id say yes, since i know others in this forum have bought aftermarket US corolla mirrors from a US based ebay trader and they fit with the help of an auto electrician.

(ie. RME1s good old grey goose)

spotted what looked like YDOIT4 driving past me @ mt druitt 2day this afternoon.

was black, black altezzas, black sunroof, wingtips, kit etc.

looks as though the actual button would be placed somewhere around the dash within the drivers reach. im only guessing, but it makes sense, since other cheap techy aftermarket stuff like immobilizers, subwoofer levels, neon light switches etc usually have enough wire to reach into the front drivers area.

this ebay item says works with "any car or van". regardless of hatch or sedan, whatever. id say youd need to do some modifications (ie. cutting) to the door to create space for the solenoid, since it looks as though you cant just bolt this on to the hatch door.

its doable, but it looks like too much DIY guess work involved, all this work so you can can be lazy later on?? probebly wont work after a while... but yea if youre game to give this a go, best of luck.

if you want something that opens and closes, i suggest an actuator mechanism of some sort.

*cough* just vomited in my mouth

what i mean is yea do you just push a button on the kluger and it shuts the door?

is that what the kluger rear door does? it goes down when you tell it to?

anyone had a closer look at the kluger door? what mechanism is actually pushing the door out? im guessing its only the central locking + a solenoid to push it out.. cant be too complicated

after 30 second search on ebay i found this: Item number: 200223014662. buy it now price $29.95 + 12.95 postage.

looks like a kit you could probebly get from jaycar or at least buy the individual parts @ jaycar... its a simple solenoid job with a switch.

hope this helps guys!

3 spotz to report-

thursday night (lastnight)

CRU222 - white rolla, parked a couple spaces down from me @ westfield mtdruitt... and on the way out, black/darkblue facelift rolla on yellow number plates and green p plates... had eyelids, aftermarket front bar, aftermarket mirrors with indicators... full bodykit? not sure since i only saw it from the front. this was also upstairs carpark at westfield mt druitt.

then today around 4pm, in mt druitt again, driving past 7eleven towards the roundabouts... nice metallic dark red corolla (the stock colour) with the chrome altezza tail lights.

i often daydream of doing this exact mod on my corolla...whenever im stuck in the car, parked somewhere i think of doing it but not unless someone else has done it first... thanks for sharing! 10/10!

i still think theres a big question mark over whether this was recovered.

i dont understand the logic in "if he hasnt signed on, then it prob means his found out".

personally i wouldnt believe it unless i heard otherwise

Forgot about that :P my bad

+ you'll probably get a faster answer if you PM aznpsuazn ;)

I did my homework on that 2. Looked pointless 2 msg Aznpsuazn since he hasnt logged on since around the time the thead in question was still active. Just thought theres a chance a mate of his could be an active tocau member and give us all an update? Just acting in the interests of the other members wondering d same thing.

if you take a closer look at that thread mate, it is closed.

peep this - go to ebay and search this: 190220634630

a couple years back i was considering a HDD head unit for my corolla but i somehow forgot about it after i began researching options for carputers.

theyve been around for a while now, this head unit is an ok example of what you could possibly get.

hope this helps!

DUUUUUUDE!!!

That is pretty much what I'm after.

The only downside to that model is the lack of physical CD support. But thats spot on. I wonder how the interface is, though...

Oh, and it turns out the new Lancer/Evo X is sporting a 30gb audio player - integrated with what Clarkson himself describes as "the most effective" touch screen SatNav he's ever used...

my head unit has usb which means i can hook up my flash drive... its got dvd/cd but honestly, i only use that for barney and hi-5 to keep the kids happy. all my mp3s/vid.clips are in the flash. that means my music would never skip.. and most of my music is in the form of mp3. i dont see any sense in burning in the head unit... its like twice the work if you ever burn on your pc in the first place.

im wondering bout the car in this thread- http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/inde...=14881&st=0

forget the crap that went on in that thread, is there any news? was the car recovered?

spotted a white Kluger @ plumpton shops last night - xYO81x i think? lol

yea i know who you are :P

i keep forgetting to fry the egg to go with it. theres egg on the package! stupid me shoulda at least made it look like the picture for once! personally i dont mind my migoreng with some hot n fresh toast.

*just plain - no butter, its especially good for just wiping off the saucy bits off the plate with the bread when theres no noodles left (i got that from my grandfather)*

anyhoo, personally I like to cook em for less than the 2 minutes because i hate really soft noodles. like a bit of firmness you know? and yea i cant stand eating it if the water is totally drained... the noodles stick together real quick and its like eating strings made of rubber bands, so i intentionally let a bit of the boiling water onto the bowl..

kinda kills your cravings for migoreng when you buy a whole box... i get through almost half within a week before i say to myself i cant eat anymore.. least until theres nothing fresh in the fridge.. its always good in an emergency!

cant go wrong with 2 migoreng packs and your pretty much full!

QUESTION:

What do you eat with your migoreng? What food best accompanies such a delicious dish??

gday all,

how much does it cost you at you accountants to get a tax return?

my accountant charges around $70-72? is that standard?

my dad said it was smarter to do it through the accountant than using the tax pack (diy), coz if you get audited you will have to show all your paperwork from the last 7 years, and if you have an accountant, theyd be able to do all that for you.

mi goreng.. the only 2 minute noodles that tastes like a meal! maggi can learn a thing or 2 from these noodlez!

all you fools who buy em at woolies are getting ripped off too! go the asian groceriez! why buy 1 or 2 packs for 2 bucks or whatever when a whole box is 7-8 bucks???

man dont get me started on migoreng, that stuff is like corn flakes... you can go without eating it for ages but when you get to eat it again, you get hooked.. b/fast lunch dinner snacks any excuse to drown yourself in them noodlez... sucks my stomach cant handle too much of that red sauce no more.

wb, keep out of trouble from now on eh?

gday, ive got the chrome ones on my corolla.

i did ask the autoelectrician who was installing the tail lights if it was possible to wire up the fog lights with the brakes, but i discussed it with the autoelectrician and we decided against it since the lense in the foggies would have probebly blind any car that came up behind me! the lense in the foggies wouldnt spread the light out, it looks as though the lights would shine straight into the car behind me and cause other drivers to get annoyed at me.

anyone else notice this when they wired the foggies up? how do the foglights look when lit?

might wire them in depending on what is said on this thread... interesting topic - always wondered this, but never bothered to post it.

gday,

im actually looking to eventually buy one of these.. i saw an 03 automatic avensis in the trading post website for under $15000! looks perfect for a growing family..

how well does it drive? any good/bad points about drivability? steering? breaking?

preparing assessments for year 10 is more important for me atm. :P

anyhoo, back on topic?! geez how good is that c-one stuff now ay? too damn expensive for me at the moment. who do you contact to get sum anyway?

yea sorry i meant the owf forums.

as for my sig... ill change it when time permits. im too busy preparing stuff for work.
