Talking Junk Yard Virgin

I went to the junkyard for my first time.
im only 18 so it was fun to me.

except we just had a huge winter storm. and the wind was crazy. and the imports were all the way in the back.


they had 2 91 camrys, a couple 90s and a wagon and a celica gt 91 i beleive.

soooo pissed i didnt know some camrys had sunroofs! i want one wtf.
and i wanted a v6 tach. there was a v6 but the same speedo as mine.


i just had 2 questions.
on the celica gt if it is a 91 like i beleive.
would the spoiler look good on my camry sence its so low and stock looking.
same color as my car (metallic grey)


and also the seats in the celica are dirty but can i use the seat rails in the camry with the camry seats?

im trying to get mine to scootch back farther!

I know that feeling all too welll...haha

As for the tach, you can swap them out as long as they are the same year (or within the same generation revision, such as a Gen2.0 and Gen2.5) and same engine (if it was a V6, get the V6 cluster). As for the mileage, you can just simply swap over the side with the miles over to the new 'tach' cluster.


I don't know anything about the seats though. Spolier...never seen it on a Camry so don't know how it'll look.

The seats from a Celica don't directly bolt to the Camry. You will need to do some welding to get them to work...

Of course, while you are at the junkyard, you can do some test fitting to see what's possible...
