as i connect the transponder the fuse blows. So i wonder if there is something I can try out? should i just buy a new transponder box or is it something else i could try? and is it not kinda wierd that the box is the problem? I have looked inside the box and cant see any corrosion in the box

      Toyota Celica '96 5S-FE no spark

      Hi everyone, I have spent too much time on my Celica and even my mechanic is stumped at figuring out the issue so any tips will be appreciated. Here is what has been done, immobiliser disbabled, distributor replaced, igniter replaced, EFI relay replaced, and EFI 15AMP fuse is not blown. I tried jumping E1 and TE1 in the diagnostic port to try and get a code from the CEL but it doesn't light up, I think it might be burned out so I will have to get on that. I am now clueless about what to do next, it could be the ECU but I can't find any pointers too that.
