Spend some time over the weekend tinkering, and fitting some parts I had accumulated over the winter.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
First up, I bought some brand new Toyota fog lights, OEM, and did not want to run the risk of the glass getting chipped by stones, so fitted Lamin X protective film to them.

Great product, you would not know its there unless you looked real close.

Next, fitted the new windscreen cowl I ordered from Toyota.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
The old 22 year id one was pretty weathered and no amount of
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
'back to black' would make the difference.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Its amazing what a brand new part does to the way a car looks.

Seeing as the old wiper arms needed to come off for the cowl, I replaced those with two new ones as well.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Old ones had seen better days, stone chips and a bit of rust.

May get them refurbished or dipped.

.keep them as spare.

And then on the best bit of the day.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Ever since I have owned the car, around 13 years, the windows have always rattled when half way down.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Not really thought too much about it, but inadvertantly fixed it yesterday!
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
I ordered up two new window seals for the drivers and passenger doors.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Again, 22 years of weathering/cleaning/polishing had taken its toll.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
I could not be ar$ed with restoring them, so opted for two new.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Spot the difference!

The two brown furry bits, clipped onto the trim, had completely rusted away.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Am guessing they are nestling at the bottom of the door somewhere.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Had a quick look but could not see them.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Anyway, fitted and the difference is amazing.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
The windows travel up and down so much more smooth, no rattles, and by the looks of it hold the window firmer in position, I reckon this could also be attributed to any leaking T-Bar seals out there.

Finally, I know its strictly not JDM, and more USDM, but always liked the
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
'turbo' badge.

You don't see too many around sporting them so.

Finished off with a clean and polish, took her for a blast, blow out the winter cobwebs and put her back to bed ready for the next sunny day.
