When I first saw this Carina TA60 sedan I thought the quad headlights were either originals (without the citylights) or taken from a Celica:

But I was wrong: they are from an Audi Quattro!

If you look close enough you can see the original sidemarkers are missing their citylights:

Two weeks ago a package arrived:

Package from Rinkya Japan!
It was sent through Rinkya (they get the stuff from Auctions Yahoo for you!) and took about 2 months by sea mail. It didn't matter it took that long since I was in no hurry, but I could have gotten it through airmail as well. :)

What was in it then?

Well packaged with foam and polystyrene
Well, a lot of foam and polystyrene! With car parts Rinkya is extra careful and packages it even better than you would do it yourself! Now that is professional! I can certainly learn from this with the AEU86 shop I guess...

But what's in there except for all that crap then?

A set of JDM Carina sidemarkers and citylights
Two JDM Carina sidemarkers and two citylights! I don't need the citylights but they were one single auction, so got them anyway...

Test fitting:

Looks like a perfect fit!

How the double headlights look now
Can't wait till I've repaired the brackets and fitted this set to the Carina! :)
(Only need to find the time to do so...)

Big thanks to Rinkya for arranging the auction just in time and shipping it so carefully!

Opened the package and found it was very well packaged:

I found that the frames of the headlights are a bit more rusted that I thought...

I think I'll make a template and try either to fix it (with glassfibre or welded) or to have it copied.

But in general these double headlights don't look too bad.

I found the grille being cracked on several places, but not beyond repair:

And last but not least, the full view of the JDM AA63 grille:


Only thing missing now are the yellow indicators.

Just got these two parts through auctions.yahoo.co.jp:


JDM AA63 Carina double headlights

JDM AA63 Carina double headlights surround

They are already paid for and will be picked up hopefully this week. Then I have to wait for the grille auction to end as well (somewhere tomorrow) and hopefully everything can be shipped after that. :)
