mkiii lights
So I'm new here, im picking up a 1986.5 supra 5spd, na, this weekend, Ive seen some cool pics of other mkiii's but was wondering where I can find aftermarket headlights, and tail lights, thanx for any help
|
there are no aftermarket, taillights every made,
but people have made custom led ones, there are som for the headlights, there are right, not that great.. |
thats cool, thanks for the info, i'll prolly just buy the 1991 styled tail lights, and eventually id like to find vented headlights
|
It's surprising they never made aftermarket tails for it. I always liked the tinted tails tho. Loved it on the Cobra, looks pretty good on the mkiii :D
|
Actually, there were some semi-mass produced aftermarket tails made for the MKIII. They were only available in Japan and were all clear. From what I recall they were pretty much the same as the 89+ tails but replace all the red plastic with clear. They looked kind of cool on the white car I saw pics of, but the other color cars I saw pics of I didn't really like much.
|
Did they still have amber signals? I thought by law all cars in Japan had to have amber signals. Thats cool tho, I'd like to see a pic!
|
By law they have to have a certain percentage of red as well... I didn't say that I thought they were street legal. Half the aftermarket lighting accessories available here in the US aren't legal for a car parked on the street much less being driven. ;)
I'll look through the pictures I've collected over the years and see if I have any of those tails. |
Thanks. I'd be curious to see em! I remember a guy from Japan but my 99 Cobra tails because he had a terminator and the 99 was the only new edge style that had amber signals. He gave me $250 shipped no questions for em. I was like WOAH.

Here's one I've always liked quite a bit:
Attachment 2708 It's a Gains tail light cover. I don't know if the tail lights on that car are the clear ones I've seen or if they've done something with the stockers for that look. EDIT: Okay, dug up some info. The clears were made by a company called Takakaira (website is down). They are not very pretty... I forgot thinking that they looked like they were covered in fish scales. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...aDoom/0021.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...om/itomi70.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...oom/clears.jpg And there are some VERY cool LED conversions out there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IB3SA8IVnow |
same type of car as mine. color and everything. interesting to hear the color is rare.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C24YJXTIvBY&feature=fvw nice to see what it would look like with rims and that hatch cover on the back. maybe not nice to hear the color is rare. mine needs a paint job and i want the same color. maybe this will or will not be a problem of availability but price. |
