So I’m currently looking into converting my 94 st headlights to a projector style but I’m at a bit of a loss. So if I was theoretically able to get all 4 headlights off of a gt4 is it possible to just to replace the projector unit with an LED one that already has a cutoff shroud built in? What complications would come from this?

I used Morimoto RetroRubber a few months back when I had to open up the headlights and refurbish them a bit for my LeMons Celica. Worked fine, excellent reviews. Once I got the process down (bake, open reseal, re-bake), it was very simple.

Yes, and you can dispense it with a hot melt glue gun to do an even better job!

You need a glue gun you don't care about and a 7/16ths threaded rod to advance the butyl rubber in the gun once it's cut into sections.

ahh got it i see some butly tape on amazon for around $25. but wow that link for morimoto has it in grey like oem...

luckly the window guy at my dealership gave me a tube of his black sealant.

if youve got a big enough oven. you can easily fit both lights.

cook @ 250 degree Fah for 7 minutes and remove one headlight, separate glass and grab the last one.
