Reflet Rear Lenses & Induction Kit

I got round to installing the Reflet rear lenses I ordered from Toyota a while back. The last time I installed lenses from another Starlet they didn't stay on properly, so I was determined to get it right this time. After a few modifications to the old lens holder I managed to get 4 out of 5 screws to fix in correctly, although only 2 line up correctly. This made a huge difference and made the seal complete all the way round the lens now so there shouldn't be any problems.

I also purchased some more Enigma indicator bulbs for the same Blue effect I have on the front indicators, I'll take some detailed shots of this soon.





Here is the inducation kit I created from leftover free parts stuck in my cupboards. Turned out ok I think, doubt it makes a difference to the performance, but it sounds kinda funky which is fun.

Glanza Sideskirts & GLS Dials

I got round to fitting the Glanza sideskirts I bought when I purchased the bootlid and rear bumper, I personally think they look sweet fitted, only problem I have now is that the front end does not follow the lines of the Glanza bodykit.



GLS Dial Cluster


I'm looking forward to having a rev counter again, it's so annoying having to listen to the engine when to change gear and guess. I think I may need to do some re-wiring on the dials but I have the diagrams from the Toyota workshop manual so it won't be too much of a problem.
