New 5th gen camry driver

Hey everybody, the first of the year, i got my stepfathers 2003 Toyota Camry Le 2.4l 4cyl.

So far im loving it, except its very very bland.

I would really like to change some stuff on it, like put tint, change the headlights, and put a new cd player in it.

But i was actually kind of curious about something. I saw this video on youtube (
) where a company took some projecter headlights from ebay, and make them a little brighter/add an audi look to it, and i really like what he did to these headlights. Except what caught my eye was that it they took the yellow out of the corners. Would this be street legal to drive with?

Also if any of you guys can recommend me some new headlights (black housing preferably) That would be really helpful.

P.S. Do 05 Camry's tail lights fit the 03 Camry's tail lights spots?

i doubt that lack of the amber reflectors would be a big deal; as far as headlights, u get wut u pay for...... i've heard ebay headlights sometimes leak and i doubt the halos would last very long...... when i was looking for headlights i liked the anzo headlights or you can go with OEM and get a retro like me

far as the tails they are all the same shape and they all use the same bulbs...... only thing is you have to modify the wire harness because the bulbs are in different spots and the wiring may not be long enough

Welcome!

I have a set of headlights and tail lights for sale (not like in that video though). Your best bet would be to do a full retro fit then you know the quality would be the best and have the best projectors etc.

The tails can be swaped between 02-04 and 05-06 but you will have to upgrade the wiring harness to the 05-06 harness as they are different.

Same if you want the 05-06 headlights.

I sent you a PM about your headlights. And I honestly would like to have retrofit, but i feel like these forums are alot less ... talkative than the hyundai forums i used to attend. (used to drive 2000 hyundai accent, so you all should understand how much of an uprgaded car/better looking car i got for a guy my size)

If anyone can point me into the direction of someone who currently is retrofitting/selling retro fitted headlights let me know (im trying to keep my stock headlights and put the away till i need them)
