2 Qs: Stock tails on Toyota Red/PIAA headlamps, Your opinions and advice Options

[Celicav]

Question #1: I mentioned that I just picked up another 95 GT, this time it is Red Hatchback 5-Speed. I've thought about all the options for modding the tail lights, but for whatever reason, I think the all orange turn signals look just fine against the red body of the car. What would you do or think? Red it all out? Get the JDMs? Tint out like Jaws4God?

Question #2: Has anyone done any high end aftermarket fog or driving lamps that require you to turn them on and off with a switch button that requires you route the cord from under the hood and into the car (like PIAA). I did this on the Auto and found room to drill a hole through the firewall right in the area where the clutch pedal would normally be. However, with the 5 speed, there is so much going on under the steering column (clutch pedal area), that I am not sure where I could drill a hole and bring the switch cord from under the hood and into the car. Any other options? Please advise.

Thanks.

hmm check the firewall for the rubber piece you can 'poke' a hole thru. put a grommet(?) in there and pull the wire thru...if no grommet just pull it thru.

Answer 1: For me I would get the JDM Tail if you can afford it, or otherwise mod it. or leave it. Depending on your taste as well. If you like the stock look then leave it. You can always change it later.

Answer 2: I cant really answer this as my car came stock with fog lights. But there is another way of running wires through the firewall. Search for Shadowfx posts, he has a picture of him running the power cable for his amp through the firewall. Its in the Interior/electrical section.

Hope that helps and good luck
