jesus .. don't spend $55.. just 1 min in a warm oven will make the front ones clear..

to make your facelift indicator lights clear.

get a small philips head screw driver - you'll need this later.

1. take the indicator lights out of the bumper.
2. heat the oven upto about 200 deg c. (gas mark 6)
3. put the light on a baking tray - put in the oven for about 30 seconds.
4. take the lights out of the oven. Prise of the clear front lense (the glue will be soft)
5. you will see an orange square lense. this is held in place by a small philips screw. remove it.
6. do the other light cluster.
7. put the parts back onto the tray and heat them again for aout 15 seconds.
8. remove them from the oven and push the clutser back to gether again so the glue seals them again.
9. Let them cool
10. Using a kebab stick or similar implement, use a pieve of absorbent paper to soak up any condensation or moisture in the lense.
11. you mith want to use soem clear sealant to just seal the edge.
12. using either orange bulbs, but preferably silver vision ones, replace the cluster.

all done - looks cool ! 30 mins tops !

for the side ones just get some avensis or corolla side repeaters from MrT. costs about £10 over here - so maybe $20 there. again get type 194 silvered bulbs that flash orange..

btw you do this at your own risk - if you neeed adult supervision ask for it !
don't try and sue me cos you damage yourself or something !!
