  1. aahah i had the same reaction.

    oh i see, i don't even know where rawson is -__

    yeah they told me i pulled up not too long after, they were like "your car was in that spot 10mins ago but it wasn't your car"

    then they told me they saw you and maggie and it made sense

    you should come out for a cruise with us again :)

  2. spotted the same silver tivo down the street from the cop shop parked in the same place o.O plates JET-XXX

    always see that stivo parked there. always the same spot with the same windshield sun shade thing. maybe they work nearby

    also see DUM-81Y go down my street like daily onto polding

    yeah always see DUM-81Y, seen a girl drive it too ooh anyways

    i never see you anymore william LOL where are you hiding ?

    i think i spotted you Tiet on cummberland a few days back with ur gf (wdf u live on hamilton? how come ive never seen you lols i live off hamilton)

    oh did you? lol then i guess it was your silver sportivo going the opposite way? lol

    well i live a road off hamilton, i live in the small streets between westfields sport high and thorny road lol

    where abouts do you live?

  3. update, i have finally done it :D

    took me about 4 hours, and i didn't silicon the bulb holder in, just made sure that the light bulb can pass through the gap and thats it :D

    instructions were a major help, and i recommend this mod :lol:

    Evo

    ahah gw evo, i want to see pictures!

  4. sweet as. that cures my worries!

    now if the god damn x port company would screw me around id have my car to work on by now!

    ahah bad luck dude, though do what i did xD i waited a week or so for my car from the seller, so i basically just gathered the things i was going to do to the car. the day my car came in most of the stuff went in xD

  5. My Mate ha d a similar issue in a wagon.. the rubber would get sticky or something... pull the lever so you know the latch is released and then open and then slam on of your other doors.

    the pressure of the air being force inside the car will hopefully pop it open

    i even dont hv the lever in my car.......................................

    only one lever which is the fuel inject door.

    :(

    for our cars we don't have the pull lever to open the boot, we only have the trigger to open it on the boot, i like it like that :)

  6. spotted a silver pre-facelift sportivo lowered with a huge cannon parked near the cop shop at wetherill park

    hmmm you in my area >_< ive seen the black prefacelift parked at canley before :) and i live near hamilton road >_<

    though i've never seen you before :)

    i frequent cabra and canley, live in wetherill park though

    read that and you'll be able to tell me apart :) plates atm AUH-XXX

    spotted a black pre facelift on mimosa road yesterday with c-one wingtips, blacked out tail lights, grille, eyelids, the works really. looked sleek as.

    yeah lol i think i've actually seen you car parked in cabra, it was a few months ago so i'm not exactly sure :)

    i frequent cabra, canley, fairfield, fairfield west, wetherill park :)

    i live in ffld west and work at wetherill park in stockies

  7. yeah but the genuine comes with all 4 :) i say the rears look plain if you only have them at the front,

    yeah and i would of thought you could go to any toyota but when we were looking for them apparently castle hill was the best place to go

  8. you can get this striaght from castle hill toyota, it will cost you around $186 depending on australian dollar. this is postage including straight to your door. you can try start a group buy but the guy at toyota that my friend got it from was the same guy that spillage talked to, and i think he had problems with a large number of buys at once

  9. Hey Tiet could you please write how you at least connected it up?. I'm assuming you tapped a conductor, but which one??? Would really like to know..

    is it simply wiring the parker light wire to the third conductor of the dual filament bulb? probably have to drill a hole behind the empty socket to feed in the parker wire.

    post-8229-1231650983_thumb.jpg

    lol chicken pretty much spot on with that, but we just wired it up from the other conductor, at first we were thinking about wiring it up from the plug then realised it would be annoying to take it out, and realised it would be so much easier to wire it to the pre-existing conductor

    and im pretty sure i could of made it heaps cleaner and neater, by shorterning wires and smoothing the plastic down

  10. how did you get them fitted in the rear?

    id rather not cut tbh!

    have you seen the rear doors yet? at first i tried to re-modify the black pods on the door, i just siliconed the bracket plate onto it, but found out we were not able to fit the trim back on.

    so basically we took off the pods by drilling into the pop rivets, bought a wood spacer, put it in place, drilled new holes and put the speakers in lol

    if you don't really want to do this then stick with 5.25"

    Hey Tiet could you please write how you at least connected it up?. I'm assuming you tapped a conductor, but which one??? Would really like to know..

    first i just want to say this is only for now until i get time to create a proper conductor+clip and i would not recommend this i just really wanted brake+parks lol, if you choose to copy this then it is at your own free will and i do not hold any responsibilities for any damages or problems it may cause. sorry about the bad pictures they looked better on my phone when i had taken them.

    at first my friend tried to bend the original conductor to the side, since it sat in the middle, but we found out it bent it too much and was not touching the bulb, it was getting dark and we just wanted to get it done, so here is what we done, i won't put this in the work submission section since its pretty bodgey but still looks good in the end lol xD

    first we found out a 21/5w i think it was would not clip in so my friend melted slits in each side to lock/hold the bulb in.

    plate3.jpg

    my friend did the same like the others and connected wires to the brake and park he then melted a hole in the back of the extra bulb section and pulled the wires through.

    plate5.jpg

    if you try im pretty sure you could bend the conductor to sit in the right position, but we just soldered the wires straight onto the bulb, i am aware this would make it annoying to change the bulb, as im pretty sure i would get flamed for doing

    plate4.jpg

    then i just taped everything together and was ready to put it back in

    plate1.jpgplate2.jpg

    again this is what i chose to do, i do not recommend this method, i would rather you add a second conductor and sit it in place beside the conductor already there

    please don't flame at me for this method of choice lol >_<

  11. lol i would write up how to do it? but i don't think it was the best way xD i intend to fix it up in the future though

    @ Brad-dreama - i went with a clarion 7" touch, with twin 12" kewood subs, a reponse and soundstorm amp, and 4 6 1/2" JBL Splits for each door, the speakers were on special

  12. i am not sure but i think i am the first to have JDM Stlye 05 Rear Taillights with Brake and Parkers :) (correct me if i am wrong sorry xD) all thanks to my friend flek, tracy, yang and sam (i dropped the tail light nut into the land of no return. This was the section inside the rear bumper. He stuck his hand down there and found the nut lol)

    it was suprisingly easy to change my prefacelift taillights to the facelift ones, the wires pop out of the plug as clips and clip right into the new one :o and the wires pretty much match up so horray for me xD

    Though it is not the safest wire up and took some modification to the bulb plate holder xD future modifications will be done for the extra light, i will need to make a new set of conductors for the extra light
