I'm looking for a supplier of black tail lights for the sedan, all i can find is the hatch ones, its frustrating.

Or would it be easier tinting parts of my originals (stock)

Let me know,

I think there are different sedan tail lights available o/seas (Hong Kong or Singapore I think) They're similar to the JDM hatch lights, so the difference between them and the AUDM ones is that where the amber/yellow indicator lense and reverse lense is on the the AUDM ones, they have three horizontal white lines if you can picture that.

Good Luck getting them though.

Cheers for the info people.

And ive tried most of the web sites i could search for and no lights, the $450 ones are way overpriced.

I might buy some black vinyl, take the lights out and put it on the inside of the lens, if thats possible, i havent taken the lights out b4.

And do the same for the fronts, and then ill have some cheap custom eyelids too.

I like to do things my own way :D

tail lights for sedan i have a set in melb if anyone is interested. never used. i can tell you why it costs that much. firstly it is jdm so you should expect $150-$200 per lens for brand new. secondly you need sockets and you will need 8 per side since there is an extra brake light at the top of the lens. jdm sockets will cost another $100. original sockets from zze122 will not fit as toyota tooled the grooves differently and you would only have 3 sockets per side (not 4 for jdm)

with tinting you can go professional and have any panel beater do it by spraying acrylic with a touch of black then clear coating it and baking. or you can do it yourself if you are good making it even with a can of smoke paint from autocar shops.

i doubt you can stick vinyl on the inside of the lens as it is moulded with reflectors and patterns there is no flat surface. you can stick on the outside but watch out if you aim to wrap the entire lens it is a curved surface. if i was going to stick vinyl on the outside i would colour code it. although strange people use black stockings and wrap the outside of lens.

dont think this place was mentioned earlier, maybe its one of the places jase (eggbert) was mentioning b4... but penrith toyota are apparently selling "all red" sedan tail lights

"New products: for the current model sedan we will be getting in some different tail lamps, they are all red. Will have pics soon."

i may be going down there this week to enquire about some other parts.

(depends when i finish my assignments for uni - GO UWS! GO!)

ill ask bout the sedan tail lights as well if anyone would like to know.

UPDATE!

Went to penrith Toyota Parts to ask about the stuff they got on their website..

(ie. booster bodykits, front end from HK (i think tayles' frontend?) and the sedan tail lights.)

the guy shook his head n said "weve been trying to take that website offline because its ANCIENT... outdated"

recommended i go to castle hill toyota for aftermarket stuff! how crap iz that!?! can anyone confirm whether or not Castle Hill has this stuff? i seriously doubt they even know bout the booster kit...

sorry guyz!

so yea...

DONT GO TO THE PENRITH TOYOTA WEBSITE.

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      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.

      Android auto

      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.
