  1. m26 is polarg product code and autobarn or supercheap do not stock polarg. polarg, raybrig and piaa are the main brands that are used in asia for car tuning. all three come from japan but if you are worried about the price the quality is good.
  2. again i am saying what should be obvious. if there are no wires then how are you going to install them? either use your original wires or go to toyota to buy a new set of wires. chances of your original wires fitting 50/50 because there are different versions even if the lamp looks the same. the first picture is missing the weathershield foam. you need that to prevent water and rattles. not sure if your original one is the same size. again if it does not fit you have to improvise or order it from toyota. some are plug and play but there are different versions. sockets for the sedan cost about $100 so i dare say that the hatch would be the same. then you need to buy bulbs or use any spare ones you got.
  3. the chip stick comes with the t-color bottle. it is like a bonus item. but from anywhere like kmart autobarn
  4. mac the ripper is good too. handbrake is better i think
  5. one more thing this wheel is not light especially in 18"
  6. happens once or twice a year at selected dealers. look out in local papers or the radio.
  7. front will not fit and even with modification you will probably find gaps because of the shape e12 front is different to zze12#. that front spoiler anyhow is modelled off c-one. did you check out c-one and not like it?
  8. i got a question installed a set onto my car taken off a sportivo
  9. nice red ascent badge! i got one in blue but have not got around to putting it on anywhere mainly because i am not that fond of common badges. i wonder where the red ascent comes from. what makes the others blue?
  10. handbrake for mac. ripping is a useful tool in multimedia. sometimes you have something on dvd but want to playback without having the disc. you can rip and have the file accessible from the local disk.
  11. there are quite a few replicas of bronze or black and polished lip.
  12. i have always liked dunlop tyres and have tried the direzza 101 which has a wide pattern sort of like advan neova. i do not think you can buy direzza 101 anymore it was a parellel import and no one brings it in now. though the dunlop sport maxx does not seem to have an agressive pattern. hope they do what you want. i saw someone with the hankook r series and they look track with the wide tread shoulder. do you remember how much they were?
  13. $300 for 3 piece kit genuine is a steal. sometimes these deals come up when dealerships try to clear excess stock from their warehouse.
  14. which pipe did you get and what filter is on the end?
  15. fast like you wouldn't believe i met him years ago when the car was midly tuned. i think he was asking me about the final gear the other day :o so a lot has happened since then.
  16. expand your search there are heaps online. polarg m26 is a 12v 8w. polarg is japanese and i am using them for parkers for driving bulbs i am on piaa. though the bulb looks blue the colour is white. if you still cannot find them send me a pm and i can help you find a set.
  17. i have never needed to use chemicals to take anything off my car. only needed to use stuff for cleaning up after. i have taken off everything from badges to side moulds, vinyl and window tint. everything done with a hairdryer.
  18. vinyl is easy to remove. you can do it cold but it is better to warm it up either leave your car out in the sun for an hour or heat it up with a hairdryer. take your time with pulling it off as rushing it can catch too much and pull a patch of duco from your panel. give it a polish and wax afterwards. if it is on glass then you can use metho to give it a good clean to clear away all glue residue. to clear glue residue from any painted panels use anything paint safe such as bug and tar remover.
  19. use your existing wires but what i am saying is if the sockets cannot screw into the designated holes then you either have to order a set of wires from toyota or modify your exisiting sockets by cutting off their grooves so they can fit into any of the holes
  20. no wires but depending on the version you may need sockets suited to that lamp. always try your existing sockets if they fit before you go out and order the sockets needed as they are not cheap. you can however if your existing sockets do not screw into the lamp holes is to cut the grooves off the sockets so they are smooth and then they would fit into any holes. they would be loose so you would need to silicone them down. when you need to change a blown bulb you would need to cut the silicone to be able to replace the bulb.
