I agree! Getting them painted locally is quick and not that expensive. You also get the best results, since they match it to your car's paint.

I tested v3's on an 09 and they fit perfectly. I didn't need to change the design at all. Please post more pics of your awesome Yaris!

Any reputable shop should be able to match your color without issues. Just make sure they use enough flint to match your color just right.

There's no DIY per say, since the process is very simple:

1. Clean the areas with rubbing alcohol and let dry
2. Stick one side of the 3M tape below each piece
3. stick the other side on top of each lamp
4. press firmly on both eyelids and let them set 10-15 mins
5. Done!

Here are v2's on my v2.0 ... I gotta admint, the curve fit's 100% beter for the base than they did on v1.0 lol ...

Awesome work Treyz, I always wanted to see how the eyelids will look on an '09. Thanks!

another question...lets say we wanted to remove the lids with little to no damage...can it be done with a heat gun or extemely powerful hair dyer? would it damage both headlight and lid?

nice, treyz, awesome to see how well they follow the "kink" in the 09 headlights!

I can't tell you how many times I've taken mine off and put back on .. no problems at all. I'm running with version 2 of these eyelids which still has the base which was later eliminated for version 3.

1. Initial install
2. Removed, wrapped in vinyl, and reapplied
3. Removed for winter '08/'09
4. Reapplied for FL trip
5. Removed for trade in of '07
6. Reapplied for the new '09

You can easily do it yourself. Check out www.AutomotiveTouchUp.com for the supplies. Back in December I paid $19.95 for the spray paint (12oz) and $7.95 for the clear coat (12oz). They make it real easy to get the right paint. Total shipped to my door is $36.23. Color match was spot on. Look back through this thread for some of my other posts around the December, January timeframe. I have some pics posted and how I prepped them.

Good luck!

Heat is the trick to making the double sided tape easier to handle. Either do it on a hot sunny day, or use a blow dryer to heat the tape up and carefully pull them off slowly.

What version of the eyelids do you have?

[msfire671]

i got the ones from garm!
thanks for the reply.

[Treyz]

Lol .. yeah, the ones that Garm sells are from TK ... probably Version 3's then.

[msfire671]

got it on...gotta fix one side though..its a pita to get it off!
