What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Clearly, you aren’t giving it your best effort. Bend at your knees when you lift.

 

And it really isn't a mod because he would only be buying it IF he lost one of the others. Or, if he bought the front rail. then technically the front rail is the first mod. So much wrong in this world!

 

1st service and oil change at the dealer today, 2,012 KM

 

Is there an easy way to get to the license plate bulb connector to replace the bulbs? I could get my hands on the connector but couldn't turn it to remove it from the socket, so I gave up...

 

Guys come on. Most expensive due to the price of that thing. ‘Twas a joke. Loosen up!

Oh I thought it was clear we were just playing along. Seriously though those things are stupid in price. I got the front rail and didn't bother with the end caps because of the price.

 

Pulling this Corolla home...oh, and added the TRD shift knob, mudflaps today.

 

Lol. Tell me about it. ~15 bucks a pop man and I needed two. If not for my OCD I would’ve just left it alone.

 

Take a screwdriver or plastic pry tool and pop out the clear housing. That’s what I did. I almost gave up too. It’s much easier to do it that way. Good luck.

 

Moisture helps.

I also removed the rubber band around the casing and wet it then put it back on the casing, and it took no time to get it back on. After a couple of hours I figured this out.

 

There are excellent threads on both in the lighting section.

 

Sound deadening on all 4 doors and behind/under rear seat and floor storage.

I want to do this, the sound deadening, to all of my vehicles. I’m jealous.

 

Like Monoman said, easiest is it just use a pry tool and pop out the entire housing. I wanted to avoid that due to having the glare reduction plates but ended up losing the drivers side bulb in the housing when trying to twist it back in and had to pop out the housing anyway. In hindsight it wouldve saved so much time and hand-ache to just go that route first

 

I have had the speakers and material to do it for over a year. I only found time because I broke my hand and am on work leave. But I do not recommend doing all that work one-handed!

 

How much was it? $27?
