  1. My cars an ep91, but in the back of the owners manual theres a spec section that has some views (front, back, maybe side) with dimensions lines on them, dunno if theres was anything similar in the ep82 manual EDIT: Info's! smcars.net is a car blue prints fourm, This is the Toyota section, and this is the result of a search for starlet in said section, they look like manual scans Looks like it's only the ep91 and ep7*, but there is a request thread for the ep82 blue prints, maybe somebody here could scan a manual in Just reading some of the posts, looks like you already know all of this norby (I presume thats you over there!)

  4. Maybe I'll start with that, I've got some other question I want answearing, I should really start my own ride thread! Like to share? Edit: Removing, the side plastic, yup wanna do that too!
  5. So a system like this could easily be removed before an MOT? What? don't look at me like that,.........
  6. Wasn't sure at first, put just painted over the grills in the pic above and it doesn't look to bad, I'm considering it My only worry is that there is a piece of metal that come out of the front of frame and supports the front bumper via those grill bars, will it still be firm/strong enough (don't want it bending/falling off), and while I think about removing the grill bars will leave V gaps where you cut them off, did you fill those gaps? Phoned the insurance bods, I use Swinton (like my parents) as brokers, but the policy is a Zurich one, they don't do modified cars, and my insurance has 6months to go before I get my 1Yrs NCB, so I'll get a quote off elephant in a few months time as they seem to quite good based on what people have posted in the insurance thread
  7. I just saw those exhausts and that image was the first thing that came to mind! Hope you don't mind!
  8. Wheels are for wimps! I think you exhausts rock
  9. Not got round to phoning up and checking, there's a few other bits I wanna get from Fensport, but I want to get them at the same time to save on postage (need to see if the insurance people want a kidneys as well as an arm and a leg!) I'll let you know StarletSi when I find out for myself Picy attached as promised
  10. I got the indicator lenses and repeaters, will fit hem when I have time and daylight, the guys ordered the wrong rear lights though I gave him the part numbers for the lenses, he said he worked back and got the right ones, but I think he just ordered the ones that went with my chassis number, which gave me standard Starlet lights, they took them back which was good of them Think I'm gonna try again from Fensport, they only got the one set of lights, but I think now the the clear backgrounds would go better anyway Thanks for all the help I'll let you know how I get on
  11. EP91, S-Reg(98 I think) Knew I was forgeting something!
  12. Somehow my rear passenger light got broken, while looking for cheap replacments I found this site, and rather than get the normal Starlet lights I've ordered (from Toyota) the reflect lights (number 4 from this thread) I also had a moment of weakness and ordered the clear repeaters and some clear indicator lenses, there's a FAQ on how to fit the repeaters, but I've no clue as to fit the rest! Opened up the bonent and there a screw that looks like it holds the indicators in, and there's some plastic covers in the boot behind the rearlights, if anybody could make my life easier by giving some tips I'd be greatful, thanks a lot Edit: The indiactor are just lenses, but I got the full units for the back lights
