i am not sure if i made a mistake of putting the projector in this piece of crap, it is falling apart on exterior and interier, 272+ k miles on the odo, but it does give good illumination at night
this is my 2nd time of doing then gen 3 retro, using tsx clear lense projector, with 2 or 3 years old depo clear headlight.
here it is
i have the wall shot picture at another computer, will post later
=~~~seems ur projectors may be worth more than ur camry!
you are very correct, it is sad but true a statement.
the most recent repair were the radiator and hoses, $100 for parts and coolant.
but it has good gas milage, 29 to 30 average mix for 25% city and 75% highway.
stickshift, enough torque to get me from point a to point b. just one fun piece of crap to drive around.
here is a wall shot inside my garage with half garage door closed during a sunny noon time.
i noticed the hazziness of the old depo clear headlight lense has taken away all the sharpness and blue color from clear tsx projector.
those look really good! how long did it take you? Im looking at doing this with my old Gen 3.5 lights after i clear them.
took me a good 1/2 day on Sunday morning, but took a long time for planning. i ended with 2 small scratch cuts on my left hand fingers.
as far as the gen 3.5 headlight lense, i would recommend getting the gen 3 depot headlight and do a grille conversion. clearing fluted lense never as good as clear headlight lense. i've been there , done it on gen 4 headlights
I have a pair of Depos now, but i rather try it with the GEN 3.5 lights so i dont ruin my Depos on the first try...lol

all i know is they make the car look evil.. MUHAHAHA!!!!
question, where can i find projectors for a gen3 92 camry???
the one i have is a 2004 -2005 acura tsx clear lense projector, from ebay, market price is roughly around $100 to $150 last time i checked.
there are various low budget projectors that will fit, RX330 AFS is another one
i was trying to fit a LS430 projectors in, but the headlight housing is just tooooo small, about 1" short of height.
