    yea... i would guess the seller u r talking about sells genuine valenti`s cause of the 1000 positive reviews. But if u wanna be a 100% sure, buy from the seller i bought from. He also answered me within a day when i asked if they were genuine and road legal and all that. Im very happy with that seller. Ge got a 5/5 from me.

    i will lol, doing it right now, and yea, the only reason i bought the smoked ones was cause the car is black. If it was like white or any other color i wouldve definetly gone for one of the red versions.

    Yup, totally agree. Mine is white so I will either be getting the G tails or the red Valenti's. They are super clean.

    I wouldve gone for the valwntis if i where u, or the “crystal eye”, they r pretty cool to, what I like about them is that the indicators on the back lights up one LED at a time. Like... it makes the pattern like most new VW’s have ( https://m.ebay.com/itm/HIGH-POWER-CREE-REVERSE-10-11-Toyota-Prius-3RD-Gen-FIBER-OPTIC-LED-Tail-Lights-/172952975176?_trkparms=aid%253D555018%2526algo%253DPL.SIM%2526ao%253D2%2526asc%253D20150519202348%2526meid%253D871d99b097ca4c6894f7f0327120eba4%2526pid%253D100408%2526rk%253D1%2526rkt%253D6%2526sd%253D222675837839&_trksid=p2056116.c100408.m2460 )But yea, one of the red valentis would look great. I’m Considering getting the red with the white stripes to my moms Prius.

    My Ruien OCC came in today — gathering parts for a 100k mile maintenance marathon. Currently just under 98k so I have another month or so to get ready. Full EGR system & intake manifold/throttle body cleaning, OCC install, PCV valve replacement, spark plugs, engine oil, trans fluid, engine/inverter coolant, and HV battery fan cleaning.

    That should be a fun couple days... then I’ll have to tackle the StopTech street slotted rotors, Hawk HPS pads, Motul brake fluid, and lubing the caliper slide pins another weekend. Did I miss anything?

    Side note: which OE spark plugs should I order... SC20HR11, newer SC16HR11, or IXEH20TT? Car is almost daily-driven and sees a lot of hard highway miles in PWR mode. Any input would be appreciated. :)

    Nope, cars can have rear foglights, but it isnt any rules that it have to have it. Since we r a EØS country we dont go by every rule in the EU (even tho it can be discussed we have been a member in the EU since 1994 without the population wanting to, since we r apart of EØS it means we r apart of the economic part of EU. But since we have so many other rules identical to EU regulations such as "all car lights have to be E-certified" that got nothing with economic, the majority of people in Norway think we have been a full member against our will. My personal opinion is that we shouldve gone buy SAE carlight certifications and stuff, since SAE is much stricter then E-certification anyways. ). but yea... hese lights r E-certified so they r legal in every EU country aswell. They r also certified by toyota to be the same quality or exceed their quality.

    Looks out of place to me. If I were you my next mod would be lower the car (if not lowered already). The height really changes the whole look of a car.
