So that picture isn't your car then?

thats a very nice jammer you got there, well wear mate. Its the diesel 220d SE-I 174 bhp, is it the lower emmision version?

Sorry this is not an estate/wagon/kombi only a saloon , but i do not think there is any difference.

You need a photograph of right hand drive (uk) speedo and rev-counter . estate/wagon/kombi version ?

Photoshop? for today yes but I got 3 broken grills by house and I will to do something like that but inside will be black matt with chrom stripes ... so lower bumper gril will be with chrom stripes too like in first upper photo B) Sounds cool, how did you get so many grilles so quick? I like the idea of the chrome on the bottom grille, but i'd just go with black on the top grille thats what i want. I have led lights under the fog lights but want to change them for longer ones and more white. take some pictures and let me know how easy/hard it is to remove the grille.

Photoshop?

2005 Avensis Key fob has stopped working won't lock/unlock remotely ..... the red led on key lights up when you press button but locks don't open. The red led in car still flashes when car is locked manually. Is it somthing simple like change battery or worse If i change battery does the key need to be reprogrammed? Thanks in advance

... or someone crazy with crazy mind ;) yeah, they are crazy samurai :) I will be hunt for a few broken grilles and I will try to do something like that Good luck, you crazy guy! I have seen those grilles on japanese auction sites for around 200euro plus postage . I'm just going to paint my grille black or buy a black one i think it looks as good as the chrome effect. heres a site to wet your appetite http://www.geocities.jp/avensis_style/off-2009-01.html What's the deal with covering their eyes? It's not like they are doing illegal hight time street racing or something! what you mean with this "illegal covering eyes"? maybe my english is not perfect, I don't understand tha japanese like to cover their eyes for privacy and legal reasons heres a grille i found on yahooauctions http://page11.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/n61613632 its made by a company called G-Square

"Go for 6000k bulbs, white light with very slight blue tinge, as close as you will get to factory option. The lower the rating the whiter the bulb, 5000k is pure white & would blind you depending on supplier. Remember your car has to pass its NCT at some stage if not 4 years old yet" I read somewhere on one of those charts that 4300k was what car manufacturers use , as for the tinge of blue,my nct centre failed me for having white leds as side lights because there was a tinge of blue to them. he said i might get mistaken for emergency vehicle!!!!! so i want to make sure the new hids are white. speaking of LEDs does anyone know if cheap white leds look a bit blue compared with expensive white leds?

Does anybody know what the colour temperature of the OEM HID's on an avensis are? as i'm getting some fitted and i want them as standard as possible.

Heres a link to a japanese site showing what the japanese do their "European toyotas" http://www.geocities.jp/avensis_style/event-1p.html

Hi there are plenty of importers in the uk , most of them specialise in bringing cars in from japan but i'm sure they can be convinced to bring a van in, money is money after all. i've seen some nice hiaces on http://www.tradecarview.com/ they give you all the info about importing your self . for a 2008 model minibus your looking at between £10,000 to £25,000 in japan , then add on £1000 for shipping and then whatever taxes and charges you got in the the uk like vat and customs and then you'll have to get a sva and and mot , and then if you want to convert to a camper another £5000........ all of those prices are approx........ nice lookin van
