Finally sorted my roof, thanks to advice I got on this forum. - THANK YOU KINDLY FRIENDS!! - I then went and purchased some wheel centre caps because the rather large castle nut type thing that pokes out looks (to me anyway) a little ugly.

Anyway, as it turns out, they are for a 6th Gen Celica but evidently not for mine. I thought the wheels on my car were standard celica wheels but these caps do not even come close to fitting...I will have to investigate further!

So, if there is anyone that wants them (they're in fair condition and the ebayer I bought them from said they were "very good") just give me a shout and they are on their way for whatever the postage costs, probably 2 - 3 pounds)

I also now have two sunroof motors, which are refurbished (I just replaced the famous broken pins with stainless steel ones - works perfectly), I cannot envision me ever needing to replace them so same again, if you are a registered user on here and have been for over a month just give me a shout and they are yours for whatever it costs to post them to you.

What a brilliant site, populated with lovely helpful people. I now know more about the little car I am going to spend the rest of my motoring days with than I ever thought it possible to know.



I will pop in as often as my daily grind allows so just ping me if you want them... and a big THANK YOU to the people who run this site

Those center caps, although similar to the late spec 6gc GT center caps, are actually for a Camry.

Oh right, I wasnt aware of that when I picked them up...never mind maybe someone will have a Camry who can use them.

Would be great if you did my friend, I cant find any anywhere.

This is a picture of one of my wheels...sorry about the grubby appearance, I've been concentrating on gettingf her shipshape before I clean her up properly



I had a read of your progress post - Brilliant - I wish Id have done something similar now, although I have done hardly anything so far, so still have the opportunity to create a progress post.

Thanks again both!

Well those are definitely not stock Celica wheels. I would try and see if there is any kind of branding on the wheels and then you could try and find centre caps based off of that.

I was assuming you had the stock GT 5 spoke wheels when I said the center caps are from a Camry. They could easily be from a Celica now that I know you have aftermarket wheels.
