Searching for goodies

Hey guys hope this is the right place. But I've been looking for a couple parts for a few days and have had no luck. I've been looking for the front side marker lights and the rear spoiler. I've seen a couple camrys on here with them so I know they have to be out there somewhere. Anybody know where to point me? I have a 1991 camry.

Side markers only came on JDM, EDM, and Australian market camrys. Best place to start looking for those would be ebay australia. And as far as the spoiler goes their were 2 a thin lip spoiler that was only found on EDM GLi camry's and the spoiler that sits on 2 small pedal stools that was only available on the canadian special edition camry's. I've been searching for both for a while now with no such luck. But good luck to you and hope this helps.

The short pedestal-style spoiler can also be had aftermarket - ones made for an accord should also fit.

I actually have sidemarkers from a JDM Celica and the Euro GLi rear spoiler... but sorry, they aren't for sale.

Sometime this year - I want to do the motor swap first. It also needs to get repainted...

Really, you just gotta hang around for 10+ years and you'll find cool stuff.

I got it from an old member on here who parted out his car... I also got Aussie headlights from him. The JDM front bumper was from another member, etc., etc. I also got many parts from other forums (things that swap over from the Celica, for example).

You either have to go searching all over (other forums, emailing foreign suppliers) or wait for somebody else to do it for you.

Wanted to ask you in particular about the rear drum and rear disk setups on these cars since you sound like you've been messing with them for awhile. This is the first camry of this generation I've had so I'm no too familier with the compatabilty of certain parts. but anyways There a camry v6 le model with a rear disk setup. I'm just curious if that setup will work on my 4cyl with rear drums? I'm about 99.9% sure they will but I'm wanting to be 100% before I start the process.

Yes, they are compatible.

You will need:
Rear hubs w/ brakes (complete is easiest, you can get by without the knuckle if you have to to save money)
Rubber brake hoses
E-brake cables

It all just bolts on.

Oh, and the proportioning valve is a different P/N between the rear drum and rear disk cars - it would probably be best to swap that out too... (I did when I did my rear disk swap)

Thanks man. I figured about the proportion valve and the lines etc. Just wanted to make sure the assembly would mount up. I just swapped my base model cluster with the lx cluster. My next thing is to swap the drums to disk brakes. I can't stand driving a car without them. Thanks again.
