First '07 Sport Spoiler on an '06 Solara!
I finally got my '07 Sport spoiler painted and installed!
Now I have '07 LED
tail lights and the '07 Sport spoiler.
(without the ugly '07 bumper to go with it!)

You can get them through the dealer for around 250 unpainted.

Re: First '07 Sport Spoiler on an '06 Solara!
How much do the LED
tail lights run? And are they difficult to install?
(Those '04 bubble lights are getting very annoying) >_<

About $250/set - takes about 15 minutes to swap 'em out - plug-n-play - but no back-up lights once you do. There have been guys who rewire and do relays and stuff to get the turn signals to light up as back-up lights and the stops flash on either side for turns. Too much work IMO - I just fly w/o them since you can't see sh!t out the back of the convert anyways!

Re: First '07 Sport Spoiler on an '06 Solara!
So there are no back up lights on the '07 lights, or they just aren't compatible with the '04 unless i rewire?

The '07 Solaras have the back-up lights built into the bumper- not the tails:
So if you don't mind NOT having back-up lights (like me) then it's a simple plug-n-play swap.
Otherwise, its going to take some ingenuity to rewire.

Re: First '07 Sport Spoiler on an '06 Solara!
Well, I could have a 1,000,000 candlepower flood light on the back of my convertible and it wouldn't do a lick of difference!
The design of the car is such that it's just about useless to try to see out the rear at all, unless someone is in a big truck directly behind you, or they are W I D E enough to see out both side mirrors.
One of these days, I'm going to get a Nav screen system and a backup camera. Personally, I think these should be mandatory items on this car, but oh well...
Good luck!

Re: First '07 Sport Spoiler on an '06 Solara!
Been searching for decent spoiler and found yours just the ticket. Know someone that works for a Toyota dealership and asked if he could get the Parts Manager to order one up. He's having problems with the part number. Any chance you can help?

Re: First '07 Sport Spoiler on an '06 Solara!
Sorry I don't have a part number... I just told the guy what I wanted and he got it for me. I'll try to see if he can look up a P/N for me and I'll share with ya!
