Oh so that's your car! I was wondering who's it was. I would love to see more pics please. Hmmm I'd probably leave the reverse lights out until i can find a place where i would like them.

Definitely 94+. The design flows better. I always confuse Gen3 Camry back lights with the 91-93 MR2 lights.

From far away, I'm always like, "Oooooh an MR2." Then I get up closer and it's a freakin Camry.

I don't know about you guys, but I don't want the back of my 2 being confused with a Camry. Thankfully the Gen 3.5 Camrys changed the MR2 look-a-like rear lights.

Newbie question here....How did you mate the early panel with the 94 lights? The early is square and the later panel is rounded.... Did you get the dremel out and start carving?

My car is white, I just bought some 94+ tails, the center is coming in black, should I put it on until I can paint the car? or paint it white?

My vote is for 94+, depending on the style the car has gone, I like both center panels. I personally will go with the 94+ panel.

I like the Rev. 6 lights! I've got them on my 91 and I get rave reviews. Check them out in my member garage.

Once you've dremel it to fit, there's going to be gaps at the top corners of the grill that are Noticable Up Close, but if you want that oem freshness just slap on some fiberglass.

I like the 91-93 taillights for now.
I also like the 94+, but i hate how the reverse lights look in the centerpiece.
Is there a way you can get the reverse lights in the taillight itself?
Here are some picks of taillights with the reverse light in them :

If those are Alteeza tails, and they sure look like them, then you'll regret mounting them - and I don't mean because of their looks. Their quality isn't anywhere near Toyota quality, they're cheap-ass stuff that belongs on a wrecker.

yeah, i just like that the reverse light is in the taillight.



After seeing the picture above, it convinced me to get 94+ tails. Maybe its because my MR2 is white too =)

I guess I'm in the minority but 91-93 or custom ftw... I used to love the 94+, but after seeing them more and more they remind me of rsx lights and they take away from the car's flatness.
