Guigsy Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 i love my glass. always nice and shiny It depends on the car though. the pre facelift silver is too light to pull off the black headlights imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Glass look the nicest for sure, no yellowing, ever Personally I'd go for a new set of glass ones, split them then paint the backs graphite. Although on a silver car going with the darker colour backs isn't really worth the effort especially with a brand new set of lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz6002 Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Well I prefer facelift lights personally the glass ones look at bit dated IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter richards Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 i was a bit surprised jamie , i did push him to see if that was his best price , and he said thats what hes getting them at , so unless i can get a used set which is unlikely ill hang on a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martini Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 This is a bit stupid, and I have tried to find examples to get to the bottom of it, but could someone post a picture of pre-facelift and facelift models? My headlights are HID and bright white, but the full beam ones are a little yellow looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Having had glass, glass refurbed with matt black backs, and facelift, i'd say the facelifts were the nicest. The layout of the lamps looks nicer than pre facelift. I'll let you make up your own mind though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev.O Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 spoke to steve today and the price is £318.78 inc vat and delivery. Toyota have stopped the 'loyality scheme' (where you could get up to 20% off most parts). You can now only get the discount if you buy the parts through the service department ie Toyota make on the labour also. I'm wondering whether Steve can't get away with offering the discount anymore, due to this reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
