Here Echo owners do the injectors swap. Would it work (as in do some good) on the Yaris?

I removed the side skirts a couple of days back... Part of my new "simplify/lighten" philosophy:



It looks so tall! And check out the increased rear ride height from taking out the seats and crap in the back

Sorry, a post apocalyptic thought popped into my head when this thread was brought back from the dead five years later.

Let's see, What did you do to your car today? Worked on my RS fog lights this weekend. You can follow my build over time here if you prefer to.

They're supposed to be reverse lights though. They're too big. Let me find a pic

Edit: you'll have it by tomorrow. Too lazy to go down to the garage

Oh wait. I also cleaned my reverse bulb. It had accumulated 7 years of dust lol. (thats cuz the bulbs i bought didnt fit.) you will be surprised when you see the difference.

Before cleaning it:

It amazes me how dust accumulates in certain areas that would normally free of dust. Nice job!

HIi, haven't been on here sice February, I've been too busy with university. So here's what I've done since the last time I was on here.

Went from this....


To this!!


I also changed my instrument cluster, with a Canadian that CTScott sent me, and I also changed my HVAC controls colour from factory green to white LEDs.


I have also installed some new white halogen bulbs for my headlights (about 3.5€ for the pair) and they didnt wash out and they are awesome! Havent got a pic yet.
I'm still working on my LED conversion, I've bought some LED panels for the map lights, they are awesome too, I've also changed those little bulbs in the headlight (white LEDs) and put the same bulb in the license plate light. I also bought an LED bulb for my reverse light, ot has 100-ish smds on it, but haven't seen a difference from the stock bulb - apart from colour. Oh I almost forgot I also changed the trunk light, I will take some pics tonight!

I also have been working on my other car the Avensis, but it's a bit harder for me to get to the headlights, I guess when I really have the time I'll try again. Cheers!
