    T10 5SMD:
    Cluster - (4x) (turn signals/warning indicators i kept them the old bulbs because it doesn't make a difference)

    T10 7LED:
    Front corner markers (2x) (JDM/EDM top part)

    [​IMG]
    T5 1SMD:
    Key ring
    cigarette lighter surround (take off green plastic)
    Ashtray light

    i didn't bother changing the green indicators for the HVAC, just the lighting for the buttons

    32mm Festoon 6SMD for Courtesy lights:
    Front (must modify housing)
    Center

    To get rid of the smell first clean up the ash tray, then put a bag a charcoal banquets and open up the bag in a x with a knife. the charcoal soaks up the nasty smells.

    whoever did the paint job was freakin smart, that bottom part that looks like it's orange peel is actually some kind of paint that resists paint chips, rocks, anything that gets thrown on it.

    what did you do for the grille conversion? headlight buckets and all?

    headlight buckets? i just took out the old grille and corner lights, popped in the facelift edm corners, top screws for the facelift grille, ziptied the edges. i have to look at a yard to figure out how they properly fit. but they look straight!

    yeah i just re-did mine to delete the drywall screws that were holding the grille on. you need the headlight buckets and the center piece that holds the horns, ect. the little sqaure bit that the grille clips to is welded on the buckets and is in a different position on the post. the center bit looks exactly the same but is actually more forward for the grille to attach.

    -i used the post grille with pre "celica" bit and eyelids. painted the grille with plasti dip....looks mint and no clicking or binding when the lights flip. p.o.'s conversion was f'n ghetto. ill throw up some pics today.
