Post a picture of your TOM`S racing pedals. Ps, I can rig up a blue ignition ring for you if you want, I have 2 spare clear rings, Toyota stopped putting them in Celicas after 1995, What I did was take a splice from the cigarette lighter power and run some wire through the dash plastics.

I dunno I might just put a new bulb in (since its not working at the moment)

I think your ignition ring plastic might be black with no transparent bit....
Here's the difference, 1996 on the left, 1995 on the right:
PS. When I looked at my pedals closer it had some stupid chinese on the top and levin(???????) on the bottom, definitely not TOM`S ... Eww.

The SSII isnt good enough??? hahaha j/j
If he doesn't want to spend over $700 for SSIII ones. Whats the difference? cant say i have seen them side by side. I just thought the front was different.
delusionz
Oct 23, 2008 - 8:29 PM
The trademe ones I've seen around, the splitters and rear endcaps from that cheap trademe kit look like TRD but the front splitters on the TRD ones have holes in the front (air dams or wateva).
Rusty
Oct 25, 2008 - 1:26 AM
haha actually saw a curren today with the kit, but looked like it was the standard kit (because it was an oldy driving) also notice how many more curren and celica's are in my area now. THERES HEEAPS!
the SS-III run longer and are thiner, were as the SS-II one is shorter and fatter. (both front and rear)

I looked into Projectors, CPA in Wellington offered me a set for $880 brand new, NZD, I thought that sounded like a lot at the time. Bad call...
