Lights and accessories specifically? Even interior trim? edit: mechanically I am confident parts are available. But I've just got a few things inside that I would like updated/replaced (ie worn seats, fit a gps, bleeding LCD clock ect)

Hi guys. I've got a 2004 Kluger and wondering if there's any parts from other models that are compatible with my car? Or if there's a resource that I could connect the dots to. Sorry I hope my question makes sense!

I'll jump on board with the compliments.. everyone loves compliments on their cars. Great pics and detail..!!

Love Chasers mate! Love reading the story.

Thanks to everyone for your input! I headed to Ozzy to test fit 18x8.75 +35, forgot the tyre specs. Stock struts and springs. Front was pretty flush - if not poking out a few mm. Rears appeared to have plenty of room to play with. Obviously this doesn't take into account what would happen if I were to change the springs.

Shadow chrome is probably what I would get if I were you.. (im assuming that your car in the pic?). full chrome probably would be too contrasting imo. I guess at that budget ($800), you're looking at buying 2nd hand rims or something on special at a tire shop - perhaps not even including rubber - excluding tempe/ozzy; their prices are disgusting. Additionally, you can broaden your searche for mazda, ford, nissan wheels too as they (in most cases) share the same PCD.

Thanks mate. Damn my calculations! I might have to keep the rears the same as the front (8.5") to avoid any issues. Last thing I want to do is start fiddling with the guards

Also! Judging by my initial measurements, using 1010tires and by reading other members setups, I believe the following rim sizes should fit on my aurion. ALTHOUGH I am open to being corrected. Front: 18x8.5 +35 Rear: 18x9.5 +35 I'm still trying to get my head around wheel dimensions Cheers. Karl

Hi guys. I'm looking at swapping my stock 16" wheels for a set of 18"s from a Territory. Would someone be able to rattle off what the 18" wheel specs for the Aurions? I'm hoping they're not too far from the Territory specs. I believe the territory is 7.5" in width.

I dont even know half of what you said... but im still impressed!

Pretty sure you could squeeze in a 50-55" tv in the boot. Just sayin'... Love it mate!

People just dont get it. Had a lady rest her rear drivers door against my passenger door with no hesitation whilst I was in sitting in my car. First I thought it was an accident and that she would immediately tend to it but she continued to put her bags in with the sound of her door intermittently making contact with my car. I was ******. Accidents are ok, we've all been guilty of making contact with another car, but she had no intention to avoid contact. I finally got out and stood around the front of the cars and ask if she thinks it will buff out. She looked at me, and looked my door, at me and at her door. She responded, 'it's not even touching..', just as she said that her bags fell out hitting her door resulting in a domino effect of her door hitting my car really hard All of a sudden I hear, 'WHAT THE F**K!!??' -- and at this point I'm thinking *Jeebus fking christ, I've approached the wrong woman* . Turns out to be the womans partner.. anyway, the guy was really apologetic and empathetic. He owned a R32GTR and cant stand it this type of stuff. We stood there talking about my Supra (2JZGTE) and his GTR for a good 20minutes and he gave me his details and $300 for the initial costs to repair... Ended up costing much less and I gave him the change.

Yeah, I dont think he was reading it properly. is Castle Hill Toyota 'THE' place to head to for spares?

As per title. $100 pick up preferred, $20 postage within Oz. Fully functioning. Removed due to upgrade. PM me, or text O4328O8254 Thanks, Karl

Ended up just calling Castle hill and buying a set of dark grey mats which I was told would fit.

Strong bump! Are there any features on a reverse camera that I should look out for? Anything that current owners can suggest?

I guess what I'm asking is.. what colour are your floor mats?!

Hi guys, I bought a 06/2007 Aurion AT-X with 'fake' floor mats. It wasn't genuine Toyota and therefore didnt fit correctly. Contacted the Toyota dealer here in Canberra and they said it would cost me $116 to pick up. No dramas there, I just have question about the colours. I believe the exterior colour of mine is 'Titan Silver' (which is apparently champagne/beige?) with the grey-ish (stone) interior. My initial guess of what the original floor mat colour would have been was grey/stone; so when I requested that colour the dealer said it would only fit the Prodigy and Presara. He said that the only floor mats that will fit the AT-X are black.. which I find hard to believe because it's so contrasting and I doubt that Toyota would make such a decision. lol Is this true? What colour floor mats do other ATX owners have?

I love chasers.. my internet has been shaped so all the pics arent loading.. so, until next week.. lol.

Very much 'each to their own'. I like the uniqueness and 'eccentricism' that the Rukus brings, so I see how these lights are at home on it. When I had my LS400 and 'VIP'd' it up, puddle lights were the extent of the 'suitable' undercar lighting, everything else was shape, poke/tuck of the wheels etc.. so you can imagine the horror and critique that would have received from other people who dont understand it. lol

Im not entirely sure of the locking mechanism, but I'm assuming if you're handy with a coat hanger you should be able to get it.. or get road assistance out to do it for you. After that I'm pretty sure that you can go in to the Toyota dealer, or get Toyota out - or they subcontract someone - to recode a key for you - presuming you provide them with sufficient identification and proof that it's your car, of course.

just turn the stereo up

+1 had them on my supra after a loud set of Yokahama's. So, stay away from Yokahamas

It's been a long time between drinks/toyotas.. but now I'm back. Since joining here in 2006 I have had 10 cars (literally) but have finally decided to move on from the 'rice racer' scene due to [marriage / wedding / child story]. The missus can't/won't drive manual and I was sick of babying my car/s around town and planning trips ahead of time to avoid speed bumps, driveways and un even surfaces - so I decided to move on and simplify myself. I've always been a fan of Toyota's and grew up hearing about it's awesomeness. Needless to say, my Celica, Soarer, Crown, Supra were a pleasure to drive and I can't ever imagine myself owning and tinkering anything but a Japanese made vehicle. Anyway, long story short, I bought a 2007 Aurion. I never thought I would go down the path of playing with this. It would be my daily, zero worries, economical etc. But in the 3 days of owning this I have already found larger rims, bought an aftermarket HU, looked into handling improvements and maybe perhaps regret choosing one so quickly. Fabric interior.. but worst of all, Champagne paint. I can't find any modified champagne coloured car to use as inspiration.. if you know of any please post a link

Great build... and great work on your sprays (and resprays )
