I got mine for my 2000 camry on ebay. I don't think it was that much, but looks the same.

I put in the amber bulbs, the same as the front turn signals to be legal as I don't think white turn signals are.

Can you not fit the 01 side tail light into the 97-99?

I know the inner tail is different between 97 and 01 but the outer tail looks similar.

Plus the 01 depo tails look better than the 97 depo tails IMO

here is the 01 tail http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/00-01...%3A1|72%3A1171

I don't think you can. On the toyodiy website there is two different sets of numbers for this part. 81551 and 81561 as well as 81550 and 81560. The aftermarket parts tend to show up differently for the Gen 4's verses the gen 4.5.

I got a look at my original parts and there is no part number matching these on the part. I will say this though, I got a look at a couple of Gen 4 camry's and this inner part does look different. The Gen 4.5 is not the same width thoughout the whole piece. The Gen 4 appears to be the same width.

i think there wider than the 97 outside ones

and i have amber led bulbs that im using in my oem tail lights

so im sure it look real nice when i get clear corners rears

hmm red & clear is a good idea ... looks like i'll have to copy you again ... jk

i have some all-white tails i got a long time ago i dunno what to do with ... i was thinking of putting them on and smoking the inner part but i think that sounds better than it would look ...

[.Camryman97.]

haha its not a problem dude^^^ ... its too bad you dont live near me or vise versa beacuse that would be a pretty cool photoshoot to do

i was thinking if i got the red and clear tailights to smoke the red part only and leave the white part white or just do the opposite cant decide though

i should be ordering the tailights next week so im excited

also getting new tint this weekend... 22% all around by a guy that usually does bmw cars (because he works at bmw) for $200 too!!!

I got the same one of the ebay. They don't fit 100% you will have to modify them a little. The holes in the light and the way the bulb adapter screws is little different. I had to fut some of the holes to fit the bulb adapter into those. it was worth it though.

is it hard to do??

i heard from some people the holes are a little small and just need some sanding to get the bulbs to fit

is it the connector piece or will the bulb not fit through??? i have led lights so the bulb is much skinnier

Why don't you get some of that red tinting spray n do it yourself...it be more unique IMO

[muminiasty]

it is the bulb adapter thing that doesn't fit.
