WTB: AW11 Rear Windscreen Visor from Australian User

[20ValveMR2]

Hey guys.....i am in desperate need of the windscreen visor that sits above the rear windscreen and has toyota written on it. Along with the trim that surrounds the visor. I am looking to buy from Australian User only. Cheers

I got one but its on my car at the moment. Sorry.

Have u tried a wreacker or even ask toyota but ask it for the aust spec on.
Thats one problem i have with toyota Australia. Went there went do u have this part for my car. They go no we dont deal with imports. I go but exactly the same as the aust spec on. They go not it isnt. I go u sure just check the puter. They then go oh it is too. But u were still wrong. Dam upstarts that dont know anything.

Japan Imports in brisbane also have ALOT of parts for imports...there are quite a few wreckers who import crashed cars to strip for customers.

Do u mean ALLJAP in virginia???

Which one im tryin to find the sc manual drive shafts for the aw11. Its a bit tough but a mate said he can get em so hopefully he can but wouldnt mind a couple of backups just in case he couldnt.

Thanks for the reply. I have rung literally every japanese wrecker in the phone book. They all just say its a very rare car and they dont get many wrecked ones in. My only other option is to buy one off people on the net but when they live in the US it costs shitloads to get the visor over here. AAARRRRGGHH!!! The pains of owning an AW11 MR2 :P

They go no we dont deal with imports

not to be a smart-ass or anything.... but... aren't all vehicles considered imports in aus?? or are there manufacturing plants there? I'm not all up-to-date on australia... sorry for the off-topic post, but I'd like some learnin'

[Sly_Bastard]

All cars are imports but the s/c version was not directly sold here. So therefore they say they dont have parts so u need to sell it and buy one from them. In actual fact all cars are imported to Aus but companies dont admit it and dont want to sell parts to gray imports although most parts are exactily the same as the Aus spec ones.

They class em as Aus spec ones and gray imports. toyota in australia will actually not service most old mr2's even if u bought em from toyota. Sad but true fact.
