mark.supra Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 just purchased clear front indicators from ebay for my 1995 supra, managed to fit them but need bulb holders and possibly wiring if i cant adapt old wires. Can anyone sugest where to purchase them from or part numbers. : : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supRo Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 yup, I believe envy have the revised loom/bulb holders. What I did with my new style clear indicators, is cut off the bulb holder recess from the original indicator and glue it on to the new one - just need to widen the bulb holder hole on the new one. It means I can use the original bulb holder which screws in and out as before. Just need to get orange bulb (£1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 You should have put your names down for the group buy for genuine Toyota indicators, instead of buying supposedly 'cheap' copies off Ebay If you do the maths it actually works out more expensive buying off ebay Lights = £32.99 Postage = £8.00 Wiring Loom = £32.81 Total = £73.80 Compared to genuine Toyota ones on the group buy which include 2 x wring looms and all bulbs for £65/69 delivered to your door. There is still time to get your name down on the group buy if you send order form/money today. If you miss the group buy and want some in the future give me a shout as I should still be able to get them at a very good price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suprarob Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Nic I thought the toyota indicators had the orange bit in them? Loom part no. P Y81515-14390 £11.97 each 2 looms inc vat = £28.13 subtract my usual 10% discount=£25.31 you guys really do go to the wrong toyota garages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have clear lenses, with chrome reflector and orange bulb inside. the ornage bulb reflection on the chrome reflector makes it look orange but the lens is definitely clear. Just the same as the ones on ebay. The indicators on ebay are not genuine Toyota ones and if you compare them are not as good quality.

suprarob Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Nic I bought these indicators earlier in the year the quality of them seems fine to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supRo Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Thanks very much that sounds the cheapest option,CHEERS yup, I've been heckled before - people thinking that i glued the old bulb holder itself on the new one and laughing that I won't be able to replace the bulb without un-glueing!!! It's just the bulb holder recess from the old indicator unit that I cut off - it sticks out a bit. I then made the main bulb holder hole (there are two on the new one) slightly wider. I then simply glued the old bulb holder recess onto the new one - So the old bulb holder screws in and out as before. Time to cut the bits - 5 mins. Glueing - 1 min Had to get the standard bulb replaced with an orange (£1 each) as the bulbs that you get with the new indicator are different. Works a treat. Although only using 1 bulb on the new one - it flashes more than adequately. Gimme a shout if you need more info. Cheers, Ro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looking out for fellow members with advice Nothing against them, just pointing out the facts. I must have read 5 or 6 posts in the last couple of months from people who have bought them asking the same question, "how do I make them fit?" Just think it is false economy, as you have to mess around going to Toyota to get the wiring looms and if you add it all up there is little or no saving to be had and it's not even a genuine Toyota part! I'm sure if I'd bought the lights thinking I'd got a good deal and then found out that I need to mess around asking questions how they fit and then get told I have to go to Toyota and spend a further £33 on wiring loom I would be pretty pissed off. Have a look at the advert on ebay is there any mention that you need to purchase wiring looms from Toyota to make them fit? I think it is valuable information for any other members considering buying the lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually preferred doing it the way most have, as you get more pleasure out of achieving something like buying and making them fit yourself other than just plonking them on and handing Mr.T the readies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suprarob Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Nic I know you are giveing advice from your point of view I,m putting the point forward that the wireing looms are not £33 from my local toyota garage they were £25 If I was now in the market for the indicators I would have probably gone for this group buy but when I was looking it was over £75 to get genuine toyota indicators so I saved myself a tenner and after putting these on I am pleased with the result Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
