3rd Generation Need Help Desperately!!!

Alright Ya'll I have been modifying my Gen 3.5 Camry for over 3 years so please don't flame me for these questions...i searched all topics and everything and I have very specific questions that i should know the answer 2 but don't...any help is greatly appreciated

1. How many 194s do I need to change out all the lights in my gauge cluster?

2. How do you disconnect the cig lighter from the u-shaped dash piece?

3. How do you remove the A/C vents on the right side of the dashboard?

4. Is back door removal the exact same process as front door removal?

5. I had a muffler welded on to my car and have a backpressure problem...is there any way to gain this back...i am sick of my car bogging down at the first instance of accelaration?

6. How do I remove the cupholder?

2. How do you disconnect the cig lighter from the u-shaped dash piece?

Isn't it just clipped to a harness?


4. Is back door removal the exact same process as front door removal?

assumin gyou're talking about the inside door skin and not the entire door...yeah pretty much.


6. How do I remove the cupholder?

They are probably clipped in. I used a screwdriver to take them out of the 626. It doesn't look like i messed anything up and I'm pretty sure they will go back in.

The cupholder was also clipped on the mazda 626. So I used a screwdriver and pryed that out too.

1. for a Gen3 they have 4 x 194 bulbs plus one small 74 bulb for the illumation of the gauges.

6. to remove the cupholder, you need to remove the whole centre control (where the shifter is). If you get yourself a Haynes manual or something like that, it will be alot of help here
when you get the console off, it should be just 2 screws behind the cupholder to remove it

need more backpressure? turbocharge it is an option.. turbochargers make their own backpressure .

Otherwise if a resonator isn't helping enough, you're going to have to change your muffler then.

BTW... I've never really heard anyone say they lost too much backpressure when they installed a muffler. You should know that anything you do exhaust wise to add backpressure will most likely restrict power too. (turbocharger exempt).

Start working on your engine to gain more acceleration.
