All out of the interior pieces came out of the ONE lone 6th gen we found today (it was a coupe). ALL the pieces seen will soon be red/black carbon fiber wrapped. Found a BUNCH of 5th gen's also, hence the passenger side mirror (Dustin gave us a drivers side a while back). Finding a power mirror though.......not so much. The one junkyard where we got the interior parts had five 5th Gens. ONE had both mirrors that were power, but the passenger side was cracked pretty bad. Only one other one had a mirror, and it was the passenger side, but non power. Sadly, I couldn't get them disassembled to swap the power guts over.

So my wife and I headed home and stopped by this one other place I knew of that was local. Went in, and the guy said "I don't think we've got any celica's, but feel free to take a look" and didn't charge us to get in. The VERY last car on the lot in the back left corner was a white 90, power mirrors, and had the passenger side that you see in the pic.

Best part? Paid $25 for the mirror, and $10 at the other lot for all the interior plastic. Can't beat that with a stick.
