    Default Starlet KP61 Headlamps replacement & Mountings

    Anyone knows what upgrade i can get/use for a KP61 Starlet.Currently using sealed beams..are there halogen upgrades ?

    Thanks Stewart on the cibie and hella site...

    I'm also having problems getting replacement engine mounts & gearbox ones too....
    any ideas if some other model mountings will work ?

    from Purple Beasty

    Starlet headlights can be replaced with semi sealed lights from later model Hilux and Hiace.
    Also, engine mounts should be the same as KE70 (maybe KE30). Gearbox mount MAY interchange with KE20/30, well at least a KE20 4 speed bolted straight into my 84 KP61 but not sure if the 4 speed mount bolts directly to the 5 speed box. KE70 mount is different

    Cheers

    Thanks for posting that Stu.
    (changed name to match other forums since I had to re-register anyway)

    Dispatcher, if you have any other queries just ask, or even check out www.club-k.co.nz for a wealth of Starlet info.
