Did it end up fitting? Any issues with the connectors from the original canister?

I've done this conversion from a 99LC to an 03+ JDM toyota steering wheel from an unknown model. It's an involved procedure, helps to have a second steering wheel column harness. Additionally, airbag connectors, airbag charge, clock spring, various clock spring wire ends to splice into. The...

Inspected the existing connectors and found these two part numbers, ended up ordering complete pigtailed connectors rather than the OEM pins as it was cheaper: 90980-11151 / 90980-11664 for the large one 90980-10895 for the small one. They do appear to be Type 2.3II female pins, in case anyone...

A few days ago I posted a thread about a wire ID leading into my driver side fender after some rodents ate my wires. A few days later, the rodents returned and decided I shouldn’t have ABS anymore. They chewed a ton of wires, and I want to rebuild the end of this harness as it’s pretty...

@fil1983 great tip, thank you. I pulled the gusset as a whole and voila, it is indeed the plug for a lock buzzer. My LC never came with one so I didn’t notice the lack of functionality after the wires were cut. I’m thinking of fixing the break and adding a buzzer from an LC to join the rest of...

Had a rodent chew some wires under my hood and am in the process of fixing them. This bundle of two blue wires coming off what looks like the ABS harness were chewed. They lead inside the fender on the drivers side. Are these just ground points? If not, what do they lead to?

Agree with @2000UZJ - that inner high beam pocket could be put to better use. I went with 3” Auxbeam cubes in mine that have a DRL/Amber backlight function, ended up matching the amber to my side marker lights and Diode Dynamics ditch backlight.

I've done this retrofit using the one-piece 1999-2005 plastic housings which are in the same style as the 2006-07. It is pretty straightforward, you can see them in my post history. The DEPO housings I used may be slightly different than the OEM Toyota housings. The sketchiest part is widening...

Parked next to an 80 series buddy in Hillsborough today. YOHB?

Happy to send you the ball adapter. The dashboard plate itself is from Ben3D, and the fitting is a Ram mount snap-link. Feel free to PM

Nicely done! She is coming along very well. While you're in there, look at the rest of the vac lines and replace as needed - mine also had a few with micro cracks in them and after replacement the idle is much smoother.

Missing this one as well unfortunately.

Took the cruiser all the way to the banks of the Ohio River this weekend.

Got some Diode Dynamics ditch lights mounted up and the switch panel wired to run an amber circuit.

Designed and 3D printed a mount for the new Auxbeam slim switch panel as I wasn’t the biggest fan of the chunky rectangle panels. Completed my headlight retrofits using bixenon projectors and an Auxbeam light in place of the high beam. Designed and printed an alignment jig and mount to make it...
