when I got my 4.88's out of the 94 runner I also took the headlights,corner lamps,grill, and front bumper. I hate sealed beams So i figured I would see if they fit. After removing the sealed beam and bucket I test fit the 94 headlamp not a direct fit but an easy mod. I love the newer front end look.

is it just my imagination or does the 'yota logo on the grill look freakishly similar to the batman?
'cause you can't see the loop at the top or bottom of the oval....

 

Wow thats funny That may be a new mod lol

 

You got a daytime pic with the bumper on? Looks good.

 

I do ill post them later I took pics of every step.

 

I think the exact same thing everytime I drive by the salvage yard, did you just have to trim a little for the housing to fit? What did you pay in total for all those parts?

 

I actually got them for free. Well i bought the 488's for $200. and when I got there I told him I was taking front and rear bumpers and grill. He said ok
There was some trimming of the core support(minor) and some trimming of the grill two of the mounting taps dont line up so I broke out the hacksaw.

 

In all honesty I like the "TOYOTA" symbol better, Shows our heritage better then a big ass T



but it looks good.

 

Looks good. I'm more partial to the looks of the '91, personally. The oval "T" just looks funny, IMO.

 

Looks really good! It has an updated look now. I would like to see some additional pics!

 

yep, we're ready for your install pics

 

I would love to do that, but i love having clear headlights to much. and i don't know how the internal reflectors compare to the 92+ Aero headlights with 100W bulbs.

Love the new look.

 

Good job! But I have to say, im not a real fan of the output of those lights.

When I drive my girlfriends 95, her lights are pretty bad. That is, compaired to my hella e-codes...

But good job on the changeover, my parts guy did the same thing with his 4runner.

 

Thanks guys I am going to do a full write up when i get back from Rausch Creek this weekend!
I agree the beam is not directed as well as the seald beams so I am going to do the HID2 install next.
I think 6000kelvin should brighten it up plenty

 

Looks good. I've been wanting to do this. What kind of bulbs do the new housings use?

 

Thanks.
It uses a 9004 bulb

 

I was planning on doing the same conversion to my 90 pickup. But I have too many projects! The shame is I found a really nice set of JDM headlights, grill, and clear corner markers with the bulbs and pigtails. So if anyone is interested I have them up in the misc. classifieds section right now.

 

lol it looks bug eyed... but thats sweet

 

autopal h4 bulb conversion

 

39.95 Pilot replacements, reflector optics, SilverStar bulbs (still going after over a year).
