headlight covers

I have a pair of original headlights and headlight covers that came with the car. Was woundering if i should sell them or store them really. I have no idea how much they are worth or how rare the covers are :S

I'd say keep them, like I did with the suspensions.... you never know when you'll need a backup!

Like me, I always keep the OEM lights because I'm always messing with them, so I need the backups on the car while I'm working (like will be soon on the IS300 )

The covers can still be purchased brand new from Toyota (or at least they can be over here anyway), so they're not exactly rare, but they certainly come in handy. I had some a while ago and didn't like the look of them when they were fitted so I sold them, but when I recently purchased a brand new replacement set of BZ Touring headlights from Toyota there was no way in hell I was going on long trips without a set of headlight protectors because I'd probably cry if I got a stone chip on my new, shiny, expensive headlights, lol. So I use mine every time I go out of town now. Worth every cent just for the peace of mind alone

thats true i didnt think about using them on long journeys thx for the advise and yeh i think ur right ill kepp them and use them when going long distance awesome idea

I really like that idea... protect my old head lights

yeh i never really thought of it tbh but is such a good idea especially if ishaq wants me to drive up to nottingham some day :p hehe

This is what my headlights look like with them fitted:

Ooooo nice! Very subtle. Why not just leave it on all the time?

yeh that does look good

Thanks. They produce a bit of glare/reflection when fitted, so they take away from the overall beauty of my shiny new headlights . So around town I leave them off so that my headlights are seen in all of their glory, plus if I leave them on overnight and my car is outside for the night, condensation builds between the cover and the headlight, which takes a while to clear up on it's own.

these are rare here in the uk lee,
also the eudm ones are different to the usdm and jdm style iirc,

i dont think your current ones will fit your new lights...

got any pics to confirm though?

Yeah, the Euro corner lights are flat, the JDM ones have the bump on the sides.
