Pro5 clear front markers
Did the search. Seems that the ones from Celica would fit with minor mod. Couldn't find which year Celica, though. The current one has yellow bumper markers....
Which years is the Celica part from? Thanks.

.... Found the info having looked some more. Anyways, it's 2000-2005 Celica. Contrary to what other people said, I didn't have to remove any bumper material. What I did was I removed a piece of the elevated rib in the middle of the lens itself, and mounted them upside down. I didn't bother with any grommets, since the OEM lenses didn't have any there either. I used a combination of 2 washers an a nut on each of the two bolts on the new lens. The larger washer was 1.5" outside diameter. The bolts are M5, if I remember correctly. There is a small crack under the length, which you can't normally see from the top. It's about 1.5-2 fingernails wide.
As other people said, it's a major PITA on the passenger side due to the washer tank's protruding bits.

quit dissin'
Yes, I know the APC frosted ones look better (less ricey), BUT these I could get locally for $40 Canadian, the APC ones would be like $100 US after all the shipping. One must think whether it's worth it. Besides, the look is still more harmonious than the factory amber patches. I'd replace the bulbs with clear, but I don't want to be stopped and get a ticket for wrong colour bulbs.
