In the USA version of 1987-1991 Toyota Camry we got the standard
non-upgradeable headlight reflectors (in a proprietary shape) with 9007
bulbs. I'd like to upgrade the bulbs, but the glass in the standard reflector
is so poorly ground that installing brighter bulbs results in simply blinding
oncoming traffic. And the contacts for the bulb are so tiny that the
increased current of a brighter bulb simply melts the plastic connector
housing. (Can you say "Where did I put that extinguisher?")
While e-code replacement lamps are available for many models of car, as far
as I can see they're not available for the 87-91 Camry. Nonetheless I'm
curious to know what style of reflector and bulbs were in Camrys delivered to
countries (including, of course, UK) outside N. America.
Thanks,
