You can take it out and try it out to see it still works or not. If it does works. You can put it in your camry.

Camry either uses 9004 type bulbs or 9006 bulbs. The TL is D2R, so the socket is different. You will need to do some modification in order to have the bulbs fit.

I doubt your '94 camry's headlight housing is set up for HID bulbs, you'll just be blinding people.

So i think that as soon as i get out to the yard im just gonna have to get the bulbs and retrofit it into my camry housing.. i think its worth a shot

also i will post pictures of the car as soon as i go and see the car. the car was wrecked late friday night so i havent gotten pictures yet.
