i was just wondering if there were aftermarket euro lights made for camrys. and if so if anyone has installed them. i'm curious about how they look and what kind of responses they recieve.

There are.. you just have to find the right type of the bulb your Camry uses and buy the matching one..
1992 Camry uses 9005 for (low beam) 9006/HB4 for high beam...
They are "okay" if you don;t want to spend that much money.. about 16-20 US dollars should be the maximum you spent on those kind of bulbs...
if you want "real" HID-like bulbs (for low beam), choose RAZO (carmate) or PIAA, with temperature above 4000k. Ofcourse they are much more expensive. But they look quite cool. But for high beam, you can actually buy those Eurolite bulbs, they are quite white when you turn the highbeam on. But nothing can replace real HID.

Be careful of the plug. I used 55W eurolight on my Gen3 before. It made my plug melt. So make sure you check!

i never really understood why people call altezzas "euro lights", there's nothing euro about them...and they came from Japan, not some European country...

Oh! You mean European light! You find a European light for Gen3? How much?
Make sure is European Light (Altezza style) not clear tail. They are different!

Bro i dont see how your lights burned out and only drawing 55 watts of current.. I have 55watt eurolights and I've had no problem....

Your stock lights are 51 watts... and the ones that burned out in my car were the nokya's 80/100 watts you probably touched the bulb or it was just a bad bulb

No, the bulbs didn't burn out. Just the plug melt, I don't know why. The stock bulbs of Gen3 are 55W also. I changed the plugs already and I am using Piaa 51W now. It more brighter than the Eurolight 55W.
