I thought Gen3 bulbs were 9006/9005? Those look to be the wrong bulbs.

No, gen 3s use 9005 and 9006 bulbs, these won't fit without housing modifications plus wiring modifications, etc. etc.

in fact, they don't fit any US spec Camry's. I dunno if it may be different in Australia.

Be careful when buying hid or xenon bulbs for your stock headlights because they could be too much wattage and burn your housing. Also, they could fry your wiring.

You're right about the bulbs being the wrong type, but those aren't HID bulbs, they are just "bluish" halogens.

Yea those will not work with your camry. Also they are not Xenon lights even though they have some xenon gas in them.

If you dont want to do HIDs yet, do the 9005 conversion. Thats what I did to my tC. If you decide to go this this route make sure to buy a heavy duty relay harness. You dont want to fry your wiring, as previouly stated.

Does your camry have built in fog lights? If so then YES this should it, i was thinking of north american camrys. Everywhere else in the world uses this bulb i believe. Sorry about that.

You know what, the easiest way is to just pop your hood and check it out.

Take a picture of your headlight harness (the side without the battery is easier to access)
