So I ordered my low beam projectors and they should be here shortly.
Now here's my deal. How hard is it to wire up in the USDM celicas? Is it just a matter of getting the proper sockets (plugs) for the bulb cutting the stock ones and just rewiring the new ones in, or is there more chaos? Do the projectors screw right in? Also. I'm planning on getting a nice HID kit (I get them rather cheap $350 US or so..) for the low beams. What do you guys recommend? Would it look good in the projectors? Is it too hot for the projectors? Any bit of info would be great! Thanks, Shaun |

Thanks for the info guys.. and well the story of stories.. why my three lights work!
One day both my highbeams died out, so i replaced them both, and for some odd reason, when I fired up the lights only one of the two highs came on. I changed the bulb, thinking it was defective. Same result. This was also the same time, my day time running lights (the law here in Canada, just uses the high beams at a lower wattage) died out as well! So for months, I just drove around like that. So one night, I was with my GF and we pulled into a hydro line field and started to make out - with the car running. Normally with the lights set to off, the daytime running lights would come to life (the highbeams would come on.. but at lower power.. ) but they DRL were dead so no issues. Anyway, it was pitch black and all of a sudden, she's like LIGHTS, NO it's the cops! SO I jump up, and sure enough my daylight running lights came on by them selves, and the one high beam that was dead was on. I quickly jumped of her, turned the high beams on... and they worked (after running out of the car to check it out... ohh yeah the gf was not ammused) But yeah, it stayed like this for a while and then went back to dead. I still have no idea what the hell happend. I'm thinking one of the relays is gone.. but the cost from Toyota is.. $$$ soo if anyone has anysort of clue what might be wrong.. do let me know. I know it's not the bulb. and not the wires. Shaun |
