Hi Sienna,

Nice job on the Hilux with the steering wheel on the wrong side grin

I am not sure how well the aftermarket headlight will hold up after a while.

What do you think?

Thanks bud!

As for the headlamps, a friend of mine has had his for 5 years, and they're still in great shape, despite him being a keen off-roader. wink

Good job, Siena. You've completely bought me over. I will be contacting you soon to kick start the Citreon DS project. I want a restoration and complete upgrade with your personal touch.

I need to figure out how to get the seat belts clean, or replace them if there's no way to get them looking decent. This was a proper working truck, and it shows.

My 1-piece propshaft arrived today (thanks to RoughTrax). It looked pretty good, and of course I bolted it straight onto my truck.

I pulled my seats out of the garage, and began the task of making them fit the MK5. This involved grinding off the steel rivets that hold the mounting feet to the subframe runners, and drilling out the spot welds too.

I then cut the entire runners off the Hilux, which will be welded to the now legless Celica runners. I opted to use the entire Hilux runners, as the Celica seats are pretty low, and I'm not exactly that short. This will give some added height. I'll take some pictures of this process later to better describe what I mean.

Re: Siena's MK5 Toyota Hilux Customisation Project - "Apple Candy". by Nobody: 7:05pm On Feb 06, 2015
At last, I can actually drive my truck.

I installed the driver's Celica T Sport seat, after modifying the base to fit. I was going to weld the Hilux's subframe runner to that of the Celica, after cutting off the Celica's mounting feet. In the end, I went with high-tensile 13mm / M10 bolts, with matching spring washers and nuts.

I'm a bit concerned with welding the subframes. The seats have the seat belts bolted to the inner frames, so absolute anchorage is important, the consequences of the seats breaking free in the event of a crash doesn't bear thinking about. I lost a good friend of mine back in 2001, when the welded seat subframe in his immaculate Ford Escort RS Turbo S1 broke free, throwing him through the windshield.

He was in the passenger side with a laptop hooked up to the ECU, while his friend was driving. When the car was examined, the passenger' seat subframe had become brittle where it had been welded, and broke free. The driver's subframe had stress cracks, though the seat had not broken completely free, as the driver instinctively braced himself against the wheel just before impact.

The Celica seats are perfect for the Hilux, and once the driver's one had been bolted in, have the correct height ratio for a truck. The driver's seat is height adjustable, I have it on the lowest setting, and it's still more than high enough for me. The Celica seatbelt buckle is also compatible with the Hilux's seatbelt tongue. I was concerned I might have to get the Celica's seatbelt, as replacing the buckle with that of the Nilux would not have been an option, the Celica item has seatbelt warning, which I will need later.

I'll take some photographs later.
Re: Siena's MK5 Toyota Hilux Customisation Project - "Apple Candy". by Nobody: 5:58pm On Feb 08, 2015
Both seats are now fitted, and I located the passenger's door locking knob, which I thought was missing, so I was able to fit it, as well as the door card.

I'm going to post pictures showing the modifications to the Celica seats, which makes them a bolt-in affair in a MK4/5.
Re: Siena's MK5 Toyota Hilux Customisation Project - "Apple Candy". by Nobody: 6:04pm On Feb 08, 2015
The Celica mounting tabs are spot welded to the runners, and also employ a steel rivet on each tab, the front rivets also double as locating pegs. There is just one spot weld per tab. These are all ground off, these are the redundant tabs:

[url="http://s768.photobucket.com/user/NaijaGuy/media/Project%20Toyota%20Hilux/image.jpg3_zpswpixmhsp.jpg.html"][/url]

The Hilux runners are carefully cut off at the lower areas on both the inside and outside. You'll then end up with this:

Make sure you don't mix the runners up, they are handed, and unique to driver's and passenger's seats. Inners and outlets are also different.. Using your grinder, remove rough edges and burrs. There are 2 raised dimples on on each of the runners, these need to be ground flat.

The good news is, the measurements between the runners on both the Celica and Hilux are the same, at 46.5mm. Handy, as the cut and trimmed Hilux runners need to be bolted to the Celica ones.

