I have to get new clear signal bumper light? But as far as i can see they dont make them for a 94 hb. they make them for the 90 -93 and the 96+ years. If any which one would fit in easier or what are my other options???

'90-93 will fit easier, though they'll be too small and it'll look funny I think. '96+ has a different shape altogether, and won't even come close to fitting right.
You can always make your own custom signals, or have someone make them for you. Search and you'll find more information on this. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

[right][snapback]259109[/snapback][/right] I think they look like poo. They just dont look right using the overlight plastic. Id say if you coudl find a better plastic to use, tehy will look nice, but what to use no idea.. |

I'm thinking about experimenting with lexan for mine. It's going to be very dificult to get them to look perfect though.
Oh, and Doug, I do agree that mine don't look that good, but it's far better than the amber stock ones that I had before, especially on yellow. This post has been edited by Coomer: Mar 18, 2005 - 2:52 PM -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

[right][snapback]259449[/snapback][/right] I'd just find some clear plexiglass or lexan. If you want the frosted look, just scuff the plastic up with sandpaper. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

You have the invader kit that is totally different than the stock bumper.
The custom clear turns wont ever look as good as the 93 turns IMO. The chrome paint is the big key, and the houseing is another. The DIY clear turns just don't look good. PS I have pics of the 93 turns in my profile if anyone wants to see them. |

I used the how-to you sent me a long time ago. I think it was you and yes I did, just one bracket.
