^^^ that is very interesting and an option that I have never heard be available here in the states. It baffles me how many more options and extras all this corollas had over seas versus here in the states. Cool feature to have never the less.

WOW VERY stock 7TH GEN WHERE CAN I FIND A AIRFANTASY KIT? ...I WANT ONE Thanks. No idea where you could find another one unfortunately, as they're incredibly rare. Probably the rarest AE101 optional extra out there. I bought my one at my local junkyard last week for a measly $20 NZD ($15 USD). My heart almost stopped when I saw it, haha. Never thought I was going to see an Air Fantasy unit in real-life, let alone own one. I'll keep my eyes peeled though in case I come across another one, but somehow I doubt that's going to happen. Here's some more photos of it: KIWI BRO IF YOU FIND ANOTHER KIT AT THE JUNKYARD WITH EVERYTHING ILL NEED TO MAKE IT WORK AT THE JUNKYARD GET IT FOR ME AND PM ME LETTING ME KNOW YOU HAVE AN EXTRA KIT ILL SEND YOU ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY YOU BACK AND SHIPPING ....... HOW MUCH YOU THINK 40?

HOW MUCH YOU THINK 40? Haha, no offence buddy, but if I found another one then I'd be looking for much more than $40 for it. I know some people who would almost literally give me their left leg for one . I have a higher chance of being struck by lightning than finding another one, although anything is possible, so if I find another one I'll let you know

Does yours have the power seat feature? Unfortunately refills for the Air Fantasy are no longer available. I got someone to get in contact with Toyota Japan, but even they don't stock them anymore. Fortunately the scent packs I have are quite full, but when they eventually run out I plan on getting a generic air freshener refill and using a syringe to extract the liquid from the refill into the Air Fantasy scent pack (a bit like refilling a printer ink cartridge). As for the seats, mine are from a Sprinter GT (same seats as the Corolla GT) so the bolsters are slightly larger, but apart from that they're practically the same aside from the pattern Nope, mine don't have the power seat feature. The car I got the Air Fantasy and Air Purifier did though. I was trying to get the seat out so I could remove the mechanism and motor to put on my GT seats, but I couldn't remove the seat as I couldn't get to the bolts (couldn't just move the seat forward as the junkyard cars don't have batteries in them, or a key for that matter haha). I tried getting it out with a 14mm spanner but couldn't get enough leverage. Could still go back and give it another try though. Might get the headlight switch too as it has an 'AUTO' feature on it which makes the lights turn on automatically when it gets dark.

Those are nice man!!! Is that an original Toyota factory option? Thanks mate. They are OEM Toyota headlights from the AE101 Corolla BZ Touring model (facelift). The BZ Touring is classed more as an 8th Gen than a 7th Gen due to the years they were produced, but shares the vast majority of the same parts as the pre-facelift AE101 BZ Touring wagon. It came factory with a 4A-GE 20v Blacktop and some had a C160 6-speed manual transmission. The BZ Touring models had the black housing headlights with chrome reflectors and the non-BZ Touring models (such as the L-Touring) had chrome housing headlights with chrome reflectors.

I know in Puerto Rico Corolla's are the cream but is not the same here state side Haha, the funny thing is that I actually got the headlights sent from Malaysia as it was slightly cheaper than buying them here. I was going to buy them from a wrecker here in NZ, but they know how much they're worth, so it worked out about $50 cheaper to get it from overseas instead. Corollas are quite popular here, but then again so are Civics. There's about an even mix between them. Speaking of the Corolla's popularity, I was watching a programme on TV about Afghanistan last night and literally every second car I saw on the road was a 7th Gen Corolla. Curious, I looked up on Google how popular the Corolla is over there, and apparently 90% of all cars in Kabul are Toyota Corollas . They get them sent over from the US and Canada because they drive on the right hand side of the road there, although I did spot a couple of Japanese models last night, which are technically illegal over there. I was reading that the Corolla is so popular over there that most mechanics only stock spare parts for Corollas and no other vehicle. I think I'd be in my realm over there, apart from all the bombings and what not

^ Yeah I was amazed by how popular they are over there. Goes to show how reliable they are . Apparently the most popular colour is white because it doesn't show the dirt as much, haha. Speaking of Corollas in Afghanistan, here's a picture I came across a while ago (yes, that's a 7th Gen Corolla wagon ;D) -
