where is that place?

please PM me the details of them thank you!

cheers

I'd like to know this too.

I cant imagine it'd be cheap! Those things are made using moulds, i dont think it'd be easy to just take your old lens in, and get them to "knock up a new one" !

I'm sure there is a place ... a spray painter friend of mine told me about it one night when I was winging to him about wanting new lights cause of how dodgy mine are ...

i'll give him a call ... see what he says ... I don't think I'm dreaming it up but you never know :ermm:

hey ... I spoke to my mate ... the name of the shop is plastiques or plastics <--- something like that ... there in Arncliffe NSW ... he reckons you can get them made up for between $100-150 each >_< (which ain't to bad really)

Apparently you either take your lenses/ lights in to them or send them in and they will have them ready in a day or so ...

hope this helps you guys

Could this be the one? Someone local wana give em a call?

oh my god sorry i've just read the entire thread you guys are retards like unbelievable!!!!

ok, the reason your lights look like ass on the inside is cos of corrosion from the elements, it happens,

drilling a hole in your light will allow more water vapour into your lights thus making the matters worse as condensation builds, not to mention cause your headlight globes to blow due to condensation / oil residue on in your headlight unit...

so please, silicon seal this back up and admit you stuffed up. cut your losses, and start again with a wiser idea...

you must now take the headlight apart,

all you need is 80degree heat and 8 minutes max, check it, you should be able to wedge the tip of a butterknife in to get you started... if it's still not budging, put it back and check, use the buter knife to get you started then gently GENTLY GENTLY pry the unit apart with your big manly hands.

if your oven won't fit it then use a hairdryer / heatgun, once you've got it apart, polish it all up with a plastics polish, make sure you do this by hand otherwise you will melt the delicate nature of the plastic.

once it's clean on both sides, reseal the unit all back together by DELICATELY using a silicone sealant or sikaflex...

don't stuff this up, if you're worried you're going to stuff it up then don't do it... MAKE SURE THE UNIT IS 100% sealed before it goes back, and remember, as with all glue and sealant, LESS IS MORE

DON'T OVER DO THIS.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
