    Lol, don't worry, it's an easy mistake to make. It took me a while to get my head around it. Yeah the rear one on your car will definitely help :cool:

    Pretty much. I had to cut out the blank piece of plastic with a stanley knife, but apart from that everything was ready to go. Here's a photo of what it looked like before I cut it out (don't mind the arrows) -

    On the Lexus or the Corolla? Lol.

    I've got a PhotoBucket Pro account so I like to get my money's worth [IMG]. All of the images can be viewed on my CarDomain page however ;)

    The arrows are just pointing to where the eyelets are for the clips to go into which hold the filter door in place.

    He was being sarcastic.

    Yeah, on the Corolla. Of course the Lex has the filter, but I never thought it possible on the Corolla!

    And why does it not surprise me that Scott pays for a free internet service lol.

    Your Corolla will have the provision for the cabin filter (as long as it has A/C) but it won't have the hole cut or the door fitted. I sent a cabin filter door to Adam in the US and he fitted one to his at the same time I did :cool:

    Haha, the reason I upgraded to pro is because I post the photos of my car on so many different forums (as you know, lol), so the bandwidth kept getting exceeded. No longer have to worry about that happening :)

    Yeah, I post all my pics from cardomain so that I don't have that problem. I figured that if my PB account exceeded the bandwidth, I could just sign up for another account haha

    Haha that's a good idea. I also take photos of car parts for overseas customers, so that chews through the bandwidth too. One nice thing about having a pro account is that there are none of those annoying ads :mad: :cool:

    yes I only asked because you said not to lol. We like to joke here, not like TN. It's cool you're a mod there but you should still not forget about us.

    Jeez, you take more pictures of you car than I do, and I thought I took alot. Lol :D
    Honestly the only thing i think your car needs is a 20v swap. I would make love to the pictures youd post.

    That would be a high value car if you ever decided to sell it.
    I have a feeling your gonna find some rare OEM trd wheels or something soon.

    Haha, yeah I'm rather obsessed when it comes to taking photos of it. I had only just finished taking the last photo when it decided to piss down with rain, so it was quite good timing really. The 20v swap is creeping closer and closer up the 'to-do' list. I think I'll start a '4A-GE fund' to bring it closer to becoming reality :cool:

    This ol' girl is with me for life ;). The sentimental value outweighs any offer that could be put on the table.

    Yeah I'd hate to think of how much I'd put it on the market for if I was ever crazy enough to sell it (not that that's ever going to happen). Wouldn't mind some TRD wheels on it. I literally have no idea what's coming next, but lets just hope it's good! :D

    I agree, wheels and engine swap are still on your list.

    I guess you don't have to deal with salt on the car and rust? IMO, the 2 killers of a car is accidents and rust.

    Nope, no problems with salt or rust here. Fortunately where I live it never snows, so there is never any salt on the roads.
