FOUND: driver's side headlamp for 1987-88 wagons
Recently I had a slow-speed fender-bender that took out the driver's-side headlamp on my '87. I just need the headlamp with the metal bracket that is specific for 1987-88 Tercel wagons (I believe that headlamps from both 2WD and 4WD wagons will work). I already have the plastic trim that contains the parking light, in OK condition... but if somebody offered to sell an entire composite headlamp assembly, I'd certainly take them up on that. Name your price, with shipping to zip 95558.

'87 & '88 2wd and 4wd ARE the same- grilles are different 'tho.
if it aint there, there's a good chance it won't break!

85 SR5 Blue
88 SR5 White (the 'good' one)-not anymore-totaled

Good to know, rer233. Thankfully, my grille is still usable... will need to use zip-ties to hold it in place, though. Lol.

Dang, Gary. I wish I could help you out but my spare parts are all 83-86. Luke Anthony from the facebook group might have something for you, he has a pretty impressive trove of parts. I can't remember his name on here so I'll see if I can find it but otherwise you might try dropping him a line on FB.
Just found him on here, his forum name is MrWrench.

MrWrench is Luke Anthony and frequents here as well as the unrelated FB page. He is a great guy and will help if he can. Timothy Thomas is on the FB page and parts Tercels out, you might try him. He is often slower to respond, but might have something.

Thanks to timely info provided here on this thread, I'm happy to report that I was able to connect with Luke, and he was graciously willing to part with his only driver's-side headlamp w/ metal mounting bracket (minus the surround) remaining in his parts collection.
I love this place!

Luke is a super fellow, I can’t wait to see him in September for the 6th annual Tercel Meet & Greet this year!
