Clear Indicaters

[mudzs]

I have asked this before and got no answers but someone must know can you buy or convert the yellow lenses on the mk1 gs300 to make them clear .

I also want to do the same with mine.. I have looked to see if i could get them undone but I have not found how yet.. if the are bolted somehow then i cannot see how..

Is is something along these lines?

I am talking about the front indicater lenses they have a yellow look that i would like to make clear. i also want to do the side repeaters like grims post suggests but would like to do fronts first.jac114 the side lenses just clip out put a screwdriver on a peice of cloth or several peices of paper to protect bodywork and prise out indicater.

[jac114]

Cheers Mudzs I was worried about doing that in case I cracked them... Do you know wher you can buy replacement clear side repeaters for it..?

Cheers

Check out grims post they are the best i have seen

Jac, the ones in Grim's post will not fit your car, they are for the US spec GS's which have the side light in front of the wheel arch and are larger. European lights are more square and are fitted behind the front wheel arch.

So be careful!

Mudzs,

Is the yellow you can see when you look into the lens coming from the bulb? If it is you can swap the bulb for a silver one which flashes orange. That will make them appear clear.

If their is a orange lens in there it may be possible to break it up through the bulb hole and remove. Then fit the silver bulbs in which flash orange?

Just a thought?

[mudzs]

Thanks for the advice i will give it a go

Has anyone gone the other way, and replaced the indicators on the UK model GS300 Mk1 with the more orange unit that you see on US cars? Can you get replacements? I quite like them.

Andrew.

HI MUDZS

JUST TO LET YOU KNOW IF YOU TAKE YOU TIME WITH A PAIR OF LONG NOSE PLYERS AND WIRE CUTTERS YOU CAN BREAK THE ORANGE REFLECTOR UP INSIDE THROUGH THE BULB SOCKET. IT TOOK ME ABOUT 20 MINUTES TO DO BOTH. MAKE SURE YOU GET THE SILVER COATED bulbs TO GIVE THE ULTIMATE EFFECT. :D :D

I believe you can actually just heat them up and then remove the orange inside bit...... I'll ask Wildrnes to post a better reply when he's back

:D Hello Everbody, nice day, Ive sorted the repeater indicator lights, my local store does LED repeaters in a variety of colours, I went for black, they look cool! They are oval and stick on, they are big enough to cover the hole and plug in to the extisting fitting although the earlier ones have to be connected but not difficult. Cost me £19.99. I think that Ive seen them in Halfords.

Hope this helps (GS300)

mmm Halfords home of bolt on crap they sound very much like the ones boys stick on their saxos and fiestas

[Scorpion]

Why not get the new LS430 clear indicators with silver vision bulbs that flash orange

Part no:81731-51020

[DLJ]

I like the bit bout Halfords **** but only said that I thought that they where there, but these actually look pretty good, I think the stores are called A1 lots of them in South Essex but these LCDs must be all over the place.

PS if you want touch up sprays you can get that in Halfords mixed for you, try and get that at Lexus!

Will look at the others mentioned though, always willing to learn, have to at my age!

Well I managed to pick up some side repeaters at J.A.E that I liked. Good old toyota with interchangable parts..lol

The are toyota Corolla ones.. :D

Think they look much better than the orange ones..

Jac

Will attempt getting the orange out for the indicators soon...
