Haven't been on in a while so I figured I would post some updated project pics...Thanks to everyone's help here and on HID Planet for providing all the great information on the retrofit.

Stock set up before...

During mods...

Near Completion blacked out version...

Basically i went from a stock 97 camry headlight to a 2000/2001 headlight. Retrofitted a set of mini low/high beam projectors in along with a set of TL's. Then took GTI-R shrouds, drilled out the holes and placed 6 LED's on each shroud to use as daytime running lights. Similar to the halo's you see in BMW's but a bit different. Then custom fabricated 3 orange LED's in the top corner of the headlight as a turn signals. More night time pics to come soon...

For the interior update, here is a before and after where everything is going...enjoy...

before stock...

During construction....

Color of the dash and console will be changed as well.

woah, that's RED!

Sweet head lights, I love it when people do a real upgrade to their head lights. Did you make a thread on HIDplanet? I look forward to seeing the finished product :weed:

Sick retro fit on the headlights, bro. I'm about to do that to my Camry with my old Civic's halo projectors. My plan is very simple, just with a lot of wiring. I'm not big on red, but I really like how clean it looks. Good job man.

Nice headlights, but I'm more interested in your Bride upholstery. Where did you find such a beauty? Also, may I ask what type of rails you used for your Brides? I haven't been able to figure out what type of rails I need for the Gen 4.

Car's looking great!

What's up gold94coroll, Haven't made a thread on HID Planet yet. I want to get the headlights closer to being complete before i post anything. I'm in the process of aiming them now. Wiring is going to be a huge pain. I'll have other pics up soon.



Hey xspeed, All of the Bride upholstery was done by me. I used an industrial strength glue, would have to look up the exact name of the glue, to wrap the stock plastic pieces. There are some fitting issues but its not to bad as majority of it fits like the stock parts. I got the fabric from vivid racing, not to bad on the prices as tees USA is the US distributor. What type of Bride seats to do you have or looking to get? I went through vivid racing again and they hooked me up with another company, wedge engineering. They basically take recaro seat brackets and modify each one to fit sparco, bride, etc or whatever other seats your looking at. Little expensive but they are definitely worth the money. Here's there website, http://www.wedgeengineering.net/, shoot them an email and they are usually very quick to get back. Let me know if you have any other questions.

thanks for the comments guys

Cool, thanks. Yah, I'm planning on doing the upholstery work myself as well. As for the brackets, I'm interested in getting Brides Gias II or Stradia II.
