6G Celicas Forums

the gauges where pointless i think it was oil temp voltage and oil pressure the last owner did a terrible job so pulled them out, the mats sound like a good idea, have to look around from them. thanks for the ideas

hey all...been quiet on the home front just got back from afghanistan. so thought i would give the celica a little bit of TLC. to start with ripped all of the horrible gauges, red painted plastic trim, the dial covers. Also just manged to get a nice set of HID lights which should arrive in a couple of days, so that will be all at the moment just glad i got the interior sorted, but to be honest i think i may have to look into a gt4 now and step up my game witha nice big turbo, any feedback on the car would be great, i want to make this a suttle but sweet gen6

today i finally decided to use my remote locking and found out that it didnt actually work it locks the car and the lights flash but when i went to find out if it works when it alarms....no sound so i looked through my owners manual and nothing, looked under the car and found that the alarm unit cables had been uncoupled...hooked them back up and same again no alarm siren when i set it off, Was just wondering if anyone knew how to resolve or had the same problem before..have looked on google and nothing so this is my next resort before going back to toyota dealership.

Any ideas people ?

thanks to rabidTRD your link helped me out loads now just a waiting game for them to arrive

im not some incompitent little boy that doesnt know anything about car electronics i know they use ballast as i have had them fitted on my last 4 cars....i simply asked if there was a certain type of holder for the hid bulb itself....from what i can see they dont just fit straight in....cheers for your 'Help' though

any one got a source they would like to share as to where i can get them from ....that is if they exist ?? i have searched through ebay and a few uk jap specialists but no luck so if anyone has any sites they know where i can get them from please let me know

its for a 98 uk model

and where would that be then ?

does anybody know where i can get an adaptor so that i can fit a HID Xenon light kit because toyota had to be diffrent with there bulbs

Any help would be appreciated thanks

BUMP
