Heyo,
Just a quick question here. I'm in the process of buying a GT-Four from Alberta, and driving it back to British Columbia. Now, I need to get the car to pass a safety inspection in BC before I get any insurance coverage, and one of the many stipulations is that (as you may know), a bunch of lights have to be DOT approved. My plan is to source out a few items from a North American '94 Celica, whatever model I can find, and transplant them onto my future GT-Four. The items are: - Headlights, both high & low beam - sidemarker lights - 3rd break light. Now I've searched and perused many-a-posts, and read up on these two articles, but am not sure whether it answered my questions. http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=71851&hl= http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=76907 My main question is, will transplanting these lights work, and will the wiring be a quick and easy 'plug n play' ? Thanks for your time, Jeebus |

you may need to add usdm tail lights or rear sidemarkers to your list. i heard that if you're keeping the jdm tail lights, you will need to add red sidemarkers on the side of the rear bumpers since the jdm tail lights don't have the red reflectors like the usdm lights. some people end up taking them off after inspection.
also, if you need DOT headlamps, i have a set still sitting in my apartment in Calgary if you're interested. i won't be back for another 2.5 weeks though. -------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
