So has anyone had an issue in changing the high beams to HID? is there anything i should know?

I know you want to save some money, but is it worth it if you install it incorrectly and in result hurt or kill someone?

So it looks like that i won't have any trouble then i like a white light as an added plus it won't draw lots of attention.

Thanks for the solid advice rebz, I am looking into it since the low beams are quite dull. I have tried 3 different bulbs with little success.

No problems till now What do you mean till now? problem with the police or getting a pink slip done?

Still have not done it, been a little under the weather this week. The one thing that still puzzles me is why does the owners manual say the hb3 size when research on this forum i have found that not be correct. Also for the people that have changed to HID do you have any trouble at rego time getting a pink slip passed?

I'm up for a meet.

Thanks going to pick up a second hand pair of headlights and give it a go :)

I guess just personal choice why i want to change the bulb, I did go to a shop and they say you need a hb3. It's not the case as we know you can't get the HIR1 in any other colour and most shops don't even stock it, they can order it in though. If i was going to mod the bulb base how would you do it?

Thanks, Luke you are the man that's what i was looking for. Is it easy to modify? I would like to maybe get some sportivo headlights, would they fit.

* BUMP * Could someone please help me what are my option for changing my high beams only.

* BUMP * Bumping this old post since i still can't find an answer, if DJKOR was here i would though, bro come back online! :P anyway i am having trouble in changing to some HB3 or 9005 bulbs they don't seem to click into place in the holder. the owners book say's that they are HB3 in the high beams but it comes with HIR 9011 bulbs? if anyone could help me that would be great, if you help me ill give you an itunes or xbox or psn card!! I am going insane trying to find and answer!

ill have a look, but in the mean time i have found something that i have not seen any where at all on the forum and seem like it could be good: http://au.bmcairfilters.com/index.aspx there is different ones there varying on price and features ill send of an email and find some info, spread the world it might be promising!!!!

So if anyone is interested in doing any mods say a cold air intake or typhoon than and is in NSW then take this into account: this is off the NSW epa website, FiltersWhen fitting your vehicle with a pod-type air filter you must ensure the fitting does not cause an increase in noise from the air intake system. The EPA considers that this type of modification is acceptable when the air filter element is effectively encased or boxed-in. So as long as it's in closed than it's fine, and yes you can get defected for it. not saying you can't put one on but if you want it to be legal keep that in mind. how would you fit it in the air box? anyway?

I have that coming in the mail, how do you do swap the butterfly?

Hey all, I am going to have a go at modding the stock air intake to allow more air to enter and better sound. only because it seems more fun and to learn about the car but also there is more rules here about adding a different filter as it needs to be in a box. any tips before i start things i should look out for? ill post updates and pics if anyone''s interested. - AJ

Mainly because like the NT and Tasmania, WA isn't really much of a state. Ha!

Hey guys would anyone be keen on maybe doing a meet up, i do realise that the Sydney one is coming up but not everyone can travel down. so is there anyone that would be interested?

Anyone?

Hi, I want to replace my headlights to a different colour and brightness i have done the low beams but the high beams i am having the most trouble. the problem is that they are HIR headlights while are ok they are too bright and don't work well in the rain (or at least for me)and when i come to a any street sigh i am blinded. i try replacing them with HB3 which the book stated but don't seem to fit and don't work correct. Is there any way to get these bulbs to fit or do i have to replace the hole assembly? if so where would the best place to get them from? i did see the mar performance ones but seem a bit pricey.

Considering getting this when i get the money, is it really that easy to install?

what i mean by the headlights are different is the bulb size is different, as i went to get a more whiter light and the bulb didn't fit.

Hi every body, Recently joined the forum and have been reading but can't find the answers. I have recently just got a 07' Aurion ATX and one of the rear taillights has a small crack, I want to replace it with a one from a different model maybe a sportivo or zr6 assuming that they will fit. Want genuine but they would cost a lot from toyota locally. does anyone have a idea where i could find them? Also the headlight bulbs are a Hir1 (HIR BULBS) for the high beam and i can't seem to find any that are more white in colour or am i stuck with the default bulbs for the high beam. Thanks in advance - Andrew
