#3352 of 3934 HID Conversion Kit - 04 Solara by solara_pa Apr 27, 2004 (11:33 am)
Have '04 SLE. Anyone have any personal experience with a HID conversion kit for the '04? Most of the kits available will come with HID d2 bulbs rebased into H11 bulbs which will fit into the normal Solara low beams. H11 is fairly hard to come by in re-based HID yet, but's it's out there.   My concern is that most of the importers selling them want a 20% restocking fee or have no return at all. HID bulbs are longer in length sometimes then the regular halogen bulbs... With Toyota's "HID wanna-be" elliptical dome that the bulb goes into, I'm concerned the HID bulb could actually go in too far and bang the front of the dome and not lock in. I'm not willing to spend $450.00 to find out they won't go in thanks to the shape of the '04 headlights.   P.S. Not interested in the non-HID halogens that claim to be 4,000-5,000k in color temperature - cause they're not!   Any thoughts/experiences with real HID?   Thanks
#3353 of 3934 "title fee" by solara_pa Apr 27, 2004 (11:42 am)
LFM and PA folks in general   Just so you know -- PA title fee is $22.50. That $55.00 is called a "documentary fee." It is NEGOTIABLE and not a state required fee. It is the result of a "gentleman's agreement" between the dealers' associations and the commonwealth which sets the maximum (up from 40 something to 55 recently)--- this fee is for the dealer's expense to prepare all of your paperwork... I know it's only $55.00, but I love how they try to make it look like a state required fee....   next time tell them they already made enough!
#3354 of 3934 lights by oxmead Apr 27, 2004 (9:54 pm)
I don't see a need for HID lights in the 2004 Solara. Would the HID's be that much brighter? As is, they're the brightest lights I've ever had in a car. People are always flashing, thinking I have the high beams on. Especially when the fogs are on. It's kinda weird that the lights only shine on the road and not higher than about 4 feet of the ground. It's like going through a tunnel.

#3356 of 3934 Left pull problem by banditcosmo Apr 28, 2004 (9:20 pm)
HI, I might be buying a SE Sport v6 (trying to buy it for under $21,000) and I've test driven it and I have not noticed a left pull. Does this start over time or should I notice it right away ? Thanks, Tony Replies to this message: labattsjf (May 04, 2004 2:30 pm)
#3357 of 3934 My 5 months old '04 Solara has some noise by zhutou Apr 28, 2004 (11:20 pm)
Since the engine is quiet. I can feel the rear window and ceiling shake when the road is bumpy. Does anybody have the same problem. Seems it only happens around 40 ~ 50 mph.
#3358 of 3934 Why was the convertible topic closed? by mfullmer Apr 29, 2004 (6:52 pm)
Is post 3357 about a coupe or convertible? They are oh so different I feel they need their separate (already have) topics! Replies to this message: jjx456 (Apr 29, 2004 7:23 pm) Mr_Shiftright (Apr 30, 2004 4:57 pm) nuieve (Mar 23, 2005 9:12 am)

Replying to: mfullmer (Apr 29, 2004 6:52 pm) It's not my post, but I would assume it's the coupe, since the convertible hasn't been out for 5 months. Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Apr 30, 2004 4:57 pm) nuieve (Mar 23, 2005 9:12 am)
#3360 of 3934 Thump by jkpsaras Apr 30, 2004 (4:55 pm)
Have a 1 month old 2004 Solara SLE V6 with the 17 wheels. I'm noticing a thump noise when the rear wheels hit a bump. Sounds like it's coming from the rear shocks. Has anyone else noticed this?
