Where i can get the stuff from? Panel house on moss st in brisbane
Whats needed? plastic apron, chrome bumper, Sr5 Grill, radiator support, bonnet, headlights if you want SR5 style
Prices? shouldnt be any more than $800 for the kit
If its a DIY? Yes quite easily done yourself.

I recently put Sr5 lights in

Old lights, and stock side door mirrors

synergy what did those lights set you back? also you should strip the black off your grill and paint your badge black, i did and it looks sweet as.

hey synergy got a question for you. are those mirrors you put on go on the actual door or are they where the quarter glass is on some hilux's?

does that make sense haha

and mate to go from a 2000 model to a 02 model front youll also need a new bonnet and front quarters as the whole lot is different

so i guess youll need bonnet,front quarters, lights, parkers, bar, apron, grill and rad support. im sure there would be a few more things. just hunt wreckers, forums and panel house to gather all the different parts

the old ones look door mounted and the new one look like the quarter window ones

holy shit jai, thats why i got sr5 lights, the square one are to homo!

150each from panel house, unless u want projector headlights which were pretty kewl but cbf doing the wiring. The sr5 ones go straight in..

Did you use paint thinner to get the black off?
Jai
yeah man just thinners or metho works if you rub really hard. i either want sr5's or the chrome surrounds

This is the part number for the bracket that attaches the inner side of the headlight to the radiator support pannel

noone mentions this in the kit you need to fit the lights

Cost me $24 for the two from motorama toyota
