Solder? You must never have heard of Toyota pins ;) Makes headunit installation very easy and completely reversible should you decide to go back to factory.
Exactly what I was going to use... but you would know that. Been using them on all radio installs since it makes it easy as plug and play. And like you said, requires no cutting of the original harness.
hmm, maybe in the new toyota's... lol. i cant remember mine having the clips. its a made 99 AE102R rolla conquest.. 96 model tho, i'm pretty sure.

you wont need to buy extra cables unless ur hookin it up to an amp. all u'll need to do is just solder the unit wires onto the stock ones.. i.e. power, earth, left and right speaker.. etc etc. just read the instructions. but yeah. you wont need extra cables if its a simple head unit swap.

I don't live in Brisbane... but any auto-electrician. Or perhaps the company you bought it from provide an installation service. I know here in NSW - JB-HIFI provide car entertainment installations...
Edit: Or - give it a go yourself with the help of a mate? =)

Just as the topic title states..
I have a Toyota Corolla Seca Conquest AE102R hatch. Will AE100 headights from eBay fit? They look exactly the same and have all the same anchor points. They are custom lights I really want to get, but the seller says "They will only fit AE100 models only" and I think to myself.. bull****, because they look exactly the same. If you could share your ideas that would be great, thanks!

I posted pics up of my green corolla. Check 'em out if you like.

Hmmm, yeah, think I'd just be after a crystal headlight with black housing, that'd be sweet as. I've got narva platinum globes in there at the moment... the blueness is cut out because of my stupid stock glass =( and i've got white narva LEDS for my parkers.

Hi,
In parallel with my last topic about tail-lights (Link: http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/inde...howtopic=22590) I'd like to know if anyone knows of where I might be able to get some custom crystal headlights for my Toyota Corolla Seca Conquest AE102R. Here's a pic>
-
Hummmm... thanks for the input guys. It seems there is none.. everywhere I've looked... And yes.. the centre panel does fade.. I was thinking of going down to the wreckers and getting a newish looking one.. but still, it would be nice to have those tail-lights.. if anyone comes across any, please let me know =)
Anyways.. thanks guys. Keep throwing in your suggestions and where some might be, links would be great =) I'm going to start a new topic about headlights for my car.. I think they should be easier to come by as I think all of the corollas from 94 to 99 have the same headlights.

Being the conquest your car should have the coloured tailgate garnish which in my opinion would look like poo if you had clear lights...
Check out twincam.org, there's a guy in South Africa that specialises in clear lights that might be able to help you out...
Search the twincam forum and you will find him, don't have a link sorry...
Hmm.. oki doke. Just to clarify, do you mean the reflectors either side of the number plate? I've attached a pic>
Edit: By the way... If anyone else knows where to get them PLEEEEEEASE tell me cos i wanna get some soon =)

Which year model metal?
It's a Toyota Corolla Seca Conquest AE102R 1999 ... Its not the New one they made that year.. it's the one they started making in 1996 or something..
Here, i've looked it up on www.redbook.com.au .. here's the link: http://www.redbook.com.au/used-cars/detail...2&silo=1300
Thanks heaps for your help =)

Hi all,
Just wondering if there's another Green Corolla on this forum, or even better a green Levin.
Great if yours is silver, red, black or whatever, but looking for green.
No particular reason, just wanting to know if i'm alone. :(
Cheers.
I have a green Corolla Seca Conquest AE102R... Started making them in '96 but its a '99 build...
I'll take some pics this weekend or something and post them up.

Yeah.. So you reckon the wreckers have custom lights? ... I've been checkin on ebay and that and found a few... but I think they're for the AE102R sedan... I have a hatch. lol. Here's a link to one of many that i've been looking at>
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...em=360144834285
If anyone has a solid understand whether there is a difference between the sedan and hatch lights, please let me know. As I have the money, but I don't wanna buy something that isn't gonna fit. Thanks guys.
Again, my car>
Model: AE102R
Engine: 7A-FE
Thanks guys,
I missed where it said "custom"
And yes, the sedan tail-lights are 100% different to the Seca tail-lights.
yeah sorry.. i forgot to write custom... up in my own little world. could anyone suggest where I could get custom ones for my seca hatch?
thanks guys

Hi All,
Corolla Seca Conquest AE102R Tail-lights, Where to get some around Gosford/Erina?
Just wondering, i've been looking at ebay and the like, modyourcar.com.au, and ssv.com.au, but i need somewhere nearby that could sell custom rear taillights for my car. Any thoughts? and where is the cheapest quality?
Thanks heaps,

Yeah true, just gotta be liberal with the electrical tape lol. But yeah, I think older models didnt have the clips. As I said before, mine's a ae102R 99, think it was one of the ones they started making in 96.. not sure.
