Yep, going to respond right now.

My latest addition - A rare OEM (optional extra) under-seat tray. It has a bracket which gets mounted underneath the passenger's seat (screw holes were already there) and allows you to store various items, such as tools, a first aid kit, map books, hand wipes, cleaning cloths etc. It could also come in useful if you're wanting to hide your GPS, radar detector, stereo face-plate etc when leaving the vehicle unoccupied. First one I've ever come across and I got it for a steal :). Was hard to take photos of it, but here it is:

Haha, yeah it's the first one I've seen in real-life. Seen a photo on the internet before. Was extremely simple to install as the mounting holes were already there (thanks Toyota! ). Yeah hopefully my car will be the OEM king someday, hehe.

I fitted some personalised plates today. Would love to know what people's interpretation of the word "whipped" means, so feel free to post your comments below :)

^ Haha, whipped potato? I think we call it mashed potato here. Yeah, I not a fan of being whipped either. Not kinky enough for that sort of stuff, LOL. But you were right, it's meant to be like whipped cream, since the car is white

I attended a Toyota meet last night and a friend of mine snapped some shots of my car:

Also, finally got my door cards reupholstered with the Corolla GT fabric (fabric transferred from one set of door cards to the other). I've had the GT seats installed for about 18-months, but never got around to getting the door card fabric transferred across because every upholsterer I went to wanted to charge between $500-700 (couldn't just swap the GT door cards straight over because the plastic was grey, whereas the interior plastic in my SE Limited is plum).

A lot of places didn't even want to attempt the job, mainly because the door card was all one piece, so they'd have to tuck it in perfectly whilst also lining up the holes for the electric window switch etc. Ended up finding an Indian guy who has been in the business for 50-years that was willing to do it for $180. Dropped it off yesterday before lunch and it was ready at 11am this morning

Here's the result:

This arrived from Japan this morning - An OEM cabin filter. It was a very rare optional extra, and I didn't even know it existed until about 6-months ago. I managed to find the rare cabin filter door to hold it in, so have been waiting for this to arrive. I installed it about half an hour ago, so here's some pics of the filter, door and finished product:

That's new! 101 got cabin filter? I thought they said old cars do not have. Few weeks back I went to parts shop to ask if my 111 uses cabin filter and they said no! I wasn't surprised because older cars do not use them. But here you got one for your 101.

Yep, however it was only available as an optional extra. All AE100/AE101 Corolla's, Sprinter's, Levin's, Trueno's, Marino's and Ceres' have the space for a cabin filter, but very few actually had the door fitted in place from factory. On models without the door the hole where the filter goes was just filled in with plastic, so all you have to do is cut through the plastic to expose the hole underneath. Then you insert the filter, put the door in place and secure it with the four push-type clips (there are already eyelets underneath for these to go into).

Most AE110 and AE111 Levins also had the provision for a cabin filter too, but only some AE111 Corollas did. Take a look under your dashboard on the passenger's side and see if you have any eyelets under there. If you do, I'll sell you a rare filter door and you can just order the filter from Japan. The reason why the dealers/part shops say that they don't exist is because they're so rare and virtually nobody knows about them.

Here's what it should look like if you don't have the cabin filter installed from factory:

We've had a lot of rain here lately (and it's meant to be summer, lol), but the sun finally arrived today so I decided to make the most of it and snap a few pics of the Corolla:
