    Just installed my black Visual Garage solar-compatible sharkfin. Loved driving home with the windshield banner. Completely blocks out the sun. :cool:

    I've been watching this. I suspect they may be flagging VINs in batches to avoid overwhelming the dealership service departments.

    OMG... what is happening to me ?? So, I just ordered my Toyota Premium Horns from HybridPit. Great customer service from Chris!! (and he's including a @priuschat decal because my shop order still hasn't shipped) He's putting them in the mail today, so I may have them as soon as Tue or Wed. Now the big question is do I attempt to install them myself or pay ToyotaEC to put them on for me (and take ridicule from the forum :))?? Although, in my defense, attempting to put them on, I risk chipping a nail... and let's be honest... we can NOT have ANY of that !!

    Yup for the inverter power module recall and the ABS control ecu recall.

    I also made the mistake of heading straight to a smog check center right after leaving the dealer. Ended up failing it due to internal emission system self checks being incomplete.

    Yep, the ECU needs to relearn your driving habits and recalibrate the O2 sensors? Takes a while.

    You can bring it by my place tomorrow. Between the four of us, I'm sure we can get the job done without breaking any nails, or damning anyone to be honor killed.

    Opened up my door panels and finally gathered up enough courage to install these simple warning lights.

    Everything was easy with everyone's input, especially @sfv41901

    The hardest part was routing the wires so the windows did not slice the wires in half when you rolled it down.

    Check it



    So thanks y'all! That was fun!

    Hey!! I don't know if the horns will be here tomorrow. According to Fedex, they're still in Anaheim. maybe I should have just gotten in the Prius and went and picked them up !! what time is the mod party ??
