CorollaNut68 Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 I've been looking for rubber and things for my KE10. I see a rubber kit at RareSpares for $600+ which has everything but the rear quarter windows. I see a 5 piece, front and rear windshield plus doors and trunk for $119 on ebay, same guy has aftermarket front side markers which I need also. I would have to get the bailey channels and other things separately. I guess my question is...has anyone used either of these two options? Any fit or quality issues? Also ...the side markers on my KE10 did not have lights in them, can I find those somewhere? And one more...would the Aussie drivers side mirror fit the passenger side of my US model, I would like matching mirrors on both sides. (not out on the fender, but by the windows) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorollaNut68 Posted May 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Whoops, just saw the previous discussion on the rubber stuff, but still want to know about the mirrors and side markers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67Rolla-Ken Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 just found this. The aftermarket side markers off ebay are rubbish, don't bother. Haven't tried the mirrors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorollaNut68 Posted July 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 I went ahead and got the side markers from ebay, they are a bit cheesy but I think overall they look a lot better than the nothing I had. And for only $14 worth the try. One of mine got smashed 25 years ago and couldn't find another so I just shaved em both. Nice to have something back, these are lighted though and I think stick out a bit more than the original unlighted ones I had. I'm not putting the bulbs in these, just using the base and lenses. I'm slowly getting the crash damage from last month beat back out...need a little welding here and there but looking pretty good for no filler yet. I went ahead and stuck it back on for now so I can drive...it's been 102F in the shade the past few weeks so I'm not spending much time on it lately.

67Rolla-Ken Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 Good work. I would keep an eye out for NOS genuine Toyota lights. They come up more often than you would think ;) The front of that guard looks almost as bad as mine did, mine were stretched so thin and out of shape that I had to scrap them and find replacements.

Project Sprinter Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 I have a KE17 - which shares some common rubber seals with the KE10. This is what I have done and they all worked: Doors, front windscreen and rear windscreen - all bought from Phil's Rotaries. Bailey channel and weather strips - from Scotts Old Auto Rubber Rear side "flipper" window seals - Phil's Rotaries (ok but could be better) Boot seal from eBay retailed Livadee Cowl seal that goes under bonnet - Livadee also Bonnet bump rubbers - Phil's Rotaries Front Quarter Windows - Rare Spares site said they have this, so I duly ordered to find out the delivered product was nothing of the sort. If you find somebody who has some tie them down and call me please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
