hi guys...

i'm looking for some brighter head lights for a Toyota Previa...
and i don't even know where to start...

i'm thinking HIDs?

do they make them for this car?

thinking of projectors?

...is there a way to buy this stuff for a mini-van...like we buy for our celies?

anyway, lookin' for your reponces!

thanks,
snapshotgt

well it porbably has a small aftermarket, but I'm sure you can put HID's in it, that would be the biggest help, projectors is a bit much unless your really trying to fix it up. if you just want it a little brighter try getting some silverstars. I think it uses 9004, thats nothing special.

the easyest way to check if a car has an aftermarket supply is ebay it, if you get something more then generic parts you can go from there.

it has a tiny aftermarket as far as i can see...

thats why i was wondering if there was something on like toyotaworld (or something like that)?

...any JDM parts? (websites)

....i've searched the web....just need a little more help!

thanks guys,

well wherever you can find em really, you can e-mail this guy (ajabraham@gmail.com) and ask him for a set. thats the same guy who supplied the HID group buy, where I got mine. there about 250 bucks a set though.

I second the silverstars; very nice/practical lights without breakin the bank.

I can break the bank on this...i want to do what is best - - HIDs - - - but if you tell me that silverstars are just as good...?...well i'd save the money...

anyway, everybody that reads this thread, and knows something...POST!!! biggrin.gif

My next question....Why do you want one of these vans? What is appealing/attractive about them?

The engine is mounted sideways under the car and some of them have a supercharger... =D

This is not my van...it's my parents...and it is SC...it was a very inovative van like he said ^^ ....my parents won't buy a new van b/c there is nothing like a previa, the seats turn around (for fun traveling), more space than any van on the market now...and is a solid car...but i'm trying to tell 'em to get a oddessy...it is the best van out there right now, hands down...

but my parents van has 280k miles, and runs insanely good...plus its got a SC...muuuhahahahaha...

anyway, we test drove a oddessy van, and it looks like it will be next after the previa dies frown.gif ....toyota needs to make this awesome van again....you just can't beat it all around...(they still make it in europe...but not here)...

you have to own a previa to know how special it is! biggrin.gif

These vans are awesome.. we havent done much to keep them running fine..just the usual oil change and tune up

I think the biggest thing we changed on em were the front struts at 280K miles, and the fans in the middle.. the fan broke cause someone stuck a screwdriver in there and broke the fins lol


I wish mine was SC
