1990 Toyota Camry Restoration
Buenos días from Mazatlan Mexico.
I am a 1990 Toyota Camry owner living in Mexico. I am in the process of trying to restore my Camry.
At this point I am looking for the following parts.
Drivers side rear corner tail light.
Passengers side tail light.
New top door weather stripping for all four doors.
Windshield and rear window rubber trim that goes around the chrome window trim.
Exterior drivers side door handle.
I have been to several body shops and they have all told me I will need to find these parts in the USA.
I will study the forum to post this information on the appropriate forum with photos.
Thank you for your thoughts, help and information.

Determine the parts you need.
Search an online Toyota dealer parts website to find the parts. Sites can have blow up parts schematics to be able to find the exact part. Most likely the part will discontinued but you may be able to get a Toyota part number. Search the net for that part number to and find what comes up.
Can also search a part based on year/make/model/part description. Will be surprised at what part sources you find.
Try Ebay.
An issue may be your non USA thus check with the seller about out of country sales.

yes, I have spent hours and hours doing most of what you said. The Toyota dealer here in Mazatlan was kind enough to print out all the original parts schematics and OEM part numbers for me. Nothing on Amazon, Ebay is sketchy. But I did find a wrecking yard on Ebay in Connecticut that has some of the parts. Waiting to hear back. Funny, Austrailia has a lot of Toyota wrecking yards. This is a marathon, not a sprint. Thank you for your suggestions.
Are you looking for OEM parts to maintain originality?
Have you expanded your search? Here researched/joined other Toyota forums? There is always someone restoring a car at these sites and they may have sourced parts. Your just looking for the Camry parts within these sources. Auto salvage yards can specialize in make of car.
I have called or email yards. If they don't have the part they have suggested a yard that does.
