Clear Corner Headlights
Seems like the European's and Japanese got the headlights without the amber side markers. Anyone know where we can source these? I hate yellow lights.

Correct me if I'm wrong...but on the Yaris the front reflectors are integrated into the headlight assembly...do you really want to pay a minimum of 400$ just to get rid of the yellow reflectors?
Europe has clear corners because the law there is different, in north america the front reflectors have to be yellow and the rear ones have to be red. I agree with you tho on the fact that clear corners look better...I guess if you really want to buy these headlights you can always contact an european's Toyota dealer. I don't think they will make aftermarket ones for the north american market...it wont sell ( a lot of $$$ for the little difference). Just be patient, maybe a compagny will make aftermarket projector headlights. |

Im not sure if im 100% correct but I think in canada the reflectors can be clear, I think the only law is on marker lights, the 'bulbs' have to be either yellow or red. Dont quote me on this.
They are integrated into the lights.... CAN ANYBODY TELL ME HOW TO REMOVE THE HEADLAMPS!!!! Ive pulled so many clips and screws im afraid the car will just crumple into a pile and yet the light still doesnt come out. |

In Canada, each province have their own law for vehicles on the road. I know that in Quebec, you can't have clear reflectors...it has to be yellow on the front and red on the back...I guess it is the same for the rest of the Canada.
It is still not legal if you put a yellow or red bulb...the reason for this is that reflectors are made to reflect the light of other cars on yours...not only to make your light look yellow or red. |

Yeah, I dont know. I know I can buy aftermarket rear tails for my 70 chev pickup that are clear where as the stocks are red and have never had a problem in my area. I prefer clears one way or the other, I have been told by cops they arent legal but have never got a fix-it ticket.
