    DO they come in yellow?
    Just to get off topic, in the 60's, 70's fog light were always yellow , why did the start to install white ones?

    Just to get further off topic :), I liked it when France required headlights to be yellow.

    It made for an entire country of ugly cars, but at least there was little or no glare from the headlights of oncoming cars.

    You've piqued my interest, Danny.

    Remember when Japan had high beams that were yellow? (e.g. LS400) I guess that copied the SE/SEL too.

    What is the point - aren't these available today form Toyota/Ebay? Is there something special - or better cost? I don't get it...

    Boo,

    Judging from past (and present) Peugeots, Citroens and Renaults, I don't think the color of the headlights was the issue. :bolt:

    Does anyone recognize the blue printing on the part of the tongue of the cardboard box? Is that a box that might be an OEM shipping box? Anyone recognize it as an aftermarket supplier?

    Now if only you could be getting those mud guards as well...

    Wishful thinking for now, eh?

    Happy Holidays Danny!

    Because if you buy it through PC it benefits the website.

    Ah, I was under the assumption that for it to be a legitimate "tease", the deal had to be better price-wise than the alternatives (eBay,DIY). If this isn't the case it's less a tease and more a "for those of you looking for a more expensive option"

    That's my point - a good tease will peak interest, and gives a little more than a picture of *something* in a box.

    Something like "better quality" "better looks" "lower cost" - any of those would help - and someone from PC should at minimum already have a clue about all three...
