    I think you can get a new screen from German Audio Tech for $299. Then just replace the whole sunburst screen and be done with it.

    Hello Matt, I just now read your post about replacing your ABS actuator possibly using the thinkdiag tool on your Prius V.
    I too have a Prius V and am contemplating replacing it myself.
    Can you share your experience on this? And on the thinkdiag?
    Thanks,
    Frank in Houston

    Obviously, for some reason that I can not fathom, Toyota has chosen to not export very many of the 5th generation Prius to the United States. I have driven my '23 Prius for 16 months in several states from Texas to Nevada & Colorado. i have seen a total of 2 of the latest generation Prius.
    Does anyone know why Toyota has chosen this withholding of such a wonderful car from the US market?

    Hey I saw a post that you commented on the difference between the 2 battery sizes of the Gen 2 Prius. The bigger battery, the S46B24R, was for the smart option and the other smaller battery, the S34B20R, was for the regular Prius.

    I by accident bought the bigger battery, the S46B24R, and installed it in the regular Prius.

      It doesn't fit perfectly and may be a little bit loose but I was still able to connect it and it seems to be working because I've driven the car around.

      Is this a problem what I did and will it cause any issues to the car?

      I recommend that you purchase the 12V battery bracket intended for the Smart-equipped Prius so that the battery doesn't wobble around. If you can secure the battery mechanically, you will be good to go.

    Hey! I know it's been asked before but there are a million opinions. My 12v battery just died in my 2008 Prius. Do you have any recommendations for a battery or at a minimum can direct me to a specific battery that would work?
    Does Walmarts brand Everstart work and are they reliable?

    Thank you so much!

      The battery was too big.

      I used a $30.00 lawn mower battery in my '05 Prius for at least 3 years. I would have done the same in this 2013 Prius but a friend gave me his used HONDA CRV battery, and when that failed my son shamed me into buying a similar replacement = size 51R or R 51.

    Hi Hammersmith! You may want to clarify in your (very helpful) latest post on adding a spare, that those parts are strictly for Gen 4 Prius, not for Gen 5. Since this forum is Gen 5 I wouldn't want folks to get confused in the future. Just a suggestion, and keep up the good work!

    Are you still collecting Technical Service Bulletins? I saw a posting somewhere about an attempt to collect all of them. I have a current one relating to the corrosion around the rear hatch switch which I could scan and send in.
