    Those new ADT alarm isn't that good. The older model run hardware vs battery
    Is that the plug you bought?

    Time to hop on the sharkfin bandwagon next!

    Merged.

    This is actually the one I have on my car. It fits and looks nicely. I had the seller send me a flat-top with bevel edge instead of a dome top and he was really cool about it. Washed my car multiple times with a pressure washer and no leaks.

    However, If I waited a few days, I would've seen @saulbassfan post his JDM plug and I would've got that instead since it's flush with the glass.

    I work in Poway and lose reception to 91X, but Z90, 93.3, Energy, KYXY, etc. all work fine. Never noticed any reception loss in Eastlake, North Park, Carlsbad, La Jolla... even at Barona and Viejas I never noticed anything. I mostly run Spotify through my phone though, so the sharkfin was for style points.

    He has one that's flush? You happen to have a link to what that looks like? Sounds epic since I've had the homedepot one on my car since 2010 when I got it haha. Might be time for a change!

    If you get enough interest from others and are going to place an order I would like to reserve one. No rush just putting it out there

    I like the color scheme that Andino has developed.. I like more the lighted seat, lighted antenna, side mirror and door lighted handles in 展示車両紹介 | 東京オートサロン2015 | トヨタモデリスタ , although is Prius v, hopefully can be adapted to all Prius product line up.

    In regards "starcaller" remark "beyond me why some people literally hate it", I can say my experience in Houston Texas (currently live in Houston Texas, born and raised in Southern California). People Houston Texas love their pick up trucks, regardless pickup truck size and SUV's ("Chevrolet Suburban: The Texas Cadillac"), if it is not pickup truck or big SUV's then has to be big size car with high cubic inch engine. Gas prices is about 35% lower compared to California, most of the industry are Oil &Gas, roads have lots of pot holes, roads have debris, because land is flat there is/are flooding when heavy rain and because flooding, many shops have steep angle entrances and the great independence Texas pride. Fitting Prius on a city that has infrastructure issue(s), been brought with big trucks, SUVs and cars, is something that requires time to understand and adapt. I don't believe is hate, more like phase, is a life style that people are used to, and slowly being adjusted by economic pressure. When fuel prices are high or goes higher, job entrenchment effect, people understand (ECOnomic and ECOlogy) better and adapt in a reasonable manner.
    Regardless, Prius product is/are not for everyone, unless people is/are pressured financially or understand conservation....
