Fitting AE101 Headlights into AE102 Mon, 22 August 2005 08:56 Go to previous message
i bought some AE101 headlights from a user of these forums (who bought them for his rolla but pranged the rolla before he got the lights)

I have an AE102 Corolla Seca, which as far as I'm aware they are same chasis as the AE101 (just a 7AFE instead of a 4AFE).

Now I went to install the headlights this afternoon, but there are a couple of minor differences.

These are the two headlights:

This is the new headlight, notice how the grill "clip" faces forwards:

This is the old headlight, notice how the grill "clip" faces upwards:

To fix this, i guess I have two options; to get an AE101 Grill that uses those clips or build a custom grill. The new Headlight looks slightly more rounded on the inside, so I'm fairly sure I woun't be able to use the standard grill?

This is the base of the old headlight, notice the clip method:

This is the base of the new headlight, notice there isn't a clip but there is a buldge there.
