I actually found some really good deals on eBay, like a whole led lighting kit for less than 10 bucks, and all kinds of cheap alternatives!! Like the ones that are $17 at Autozone, you can get 2 of those for like $7 haha, I'll definitely be ordering some stuff here soon!!

I just need to get some fittings, some fuel hose, drill some holes, and I'll be done with a major project for the white Tercel. I also need to get a set of flexible hose pliers for the rear brake hoses on the red Tercel. Gonna get the $12 metal ones from Harbor Freight and hope they don't damage the hoses. If they do, oh well I guess.

I also replaced the oil dipstick tube o-ring, the spark plugs, plug wires, and spotted leaky CV axle seals, a tearing CV axle boot, and torn steering rack boot gaiters.
But...did you try hitting it with a hammer?

OT a bit, but reffing to the LED i/s lights...
I accidentally left my i/s lights on at my old HS football game tonight - app. almost 6 hours (tailgate and apres game schmoozing, don't you know).
TNG for the LED's! No need to use the jumper cables!
