Toying with LEDsπ‘ . . . . Yep...the HVAC is Havoc. Very very tight areas. Again the LED legs weren't long enough for a direct replacement...so had to take the same approach I did with the Window Switch. This was pretty difficult since the LED legs sith within a plastic tunnel. I could have taken the LED tunnel holders out amd soldered from there...but it was kinda a hassle to pop one out and then realign it and the LED legs for reassembly. So I have these ugly looking "welds" because the plastic tunnels were starting to melt during the joining. π€¦π½ββοΈ...but they work. And it's tucked out of sight anyway. So if you plan on doing this and want a drag and drop job...get LEDs with legs at least 2". ββββββββββ£β£β£βββπππβββββββββββ #Toyota #ToyotaCelica #ToyotaCelicas #ToyotaCelicasOfAmerica #Celica #6GCelica #6GCelicas #3SGEBeams #3SGERedtop #BeamsRedTop #JDM #Celicaclub #CelicaLife #Celicafamily #Celicalove #DropTopCelica #RHD #T200 #ST202 #CelicaNation #LEDSwap #LED #HVAc #AcControls #LEDConversion #UVLed #UVLight #LEDWork #LEDLights #ledlighting βββββββββββββ£β£β£πππβββββββββββ https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpf0yryPwE6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Playing with LEDsπ‘ . . . . Wasn't a direct replacement... Found put the LED legs weren't exactly long enough to reach the solder point...so I just decided to snip the OEM head off and solder the new LED directly to the old legs...its not the most glamorous job...but yep it worked...given the limited space to work in . I'm 50/50 on the results. The purple output is hard to see (in photo) since it's UV...but it has that deep purple output thats not pink...And well...its essentially a blacklight. I will probably have to experiment with other LEDs for because I'm not too keep on doing the Speedo and HVAC in the UV LEDs...π³ it's essentially staring into a black light for extended periods of night driving.

Plate frame installed . . . . Took a minute to get this special plate frame mounted...the biggest challenge was 1) The rear view camera for the mirror and 2) The 360 panoramic camera...after a little dremel work and hole drilling...I was able to get the frame set as well as both cameras set.

Camera mounting π π π . . . . No more dangles or gaff tape. Finally going to mount these cameras up. The rear view mirror camera is the bulkiest of the two but couldn't be installed until after the special license plate frame is installed. The 360 panoramic rear cam wasn't too hard...although it's on an offset install. ββββββββββ£β£β£βββπππβββββββββββ #Toyota #ToyotaCelica #ToyotaCelicas #ToyotaCelicasOfAmerica #Celica #6GCelica #6GCelicas #3SGEBeams #3SGERedtop #BeamsRedTop #JDM #Celicaclub #CelicaLife #Celicafamily #Celicalove #DropTopCelica #RHD #T200 #ST202 #CelicaNation #LicensePlateFrame #HideawayPlate #RearCam #LicensePlate #LicensePlateCover #RearCameraMount #RearViewCameraSetup βββββββββββββ£β£β£πππβββββββββββ https://www.instagram.com/p/CpTLtNTpPa3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Coming Soon π₯... . . . . Well...this was a process...mainly due to the fact that I dont have every proper tool at my disposal...but managed to secure these ST180 power mirrors...In the SAME color...it could work as is colorwise since My top is black...so a black/red scheme wouldnt look too off. Initial fitment tests...seem ok...the drilling was a pain...trying to line up the cuts in the same exacted mirrored spot...(I think im a couple mm off)as well as making sure theres clearance was the most important thing...somehow I think I should have left the mirror in prior to drilling...but well see in a few on the test fit to see if it's a go, a fail, a semi fail, or gotta make it work. ββββββββββ£β£β£βββππ«ππ¬πβββββββββββ #Toyota #ToyotaCelica #ToyotaCelicas #ToyotaCelicasOfAmerica #Celica #6GCelica #6GCelicas #3SGEBeams #3GSE #3SGERedtop #BeamsRedTop #Celicaclub #CelicaLife #Celicafamily #Celicanation #Celicalove #DropTopCelica #RHD #T200 #ST202 #CelicaNation #Mirror #MirrorConversion #360Cam #360Camera ##panoramiccamera #Mirrorcamera #Panoramic360 #ParkingCamera #BlindSpotCamera βββββββββββββ£β£β£ππ«ππ¬πβββββββββββ https://www.instagram.com/p/Co-Sno-rfre/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Getting the chirp chirp . . . . So