Last week I finished my rear conversion from 5x100 to 5x114



And this week I bought my friends touchscreen HU which I'm super excited about. The sound is 100% better than my old stereo and LOOKS better too biggrin.gif

They're for a XV10 Camry (91-96). These have the same hub/bearing assembly as ours except in 5x114 bolt pattern. Also used the camry's rear brake discs!

I had a discussion about before I went through with it. CLICK HERE

Thanks
I figured out if you triple the tape horizontally in the center of the rear emblem it works perfect for the concavity of the trunk.. thumbsup.gif

Note: I used 3m Extreme Exterior double sided tape and used an exacto to trim

Wow I must have been out of the loop for a long time, your car is coming along great. All you need is 4wd rav4 front hubs and Camry discs to complete what im too lazy to do. Keep on swimming!

Thanks Jon, means a lot!

Probably going to complete the conversion in February, tax season, mainly because I need to replace my driver-side CV Axle so I''ll do it all at once.
