Brandon is the mentor of the Corolla. Truly unmatched content creator for the 09-12 Rolla hands down. I have done countless modifications ranging from touch screen/back-up camera to Brola exhaust and DC Sport headers because of your informative videos. I am beyond grateful Brandon please never stop. Every-time I receive a compliment on my build I can’t help but credit you. All credits to you tho, you’re the guiding light for all Corolla owners!
Thank you! I really appreciate it! I am glad the videos have helped out with all your mods on your corolla! Love to see other people modifying their own corollas!
Thank you! I appreciate it! As for the sound deadening, I did not want to give my opinion until I put the rest of it! But just from the last week of driving, noise levels are still about the same, atleast for my exhaust. But I think the tone has changed and made things sound not as tin can sounding!
I would love to get one, if I could find one in decent condition! I would want to get the one with the flip up headlights. I believe that is the Trueno.
It’s very hard to tell, many factors would determine if it would actually fit. The spline size would need to be the same, also would need to verify electrical connections and clock spring!
This looks dope. Sadly, the transmission on my corolla is starting to go out, and I'm debating on whether it's worth it to get it replaced or just replace the car wholesale. Pissed b/c I just replaced the speakers (And I like the car.)
Thank you! Dang that sucks! Is it an automatic or a manual? It really depends on how much you like the car? A used transmission is probably going to be around 600-800 for a decent milage. And if you do it yourself, will only cost time. Or if you have some else do it maybe 2k at the most! Not easy to find a decent car for 2k these days!
@@BrandonStellmach Automatic. Toyota dealership I had do a trans fluid flush and diagnostics quoted me 2700 for labor only/before price of a reman trans. I see people selling 2014 Corollas with only 30k mileage (192k) asking nearly 8k. I want to ask them what drugs they are on.
At that price, I understand wanting to grab another car! It would almost be a nice car to hang on to, and wait for a nice opportunity to buy a reman transmission and have a local shop perform the work for about half the cost of the dealer!
@@BrandonStellmach After looking at a lot of slightly-newer-but-still-used cars being 10k for no real reason, I think I'm just going to find a local transmission shop and have them do the work for less than Toyota would. My brother said he'd help me with the struts and brakes, but I think I'm going to drive the trans until it's Actually Bad before I go for the replacement.
@@ProjectBlackweatherthat would be the best way to go! I know it’s tempting to buy a new car, but it’s always better to fix the old one and save money! But if the trans is still working, I would just be easy on it! And ride it out until the car won’t move anymore!
I wish I could say yes! But I have not yet! I have pretty much narrowed it down to a bad input shaft on the transmission or bad wheel bearings. But leaning more towards the transmission going bad, because it only makes noise when I am in gear! I have pretty much changed everything in the drive train with brand new parts. And none of them fixed the issue.

LOL 1:25 very pro car TH-camr move, dropping the expensive equipment before it is out of the box. 🤣 Video was great and interior looks amazing!
😂 breaking it before I even look at it!
But I appreciate it! Thank you!
This video reminded me to buy some seat covers for my 2015 Scion tc, I got the front row black and red
Seat covers are a great way to change the interior! Especially if it’s an accent color! The Clazzio seat covers are a great choice! Just pretty pricy!
loook at you with the xrs sliding arm rest!!!
Yes! One of the best additions to the interior!
Those red seatbelts are popping 🥵🥵🔥🔥👌
I agree! They are a great accent color!
You inspire a lot of people, great video 🙌🏻🔥
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
Inspiration video for me to work on my Corolla 🙏
Heck yeah! Love to give some inspiration on modifying your rolla!
the best corolla ever
Thank you! I appreciate it!
How you know to much ???
Big congratulations 🎊
Thank you! I appreciate it!
I loved this video, the interior looks absolutely gorgeous!! I'm curious, did the sound deadening do its job well when you drove the car?
Thank you! I appreciate it!

Beautiful cars. Both of them ❤
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Will you ever consider getting an ae86 corolla?
Also just curious which do you prefer levin or trueno?
I would love to get one, if I could find one in decent condition!
I would want to get the one with the flip up headlights. I believe that is the Trueno.
Just wanted to know if it would be possible to put a starlet steering wheel on my 2013 corolla
no

is the arm rest flimsy? or it has some sort of clip underneath locking it in place?
No it is not! And it has 2 locking positions, one that is fully extended, and one at the normal length!
Now you need to put a wrap on the car. This color needs to go.
A matte will look good on it
Definitely agree! The silver was not my first choice or color! Maybe a wrap will be coming soon!
What model Lexus did you get the leather seats from? I am thinking of doing the same
The leather seat covers are from clazzio! If you are lucky they did make the 2009-2010 with a leather option, but those are very hard to find.
Please i can't access that seat covers link is there any way to get it on Amazon?
Sadly, they do not sell them on Amazon. Here is the link to the seat covers. Hope this helps!

Put a TRD knob to complete it hehe
I will have to look for one!
Did you ever figure out that whining noise when driving?
I wish I could say yes! But I have not yet! I have pretty much narrowed it down to a bad input shaft on the transmission or bad wheel bearings. But leaning more towards the transmission going bad, because it only makes noise when I am in gear!
I have pretty much changed everything in the drive train with brand new parts. And none of them fixed the issue.
those seat covers are what i need but they pricey 😭
They are a great option, for good fitting seat covers! But I agree they are pricey! That’s why I went with the basic option!
What’s the link for the seat covers?
@@JMMinistriesI have put all the links in the description!
@@BrandonStellmach thank you! 🙏🏾