now getting the remote start and alarm installed. Debated back and forth on who to go for...but got great reviews from the Excaliber Line. Didn't do the two way option...mainly because if I opt in for the Linkr...I can start the car anywhere in the US and can GPS ping it at anytime. No need to get a high range remote...I'll always have my phone. ββββββββββ£β£β£βββππ«ππ¬πβββββββββββ #Toyota #ToyotaCelica #ToyotaCelicas #ToyotaCelicasOfAmerica #Celica #6GCelica #6GCelicas #3SGEBeams #3GSE #3SGERedtop #BeamsRedTop #JDM #Celicaclub #CelicaLife #Celicafamily #Celicanation #Celicalove #DropTopCelica #RHD #BubbleEyes #T200 #ST202 #CelicaNation #Excalibur #ExcaliburAlarm #OmegaCarAlarm #RemoteStart #Linkr #LinkrMobile βββββββββββββ£β£β£ππ«ππ¬πβββββββββββ (at Car Tunes Stereo Centers) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co2loXOp2-g/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Another shop fail discovered... . . . . So...back when my car was held hostage...lol...I told them that along with the fuse issue...the antenna doesn't work...so it was always up. The verdict was that the motor is blown...but guess what I found when I was running my rear cam wires...the π© was unplugged...and when I plugged it in...it worked...sadly too little too late since the car washed destroyed what I thought was a broken antenna motor. π€¦π½ββοΈ Maybe I'll go with a stubby now. ββββββββββ£β£β£βββππ«ππ¬πβββββββββββ #Toyota #ToyotaCelica #ToyotaCelicas #ToyotaCelicasOfAmerica #Celica #6GCelica #6GCelicas #3SGEBeams #3GSE #3SGERedtop #BeamsRedTop #JDM #Celicaclub #CelicaLife #Celicafamily #Celicanation #Celicalove #DropTopCelica #RHD #BubbleEyes #T200 #ST202 #topless #CelicaNation #RadioFail #RepairShopFail #BrokenAntenna #Noπ‘ βββββββββββββ£β£β£ππ«ππ¬πβββββββββββ (at Belle Isle, Detroit) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co0ya5apVni/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Now loading...πΉ . . . . Little by little, piece by piece, ill get it done. Weather hasn't been friendly lately and (still) trying to get myself in better spirits...but so far I got the mirror unit mounted and power routed. Next steps...run rear cam wires, mount rear cam, mount front cam, nip and tuck all wiring and then...see if I will go the custom mount for the unit or keep the piggyback off oem mirror setup. I kinda want to reduce the bulkiness by making a custom mount...but that's the last and final step. ββββββββββ£β£β£βββππ«ππ¬πβββββββββββ #Toyota #ToyotaCelica #ToyotaCelicas #ToyotaCelicasOfAmerica #Celica #6GCelica #6GCelicas #3SGEBeams #3GSE #3SGERedtop #BeamsRedTop #JDM #Celicaclub #CelicaLife #Celicafamily #Celicanation #Celicalove #DropTopCelica #depressionsucksπ #T200 #ST202 #topless #CelicaNation #WolfboxCamera #DashCam #RearViewCamera #dashcamera #ISeeYou #MirrorCam #12v βββββββββββββ£β£β£ππ«ππ¬πβββββββββββ (at Detroit, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/Coyeru-uiAs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Gauge Galore . . . . This Bluetooth ODB2 reader is working out nicely...only gripe is I'm going to have to reposition the ODB2 port because I will continue to kick the reader off getting out of the car. I Haven't jumped deeper into the rabbit hole with this....but having data points as RPMs, Temp, Oil, Vac, etc is amazing. Once I get this infotainment center buttoned up...ill jump into some of the features the Torque app offers...like I'm curious to see my 0-60, 1/4mile times...in my current state. ββββββββββ£β£β£βββππ«ππ¬πβββββββββββ #Toyota #ToyotaCelica #ToyotaCelicas #ToyotaCelicasOfAmerica #Celica #6GCelica #6GCelicas #3SGEBeams #3GSE #3SGERedtop #BeamsRedTop #JDM #Celicaclub #CelicaLife #Celicafamily #Celicanation #Celicalove #DropTopCelica #RHD #BubbleEyes #T200 #ST202 #ODB2 #CelicaNation #Infotainment #TorqueApp #ECU #DASH βββββββββββββ£β£β£ππ«ππ¬πβββββββββββ (at Detroit, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoxmDDppQPh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Gauge life . . . . Still playing around with the Torque app. Eventually, Ill make a personalized screen with the gauges I need...and and getting some data points off the car as she sits currently. Also looking into repositioning the ODB2 port because with the module attached it sticks out too much.
