Made my own clear/red tails.... - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

***Silver Streak*** · 10-12-2002, 11:50 PM

...and I screwed up the right one.

Dunno why I tried to make it, I guess I was just bored. Anyway, I screwed up the outer lens and I want to replace it. I didn't crack it but melted it a bit when trying to remove it. It was impossible removing that lens even after I baked it and used a heat gun.

Just wondering if anyone is selling their stock rear lights for a 92-94 or if there's another GB coming up for the red/clears? Soundlrzd, I don't see them posted at your store anymore....

Should be under lighting, let me check. It should be there next time you look.

soundlzrd · 10-13-2002, 12:36 AM

They are listed under exterior. For some reason I couldn't get a lighting category.

Silver,

Not sure if you know, but SBC and I messed up SBC's rears while fvckign around with them too

I think one of them is okay and not cracked. I'm not sure which side though. Maybe you guys can work something out together.

***Silver Streak*** · 10-13-2002, 10:19 AM

Yeah, I was supposed to work on them with SBC but I couldn't do it...too hard....then you and him worked on his clears which are now fvcked up. Since I heard you guys got the lens off, I might as well try again. It's not easy working with that black goo stuff they use to seal it up.

Anyway, if someone is willing to even trade their 92-94 tail lenses, that'd awesome. I can offer some money as well...or some cheapy stereo components if needed/wanted.

I'm going to try to fix one of them now.

Varan, I'll take pics...it isn't screwed up that badly but I want it to look clean. Too bad your 95 lights don't match up to my car. I have a feeling I won't be driving this car too often in the near future.

That doesn't sound good....
you planning on selling the cam?

Hey, silver streak. I have stock taillights I'll be willing to sell. How much will you be offering? There in good condition no cracks scratches or anything. It came off of my 1992 Toyota Camry LE. Thanks.

***Silver Streak*** · 10-13-2002, 08:28 PM

Thanks Paul, I emailed you....

Here are the pics of the mess I made...notice I made the outline thicker...I was going to do that for the center red piece, but it's too hard to take off the glass. Bad planning on my part. I think I now have to paint the center piece silver....man, I'm just digging and digging a bigger hole...someone stop me....

The right one is the lens that's screwed up....I actually redid it today so it fits better...but I cracked the lens a bit. You can't really tell by the pics....

lankanprince · 10-13-2002, 08:34 PM

Henry... That looks pretty good man....
Maybe because i can't see it in person but still..... I like it....

arcasmachineracing · 10-13-2002, 10:00 PM

i screwed my also... i wish that i could figure out a way to clear out the middle "lights" i have on my 94 LE......

if anybody does know it would be greatly appreciated... thanks......

soundlzrd · 10-13-2002, 10:39 PM

Yes, the lights are DOT legal.
