Rid of the yellow...! - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #61250 15 posts Started by supaneko
So, after going to the Woodward Dream Cruise, I decided I gotta do a few things here 'n there to make my Celica MY Celica. I've been huntin' for many parts but have had little luck.

My next item on my agenda: GET RID OF THE YELLOW. I want clear markers, clear corners, or even some better tail lights.

Does anyone have some handy pictures of the JDM tails that would fit on a '95 ST liftback? I think I have seen some pics but I don't know that 100% (honestly, when I looked at the pics I saw, I couldn't understand what made them much different than the USDM).

I also can't seem to find clear corners or clear side markers. Ms. GriffGirl definitely pointed me to some clear corners but they show the bulb and to me, it looks a little tacky. Anyone have some good suggestions?

The standard JDM tails you see for the hatches will fit your car.
Here's an old thread relating to removing the ginger insert on the JDM rears- best finished off with a silver bulb for full effect

Clear side repeaters(crystal type) I believe are easily available, and if yours is a pre face lift model, for the fronts you might like these..

So I definitely like those clear corners and they are definitely what I had in mind. But it's finding them that's hurtin' me... Where can they be found?

Anyone have some good pics of the JDM tails? I saw a set on eBay but as I said, they didn't really seem that much different than the USDM and thus, not really something that a lot of people would have if there was little change.

USDM tails. Sorry not a direct shot of the back.


And JDM tails


You can clearly see the difference between the 2. Hope this helps supaneko. smile.gif

Aha! So it looks like the JDM tails are definitely something I was looking for (looks like the turn signal portion is clear?).

And where in MI am I? Walled Lake. Not too far from you, sir. smile.gif

Wolfie, I would like to take you up on your offer. Can you ship to the US? Paypal will convert the currency, I do believe. biggrin.gif If so, please PM me the details you would like and anything I would need to get the payment on over to ya.

EDIT: So the price is a bit steep, but would these fit on my car? JDM ST205 Tail Lights

Just a wild thought......In the last few days I've made some sets of clear USDM style front side repeaters for the Supra MK3 and was wondering whether by any slim chance they're the same size a the Gen 6.

The dimensions of the lenses are 144mm x 30mm....
