Yeah, the regular (non-All-Trac or 4WD) Corolla sedan / wagon headlights definitely DO NOT fit! I went to a junkyard earlier this year and bought a headlight from a sedan... thankfully I was able to try it out in the parking lot of the junkyard, finding that it didn't fit, and got a refund right away. |

regarding headlamp..the angle of the lamp face is also different. I actually cut an opening in the top of assembly, large enough to fashion a tool out of clotheshanger wire with a soft cloth end..think of a large bent Q tip..and cleaned the rust out with it..then closed it back up..those lights are spendy and not easy to find at wreckers/junk yards... |

..also don't rub too hard on the reflector surface...took an hour or so improved it about 80% |

Thanks! I will try that. I was wondering if there was a way to crack open the headlamp housing so that I could clean it. I saw some metal clips around the glass/plastic edge, and thought maybe there was a way to open it up.
And welcome to the forum! |

Thanks! I just messaged him. I hate to have to ask someone on CL if they would ship an item (as you're not supposed to), but these aren't very common in my area... well, they're uncommon all-around really! |

There is a All-Trac parts car on Ebay. Located in Florida. Has alot of parts. Also All-Trac wagon north of Seattle selling parts on CL. I purchased the top spoiler and gauge cluster with tachometer for a really fair price. Good luck with the headlights. I found one from another All-Trac parts car they have in Shelton, WA. Their website is: http://www.awcaw.com |
