Alteration of rear optics ... - Toyota Corolla, 1.4 liter, 2000

    Toyota Corolla 14 2000

I had an idea about a month ago to remake my taillights in the "ala Audi" style, that is, insert LEDs into the rear optics ... I could not decide on this for a long time, but I decided and I already managed to make one headlight ... how much nerves and effort I spent on it ... but I am satisfied with the result)))
Please do not judge strictly, everything was done with my own hands and for the first time))))
but now only I have such headlights))

By the way, in reverse gear and turn signals, too, diodes are only in the form of light bulbs, they shine very well, especially in reverse gear, it is almost indistinguishable from xenon, you can see it in the last photo.

Duck, I agree that it is brighter, but this one doesn’t even shine very badly, they have a glow power of 4300 kelvins, directly if you look at them, they also blind, especially at night, well, in general, everyone has their own opinion, but I like how they shine)

super as angelana in my opinion looks. Can I ask the headlight how did it dismantle it on its own sealant, or did you stick it in from the inside?

L
LavrovKostya 28.02.22

it’s not on sealant, it’s actually soldered to the block from the factory, so I carefully soldered it with a knife along the edge (melted it) and then put it on glue and sealant when I assembled it back.

The lantern in the original is not very clear when the clearance is on and when it is stop. And this solution is interesting.
