  1. same here... mines due to alot of start stop for traffic and lights... pain in the butt to have to go through city traffic...
  2. it looks like it is pre-wired and ready to be plugged and play... any thoughts from anyone else?? camry owners with foggies... can anyone advise the exact bulb type for fog lamps?
  3. Thanks for your reply whip, i know my camry aint no 350z but i wanted a CAI for the noise factor and looks too! I just dont want to install it and having buzzers and all that stuff going off and then other things going wrong (when in actual fact there isnt anything wrong. I remember reading about someone installing CAI on there 07 camry I4 and some stuff like that happend. Still 70-30 with getting the CAI done, if anything this mod will be done in the new year before uni kicks off again. buddy! man, for the several hundred bucks ya gona spend on a cai, might as well spend it on a good exhaust set up and a panel filter :) audio satisfaction from the panel filter probably will not match the cai/sri tho! PS: how did exams go??
  4. anyone has any experiences with vinyl wraps done on interior or exterior? wats the feedback?? wanna get it done on my interior, anyone noe of anyone/anywhere i can go in Melb/VIC?? thanks!
  5. i dont think that set up was a low and super low mix but super lows all around... i went with that thus raised the question. hence, i cannot imagine what it would have been like if i did go with the lows front and SL back option which i was considering since the stock height was significantly higher at the back.
  6. dropped 50mm front and back dude... since i last asked the question, springs seem to settle a lil and the diff is not that obvious... duno maybe its just me and psychological.
  7. you will get heaps of hits when you google something along the lines of "wheel repair melbourne"... depending on damage, you will be quoted anywhere from $120-180 a wheel. cheapest place i've found is Coburg Wheel Repair... mates have used them and got good results: 27 Audrey Ave Coburg VIC 3058 (03) 9354 4641
  8. Have a look at the following links. I'm yet to try either of the methods as I haven't had the time to get around to it: http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=302140 http://www.meguiarsonline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=37655 hmmm... i literally tried vaseline but was kinda unsuccessful... anyone noes of any polishing products suitable for interior plastic trims? thanks...
  9. hi all, i've read about products you can use to get rid of swirls etc on the outside. i was just wondering if there is any product that might work the same way for coloured plastics in the interior cabin of a car? this is not clear perspex plastic i am talking about, but those coloured pieces of plastic moulded areas normally found around the dash or gear shift area. thanks!
  10. how do you actualli adjust your low beam higher, lower, side to side? i'm guessing ya need to access the projectors inside the headlamps? I dont think anyone is recommending that HID kits should be installed on low beams rather than the normal driving lights but people usually install them for low beams. I dont think people will usually get 55w HID kits as you might risk frying you wiring. You are able to adjust your low beam higher,lower and side to side. You buy 1 relay harness for 1 set of lights. This explains why it is recommended to use a relay harness. This info is from this website. Hope this explains it. :D
  11. I just ordered a 8000K H4 kit off ebay for $75. I am thinking of installing it myself on to my 02' Camry. I just want to ask do I need to use a relay switch connected directly to the battery or just go with plugging in the ballasts to the OEM connector and running the two xenons without having to directly connect them to the battery or relay switch? im guessing the two ballasts just triggered using the oem connector is enough to do the job. Let me know if i am wrong. thanks i too would like to find out from you guys with HID installations if you use a relay or a just a direct connect from ballasts to oem connectors... will it fry anything??
  12. I've heard good things bout Donallans... but i got my rims from Widetread Tyres based out at Frentree Gully and Lilydale though. Very helpful guys who are honest and reasonably priced... imho anywayz :)
  13. yeah, i did notice that... but i cannot imagine how big the difference is and there i was getting worried the back will not be lowered enough... turns out its the front with the problem
  14. hi all, i got my gen 6 camry lowered bout 1-2 months back and it didnt realli occur to me until i was looking at it properly the other day that the gap between my wheels and the car in front is larger than the back. in fact, it looks kinda weird. i recall whie running on stock the gap at the back is MASSIVE compared to the front and after lowering, the gap behind seems minimal but the front the gap is still pretty pronounced. running on 18" and lowered with kings super lows... any thoughts on why this is so?? will install some aftermkt shocks like a set of konis fix the probem or am i stuck with the problem unless i go adjustable coilovers?
  15. schweeet! its universal aint it?? or s it specific to car make?
  16. i am in need of some replacement boot liner clips (if thats what its called). its those things that hold in place that furry grey materal attached under the boot cover hiding all the lighting stuff. Gen 6 camry btw... <_<
  17. yeah, changing them all to whitest possible globes i can get my hands on mate :)
  18. That is correct. It is a 31mm festoon bulb. That is the wattage. In layman terms, it's basically the brightness. With 31mm festoon bulbs, you can usually find them in 10W. That will be fine to use. Basically you don't want to go any higher than that because it will produce more heat and is not so friendly on the plastic light assembly. All car bulbs will be 12 volts. It is a 16W bulb with a T10 bulb style base (actually called a T15 bulb). This is what it looks like: If you go to Repco or anything like that, the NARVA product number is '17631'. A 3 minute job. Just take out a few clips that hold the boot lid liner in place and you can then access the bulbs. Something similar to this (first few photos): http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/inde...mp;#entry285229 cheers mate.
  19. hi all, i'm in the midst of changing over as many globes as i possibly can while i am in the mood for it... just done my interior personal lights coz thats relatively easy to identify (same as parkers). next on the list is the cabin lights... i noe its a festoon double end type globe... just wondering if gen 6 camry owners the exact size?? is it 31mm? also, it states in the user manual 8W... how does that equate in terms of volt... any magic number i shouldnt exceed?? following that... reverse lights... it says wedge type 16W... any idea what i need?? would it be a pain to change that reverse lights out (ie... as bad as parkers??) BIG BIG THANKS!
  20. looks wicked! dude... i need one in my life... gota find me the proper link and hook me up pronto! ;)
