    Did you know that even though they are both in Asia, they source their parts from completely different places? I wish someone had told me before I bought my windows visors in Thailand thinking they will be the same as the JDM ones. The biggest difference between the two visors is the Thai ones are CLIPLESS! Difference number 2 is the "PRIUS" engraving on the Thai ones versus the "Toyota" on the the Japanese ones. To make a long story short, I will be coming back with two extra sets for whomever wants to buy them. I will post in the "For Sale" section when I get back to Cali in November.

    Thailand Toyota Part Number, I don't know the JDM part number so I couldn't compare the two.

    From the directions, you just peel the tape, align, and apply pressure

    I'm hoping since its OEM Toyota, they will hold up as good as the JDM version. I'll just have to install them and see. Thanks Bisco!

    I think the thai ones are slightly bigger in profile for the more rain they get there...
    Very similar to how the TRD USA springs here are different than the TRD japan market prius springs.
