hey guys...i was thinking...why do companies NOT make clear turns for our years (94-95)? They make them for every year surrounding us...but NOT US! mad.gif confused.gif

. . . . so i was pondering . . . . biggrin.gif

Why don't we get a huge group of people wanting them (i know there are a lot of them here) and do something about this tragic problem....LIKE GET THEM TO MAKE THEM! biggrin.gif

...how'd we do that? confused.gif

...just an idea...i would think if we sent the companies a letter saying "hey dude, we have several hundred people here wanting them...make them!" (maybe commit a price...or something? rolleyes.gif

LETS DO IT.... biggrin.gif

btw, what do you think? tongue.gif

?.dangerous when i ponder on the lack love people have for our celies (94-95) wink.gif

...snapshotgt biggrin.gif

It won't work because the number of people wanting them to be made doesn't payout to a company. It's not worth it to them to take the time and resources to do it.

yep, even with everybody on this site, theres still not enough of a demand to justify it. i see the lack of demand as a good thing though. that just means our cars are more unique in the tuning world biggrin.gif.

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

this has been tried before, good luck, but you have some other options

1 make your own / have someone make some for you

2 do the 5th gen ones

3 convert to the 96+ front bumper

Sounds $$$ to convert to a 96-99 bumper (get the paint job and all . . . does not sound worth it --- I know it might sound contradicting to what i'm purposing... smile.gif

- - - if you look at my sig...you can see i've made a pair....but i'd like a little more quality tongue.gif

....and the 5th. gen ones in my opinion look really ugly (people who have done that...don't get mad at me...just an opinion smile.gif)

. . . cmon we gotta think really hard...someones gotta know how we can get a custom maker to make them?

Ok if you guys are planning on making the front turn clear I know a bunch of company who'll be more then willing to redo your front turn signals to look like it came out from the Toyota factory. But one thing you should plan on is how many is going to be made clear & how much are your willing to spend & one more then would you want it made with couple LED lights or would you rather have it made with just stock bulb. You figure this out & let me know I'll talk to my people and gie you a price.
Here is a example pic of MR2 side turn signal

Why get a company to make them when we have people on this site to make them for us. If I wanted some clear turns ask fallen Hero to make me some. Fallen Hero makes Custom turn signals and tail lights just PM him if ya want some.

FallenHero's stuff rocks...but FallenHero can't make these for everyone!
- - - hes got a life other than making turns...plus they'd could possibly be cheaper than $70 (what fallenhero charges)...that's if we get enough people on board..lets see what it would cost though....(plus they could be better quality than FallenHeros -> no offence please, no offence meant<-)

interested Project95St202...lets see how much i'd cost....and how many people say "lets do it"....could you look into it?

thanks,

It's not hard looking in to a price but yet it will change alot on pricing if you know what I mean. One way or the other they would have to make some kind of profit making these Celica front turn signals for us if they do make them for us.
One more important fact would be you would have to personally ship in your own fron turn signal to get them done so think about shipping & handling as well depending where you live. I'm guessing more people cheaper it will be depending on stock bulb or LED bulb. Get a EST. of how many is looking to get & i'll try sending one of my front turn to make a ample for all of us.

i think it would be eaier if some one sent the plastic to a company and just had them make the clear lens for us..... might have to order like a dozen of them but it is posiable..
same thing with are headlights .. hint people hint... ;-)

Good luck finding atleast 100 people intrested. Cuz only at these numbers normal comapys start making stuff. If you knew WHAT is involved in making them - you would think differently.

Cuz ussualy MOLD for housing, MOLD for clear glass will cost so much money what even after 100 sale i aint think it will pay up.

OK why don't we just all stop here about what could happen and what not could happen. I will talk to them tomorrow & see where this project would lead us with price & amount is something they do not care .... it could start us of just making 1 set but yet it would be cheaper for us to make dozen.
