There are 7 generations of Celica. You need to be a little more helpful and state which one

the ones off a 1979 celica would look awful in an mr2!!!!

cheers for the help men much thanks thats what i was after

[turbo_87]

I have nearly completed this conversion, just adding the lacquer to car is left.

I would post a picture of the front when i had finished priming but sadly because i never really post on this forum i am not allowed.

Its very very time consuming though, took me a long time!!

[rsand85]

know what you mean its a pain!!i am indeed expecting a few head scratching moments cant be any worse than fitting the cage tho!all i was really after was to know how much structural stuff needs cut out of the inner wing and slam panel

[turbo_87]

I will update my project thread of mr2oc soon and will included the pictures of how much was removed e.t.c when i do that.

But lot of slam panel inner wing and bonnet has to be removed.

There is honestly a lot of angle grinding to do, and once thats done and the lights are in i spent weeks and weeks filling and sanding.

[rsand85]

im used to cutting bits away now already lost the whole boot floor and bulkhead doors are empty!aye the lights look a tricky one but im sure ile come at it some photos would be good tho much appreciated

If you put in "celica headlight conversion" into the search and click "search for all terms" it throws up a few hits. An interesting read anyway -one set of threads seemed to turn into a bun fight with the mods anyway.

...Allot of work involved so fair play to those done it. Not my taste at all but fair doos.

[rsand85]

ile have a scan at that cheers aye its not something i really thought about in the past had quad lights but fancied something a bit diffrent its on a racing car anyway so it will prob end up getting wrapped round a post or bent in some way

[RST]

If it's on a track car then is it worth the hassle? Better time and money spent on other things on an SW20 in my mind.

[rsand85]

just for the fun of it really got all the other bits sorted out so just though i would do something that doesn't cost a fortune for a change
