The ones from the Camry is weather stripping, it is not double sided tape. They are held on by clips. Autozones/Pepboys should have universal ones.

The 3M Double Sided Adhesive I bought at my auto parts store works great. It does a great job of holding my eyebrows on my projectors and the Mt. Fuji emblem in my Gialla grille. It works so well, I hope I never have to remove either.... I don't buy anything from Wallyworld!!

call dealer and ask?

my bet is that its 3M tape also

I worked at Oriellys and I know what they are talking about

Its pricey, I wanna say it was like $53 for 30 ft or so and that was 3 years ago

I just ordered new headlights, and I'm dreading removing my eyelids from the old ones. I think I did TOO good of a job. *laughs*

if you're talking about the black strip on the lower valence, it's a piece of rubber that runs as an insert along the top of that piece and not adhesive tape.
