Scepter?

[newtestleper@ho]

I have a 93 Camry and I wanted to get a Scepter bit that goes between the taillights. Problem is that I can't seem to find a place to purchase one, only pix of people who have one one their Camry already.

Anyone know where I can track down one of these puppies?

It's an rare item these days and to find one takes more luck than you having one on the slots in Vegas.

yea, best chances are to import them from japan.
i think UFoz mentioned a number of how many of those were actually made and they're rare... and i mean RARE.

^ They aren't that rare. Go to a Japanese dealership and order one and they'll have youa new one within 2 weeks. But who's gonna do that...

^^^no one will.. the community doesnt wanna pay the arm and leg it costs for them only around 300usd.... hell most dont wanna drop more than 400 for a damn kit.

True, and dammit, quit with the 'Where can I find the Scepter parts' threads. There are too many of them, please search

You can just ask toyota to send you silver replacement letters if you don't mind the cheap raised look. Or i suppose you can find someway to do it custom.

[RichieRichJP]

^ as mentioned on all the other posts, no that is cheatin it and isn't the real thing.

im going on a trip to malaysia in the summer, any chance i can find scepter parts there?(because i was planning on hunting some down) or is it all camry??

[RichieRichJP]

Oh yeah, they dont have replacement lettering. The printed diagrams I have show that its sold only as a whole.

I will be going to Japan this summer. I will check out to see if they can order it at the Dealer. Last year I ordered an ashtray for a CR-V for $10 from the dealer when the U.S. Dealer wanted $200. The new CR-Vs don't come with astrays.

So I won't be suprised if it cost like $50. That is if they still make it.

Bluemeanie was selling one awhile ago, not sure if it sold. PM him.

[RichieRichJP]

They still make it. The Gen 3.5 one costs $145 w/ tax, and the Gen 3 one costs about $355 w/ tax.

i ordered mine new many years ago. it came from Toyota Japan. cost about $400 us. but i got a good deal. i ordered the tails at the same time. came to over $800 us. shiped but good luck finding them for that price now. thay are a hard to find item and the cost is alot more than most are willing to pay just to change the name on the trunk.