The rivets that partially secure the Hilux mounting tabs to the runners need to be ground completely flat, enough to allow them to be knocked out. I used a blunt punch and hammer. The same must be done to the Celica runners. The holes left are then made larger, I used a 10mm drill bit.

Starting from the front, I bolted the Hilux runners to the Celica seats. They are in exactly the same orientation, from front to back. The bolt heads need to be cut with a thin cutting disc, to end up with a hammer-head bolt, regular bolt heads won't go through the seat tracks. The heads need to be flat enough to allow the seats to slide in their tracks. You could cut the bolt heads down with a Dremel or similar, I used a thin cutting disc on an angle grinder.

The rear bolt holes on the Hilux runners don't line up with those on the Celica, so with the fronts bolted up loosely, swivel the runners so they are perfectly in line with those of the Celica, then using the existing holes on the Hilux runners as a pilot, drill the Celica runners. This must be done with the runners extended fully to the rear of the seats (seats slid fully forwards) to avoid the drill bit damaging the sliders.

Once they are all bolted firmly in place (I torqued them up to 45Nm), you'll end up with this:

The 2004 Nissan Micra in the background is in for work. New front bumper, which I have to paint and fit, replacement ignition switch. It belongs to a Kenyan girl, she actually starts the engine by touching a lead from the starter motor to the battery positive! grin

It also needs front wiper blades, then an MOT. It's also got a furry layer of mould on the seats, seat belts, steering wheel and luggage compartment carpet. angry angry

Re: Siena's MK5 Toyota Hilux Customisation Project - "Apple Candy". by Nobody: 6:51pm On Feb 09, 2015
Ever since I got my truck back, I've had an issue with the rear lamps. I put this down to the rear harness being a bit messed up, after I removed the tow bar electrics. I was looking at a new harness, which worked out at well over £300 from Toyota.

I decided to pull the lamps out today, and compare the connections on the lamps themselves with that of my originals. Lo and behold, there was an incorrect pin layout on the nearside unit. After I corrected it, the lamps are working as they should. I also wired up the license plate lamps.

The stainless MK6 rear bumper came with a single lamp in the middle, though there are the usual cutouts for the twin lamp set-up. Interestingly, the MK5 lamps are a direct fit. I guess it makes sense, seeing as the MK6/7 also has a base model, which lacking a rear bumper, has the licence plate and lamps on the rear valence. All I had to do was extend the harness, and wire them up.

Tomorrow I'm booked in to have the headlamps aligned, as right now the beams can be seen from space. Time permitting, I'll fit the front wheel arch liners. I've only got one rear, the offside, and before I can fit it, I need to extend the fuel filler neck. I'm still on the hunt for a nearside rear, and most of the usual suspects only have Double Cabin models breaking, and I'm not sure how different they are to the Single Cabin version.

The hunt continues.

Excellent work Siena. I literally went from 'enh?' to 'wooow, as the interior began to take shape. Dunno if yhu will consider installing a stop lamp in the truck, touching the exterior is out of the question on this one I guess. And the passenger door has no assist handle? Great job once again.

Thanks bro.

I doubt I'll be cutting holes in the bodywork to install a stop lamp at this stage. I might mount a high-intensity LED unit in the rear window though.

At the time I took the pictures, I was waiting for paint to sort out the passenger door card, as I ran out. Since these pictures were taken, the passenger door trim and associated handles have been fitted. smiley

Sweet truck! Was first quite sceptical about the non -stock grill , but these new pics really do it some justice.

It looks kinda---high. Is a lifting kit in place? Can't wait to see some sweet wheels under those wheel wells - to complement the 'lift.'

Once the new wheels goes in, the truck appearance would be wow. Finally, the end isn't far. I really do admire your patience on this truck/job.

No suspension lift fitted yet. It has however had a 2" body lift kit fitted. I'm also fitting a 4" suspension kit, and the wheels are going to be pretty high - I'm looking at 31's or 33's.
