hey guys, ive been asked a few times to supply the part numbers for the red/black curren tails, i know this is a stupid question, but will the part number be on the plastic lens or on the casing somewhere else? just cos looking at it, there are a few numbers on the lens, but if its on the casing i have to take off the actual taillight cos the casing isnt visible without taking the whole light off, so just thought i'd check if the lens numbers are the part numbers.
cheers |

ok this is what it has on the lens:
Stanley RR1827 , then a funny lil symbol like an O with two horizontal lines running through it followed by R-1148. this is the same on both lenses and the left hand also has 'LH' and the right side has 'RH' are any of these the part numbers? or do i need to take the whole unit out? |

dont have time do take the tail off till next weekend now if the below isnt what your after.
also, you know that they dont have sidemarkers? i dont know if that makes them illegal in usa, so you might have to wire up some seperate sidemarkers for the back |

cheers for that, i'll take it off next weekend and post it up and take some pics of the lights up close and with light, indicators and reverse lights on etc.
i guess i'll have to take off both left and right sides cos they'll be different? |

you could always give the part numbers to save me having to take off my tails
i doubt that it'll become hugely popular, many people will spew at the price and not do it, and im sure that the numbers of 6gc still around are small enough that your not gonna see every celica coupe with curren tails |

No theres a reason i wasnt giving out the parts numbers. Mainly to keep these things extremely rare, and my car one of the few. I liked saying my car is probably one of the few in the country.

They light up differently than stock coupe's. Know how theres like a space between the lights on each light. Looks like 4 spots of light, well that doesnt happen, they merge and make one big one.
These are stock coupe lights - the gap in between each light isnt there, which is a downside for me, l liked it. This post has been edited by Supersprynt: Jul 27, 2003 - 6:46 PM -------------------- |

I ordered my pair of curren tails like 3 weeks ago and i was going to post the part number on here also,....buuuuuutttttt... Supersprynt is right. I want to be different and rare. B4 i actually even heard or saw these tails, i had a pic of getting some custom made exactly the same. WE would of been two of the few in the USA (MAYBE THE ONLY 2) w/ those tails.
I mean thats why Kuya1234 took off his pics out of his profile. |

Honestly I don't really understand why you guys don't just post them. CurrenZS is gonna come back with the part numbers next weekend anyhow. Why not save him the trouble and post the numbers now? Besides you might even save some face.

seriously. Like i'm down with being original and all, i think its cool or whatever. But the guy is going to post those part #'s in a week. So, you'll only be able to be original for like another week or so. Whatever...

man...you guys are ghey...anyone want part numbers for the JDM high/low beam headlights? . people will find out the number sooner or later, and they will come up on ebay, or somethin like that. sooooo, all you are doing is delaying the inevitable. besides. who cares if another celica across the nation has it? why don't you help out the people that are trying to be in the same community, w/ the same car none the less. it's not like celica enthusiasts are eveywhere...so why not help out the few, and the proud?
selfish conceited bastards.... -John- i'm just glad i dont want the part numbers, because i'd hate to have a coupe. gag. if i had one, i'd be doin this everytime time i saw a hatch ==> -------------------- |

Coupes are nicer
My lights are in my car ne ways its not like its going to be any less trouble for me. Theres going to be conflicting views on this like everything else in the world. I was just hoping some people would be able to look past being pissed off and see the reasons behind this. I try my best to help everyone out this is just something that I would rather keep to myself. Sorry for the inconvenience. -------------------- |

well. we really don't care about what you believe evidently, we're just stating that what you're doing, or NOT doing for that matter, is all for not. it is futile, for the part numbers will be revealed, but just remember who was being a dick about it. . remember that, and take that into consideration the next time you ask for something.

ok, i disagree with the part about kuya. he was doing a lot of custom stuff that he didn't want copied, which was why he took the stuff down. that's different than having these tails. everyone who wants them is going to be able to get them very soon, so everything you guys have done is gonna be moot anyway, and it's totally different. they aren't custom, they are just a toyota part, and it's not like you thought up the idea of curren tails. w/e. i'm gonna look and find the numbers and post them. -------------------- 1994 Lexus ES300

I never said i thought up the idea...but when you do things to cars like we do, originality and being different is what scores you the points, and gets you the trophies. I'm afraid these are going to turn into altezza lights on Civics...all people wit coupes are going to get them, they're going to get played out. They wont be special or different ne more, its just going to be oh, yeah wow currens, great havent seen THOSE before.
And you guys wanna change this from a diagreement to a name calling contest, well just get it over wit, cuz i dont do that shizit. I'm not asking ne body to care about what i think or believe im just asking to understand. And, as you can see, the GT4 front fascad is getting popular... im sure not everyone is happy bout that. -------------------- |
