Alternator OEM Toyota or GENERAL MOTORS

The large frame alternator from a 1997-2001 Camry with the 2.2L(5S) will fit the Celica with minimal modifications. I had to grind the staked washer on the alternator a bit on the pivot side, and unbolt the bottom of the adjuster bracket to let it slightly swing out. Result is a 220A alternator in my 6th Gen to power the upgraded sound system without my lights flickering.

Original starter and alternator

I have a manual 2007 Toyota yaris with +185k miles on it and the only thing that's ever needed replaced on that car (besides brakes, oil, and tires) is the alternator a few months ago, which I was able to do easily for <$150.

All I've done/had done for maintenance is a few oil changes, replaced the alternator and serpentine belt, had rear brake pads and rotors replaced, replaced the battery, new tires, and new headlight bulbs. Nothing too complicated or expensive

I will always vote for a 10SI or 12SI GM alternator swap on an L-series engine. Affordable conversion bracket. 1-wire GM alternators are simple, reliable, cheap and readily available online but not easy to find in parts stores. 3 wire GM alternators are are easy enough to wire up and are absolutely everywhere in parts stores if you’re more concerned about parts availability and potential breakdowns on long adventures.

2004 Camry, had it since my grandfather, did not break down a single time and still on oem stuffs except an alternators and some brake. The most reliable daily I ever had.

My shitbox, I replaced my alternator just for my window motor to go bad, I replaced the window motor just for the thermostat to go bad the next day, it’s inevitable.

Just did my girlfriends Highlander. PITA!! Like others stated, you'll save yourself $1000, but you're gonna be there for a while.

Not sure what brand of alternator you got but basically all of the reman auto parts stores alternators and starters are total junk. You'd be better off buying a used OEM Toyota one over an auto parts store unit.

Alternator has been replaced 2 times within the year battery is also new and the odds of 2 brand new faulty alternators is pretty slim.
