For the 94-95 turns, you will want to spray chrome. They're too dark otherwise... I have them, and I need to redo them because I DIDN'T paint the inside... tongue.gif

Wow Nice I like that, where did you find the clear lenses? I've looked and cant find them anywhere. And how did you find the projectors, I couldnt find those either. Did you custom make them?

The pre facelift clear turns came from me - I'm the only person making them. You might also like my clear 3rd brake lens which particularly suits a silver car.Personally, I would chrome spray the dull internal reflector to brighten the overall effect.




Has your car ever been on T.V? Mine was used in the opening sequences here - note the clear turns and front LED'shttp://videos.streetfire.net/video/Wheeler...11-9c0f00a0b820
Yeah I really like that especially on the silver, looks smooth. So are those illegal to have because they're not red? Oh and as for aftermarket projector headlights for the 6g do you know where I can find some

Perfectly legal - as long as they illuminate red. Better effect with multi LED bulb or LED strip. They also carry the same factory markings as the originals.

Also think how many new cars have clear 3rd brake lights, well they're pretty common over here particularly on up market motors.

Sorry, but I'm not sure I understand the question - do you mean what are the original Toyota part no's?

Yes, I thought it is an original frown.gif
By chance does not know where is it possible to purchase such?
If you want the clear lenses, I am the only maker. I have supplied many people on here, and yes they do look like they came from the Toyota factory, but they are made in my workshop.

I already have Wolfies clear turns, and have helped a friend install his clear turns on his GT-Four & his clear 3rd brake light... having seen this product in person, its definately high quality! I understand that clear headlight lenses are different than the plastic turns/brake light, but do you think you could swing it?
