The real question is, "Why?" The unique four headlights is what seperates the 6th gen from all the other Celicas.

You should just get a 5th Gen if you want to do that. The body styling of the 6th Gen is almost the same as the 5th. 6th Gen is just a bit more rounder.

The headlights are not the separating factor of a 5th and 6th gen. They have a totally different body style. That is why these lights do not look good on the 6th gen. Square lights do not blend in with the sleak styling the 6th gen has.
