More than marginally easier. WAY easier. Like nearly plug n play, if you can bake a cookie from a tub you can do the swap.

You don't need thick ass cable, even just bumping up to double the thickness of OEM makes a massive difference and is overkill. I think mine was using 12ga wire maybe 14ga, vs the stock 16 or 18ga stu...

the 100W bulbs aren't going to last very long either, they burn so hot that the filament gets very fragile. Make a harness even if you're using stock wattage stuff, it makes a big big difference. Big ...

If those are the housings I'm thinking of then they're too shallow for 'plug n play' threaded shaft projectors and you've got space constraints bad cause of the pop ups. If they're the metal and glas...

Yep, I'm hoping it's some magic elixir for me as well, I'm in the process of claying all the horizontal surfaces on the Celica today and then I'm going to buff the whole thing down with that stuff and...

When the detailing bug bites you again, check out Carpro Essence. It's a filler/glaze kind of product that sets up to make a really hard layer bonded to the paint that fills in halograms and light scr...

I'd grab the Stoptech pads for the front, EHT for the rear, and see how you like the Stoptech as daily street pads. They might be OK for you, but I tend to abuse the Celica brakes a little just cause ...

The Stoptech would be MUCH better for autocross. The EHT I do not think are as fade resistant, the stoptech have a 1200F max temp rating and I've been unable to fade them. The EHT I have not tried to ...

You can't scrape together $5,000 but you want a car with 500hp? Those two kind of go hand in hand. Either you buy something more expensive that's got closer to 500hp already and put some money into it...
