Question Regarding ES300 Headlights
Guest
Posts: n/a
I'm wandering if the ES300 (any year) headlight (with "Projector caps") Assembly could fit into a Camry 2000 model? If it's possible how much would this cost and etc.. I'm thinking of putting it in and make my Camry part Lexus and part Toyota hehe it's a monster! :-)

The projector lens headlamps are not directly interchangeable with anything other than a '92 to '96 ES300. They must be installed by a bodyshop that specializes in custom work that can modify the front end of the Camry to accomodate the new headlamp assemblies. So it's certainly possible, but as you know the degree of possibility increases the more $$$$$$$ you have to spend! 
I've seen Preludes with BMW headlamps and grille! I'm sure you can find quite a few of these shops here in the Bay Area.
Tip: go with the lamps from the '95 or '96 ES300. They have the newer, better-looking smoked housing. Check www.taprecycling.com regularly for used assemblies. BTW, wouldn't you think that the headlamps would go better with the rounded '92 to '96 Camry rather than the newer angular Camrys ("Camries"?)? If I were you, I'd retrofit the Xenon HID lamps from the '00 ES300. Not only will the look match, but you'll see far better (forget about them 'blue' bulbs). later

HID and projector headlamps
Hi I was searching for projector headlamps for ES300 for days on the internet already and I came up with nothing. So just wondering if anyone has any kind of info or has any experience with it.
Also, about the HID. Has anyone installed a HID and has anything to say abt it? (a HID i was interested was around $500CAN http://www.mccullochhid.com/)
And I was thinking abt purchasing a dash kit, but it seems like it's just a sticker...
$163 for a Basic Kit
$25 for Steering Wheel Trim Strips
$35 for Chrome Rolled Edge Exhaust Tips

Another question~ (sorry i got so many things to ask) I was wondering about getting a car bra. But I don't know where to get them and how much is it? can I install and uninstall by myself?
