IDO Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Thanks MichaelG.. Ps if you follow this route.. the indicator bulbs i needed for the new looms from toyota i got from halfords.. light number 580 wich is diffrent from what halfords say you need... but their code for the side lights were correct.. Here are the codes for the main light.. sorry cant remember the code for the side lights.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben-san Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Fitted mine yesterday, and all went smoothly thanks to this thread. One thing to add though, if you do still have your SMIC, I reccomend you have a little 8mm ring spanner to hand so that you can get at the bolts from the intake. Thanks Michael (if you're still about) and Macca, heatshrink is now my best friend! B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i-macca Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Heatshrink is fantastic stuff! Yes, 8mm ring spanner is very helpful, even more helpful is an 8mm ratchet spanner, gets in there and doesn't need much movement! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feakins Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Thanks for the guide, did this today on mine and went very smoothly. One question..are the sidelights sposed to stay on with dipped headlights??? Also you can get to the passenger indicator without removing the battery, took about 10 minutes for that side!

i-macca Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Depends whats down there, I didn't remove the battery but I had to remove the alarm sounder as that was in the way (UK car). Yes sidelights should always be on whatever setting your headlights are on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra-Woman Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Sorry, a rather old post but thought it best to use this than start a new one. Has anyone ever fitted the facelift indicators in the veilside bumper?? This is my bumper and i have just purchased the indicators but i have no idea how they are going to fit.

Elmo Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Looking at that picture they should fit, the air vent looks similar size to a stock bumper, just need to drill an extra hole for the indicator or it will be a bit wobbly. Anyone know any different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra-Woman Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I have been told they wont fit as they are longer than the ones i have at the mo and the gap is smaller. Im not having much luck with anything i have bought for my car since i have owned it, think i will give up and just leave it as it is.

Supra-Woman Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Do i need to do anything to the bracket to bring it forward or is there no need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra-Woman Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Coolio, now all i need is to find someone nice enough to fit them and my headlights for me, tehe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmo Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Do i need to do anything to the bracket to bring it forward or is there no need? You will see there is an extra bolt thing on the side of the indicator, you just need to drill an extra hole in the bumper to accomodate it. Some people don't bother drilling the extra hole, but I also tried fitting the indicators without the third hole but they were far too wobbly.

Elmo Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 If you want to have a crack fitting them yourself, here is a very good guide. It's actually quite easy once you get going http://www.i-macca.co.uk/temp/How%20to%20fit%20Facelift%20front%20indicators.doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra-Woman Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Thank you kindly for the link Elmo, i dont mind fitting the headlights myself but when it comes to erm modifying bits of plastic to make them fit and wiring, i am rather clumpsy, pmsl.

Elmo Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Thank you kindly for the link Elmo, i dont mind fitting the headlights myself but when it comes to erm modifying bits of plastic to make them fit and wiring, i am rather clumpsy, pmsl. You can ignore the modifying bits of plastic bit as you have the genuine toyota lights, the lights in the guide or the cheaper ebay replica's. The only thing you need to do is cut the indicator bulb holders off your cars loom, cut the connectors of your new loom and join them togeather then wire up the sidelights.
