It would need alot of fabrication/bodywork.
You could (maybe) get the full front from a 5 and swap it for the 6 including all the light mounts/harnesses/relays etc. But you'd also need to modify the wings, the bonnet and the bumper. Not sure if they'd line up properly anyway as I doubt the angle of the 6 bonnet is the same as the 5 bonnet. without seeing them both next to each other and seeing where/how everything is fastend in, its difficult to say just how much work would be involved. I am guessing alot though. End of the day it is upto you and depends how much time/money you have. Anything is possible with the right amount of money. |

it would be sweet if like they didnt flip up, but there would be these covers over them and you hit a button and the covers would slide up real fast like those sci-fi doors in Star-trek. Then same thing for close. And make the sweet sound also. THAT would be cool!

The body styling of the 6th Gen is almost the same as the 5th. 6th Gen is just a bit more rounder. The headlights are not the separating factor of a 5th and 6th gen. They have a totally different body style. That is why these lights do not look good on the 6th gen. Square lights do not blend in with the sleak styling the 6th gen has. -------------------- Past: V6 Swapped 6G Celica, E46 BMW M3, Jeep Wrangler TJ
