>That looks great Jess - 2 things, and I'm sure you've mentioned the one already in this build somewhere, but

(1) How did you get your 7th Gen Seats mounted?
(2) It's kind of hard to tell from the pics, but how did you modify the rail in the back to make it mount lower? Being 6' 6" - I'm very interested in this... although I don't have a sunroof on my GT-S so its not that big of a deal I guess...

Hopefully this helps with the 7th gen questions

better pics.. of lowering

The brackets are smaller than before. I tried my best to put some support on the bottom sides, hard to see in the photos but they are strong.

That's what you get for being tall and not 5'10" like me. Who's laughing now? Good job though. May have to do that on the passenger side, my brother is on the tall side and I have the sunroof.

Is that a vinyl decal on the rain shield or were you one of the lucky ones to get the TRD etched ones?

So did you end up getting different seat brackets to mount your 7th gen seats??

I don't have any factory amps in my car anymore so there is nothing under the seat

Well done on the seats I have spare '98 seats and a 7th gen that might be going for scrap soon. If I didn't have SS-III seats then I would be tempted.

no flight today so I got some more done..

PROGRESS:
-Figured out wiring for power fold mirrors
-Worked on the gas cap relocation body work

Fooled around with my power fold mirror's I've had for years and haven't gotten around to installing.. mock wired them up, just gotta install them now






Also got some work done on the gas cap relocation..

The wiring for the mirrors is straight forward, but the hardest part is just running those two extra wires through the door harness, all the way across the car, and back through the other door harness lol

Got a new rear quarter to weld in when I feel brave enough and also worked on my sound system a bit..

You have the premium sound system but, do you know if all the celicas come with the bracket for the 8in speaker? I want to do this exact same (putting kicker subs in there) once I'm done with the rest of the car.

the bracket itself is the same IIRC for all the cars, its the individual speaker that is a different size.

fixed the threads for the DP and bolted it on. Berk Tech really has an amazing product, worth every single penny!

This is the DP I want for mine. It looks great! Is this the 2nd or 3rd version? Do you think it wouldbe worth it to get the ceramic powdercoated version?

#293

Its the 3rd gen version, the powder coated one looks nice as well and isn't much more expensive, probably worth getting that one since it will keep some heat in better than the plain stainless..


Progress: pictures say it all..

Where are you going to run your wire harness through? The normal port where the 5S harness goes, or are you going to punch a hole in on the driverside-ish?

The motor I got was already swapped into a celica so the harness was already extended to go through the stock 5S spot, so I'll just run it through the same spot.
