    Hello

    Just want to introduce my self and my new 2012 Prius 3 with solar panel in the black color. The one on the lot only had 1.2 miles when I purchased it on 2.15.12.

    So far I filled it up with some gas and I was averaging a little over 50mpg. I commute 50 miles a day so this was pefect time for me to purchase a Prius.

    Also the entune is excellent! I know someone with the Ford Sync and the Toyota one is much better.!

    I will take some pictures tomorrow.

    I have several questions:

    1. I am purchasing several items: Auto dimming mirror with HomeLink, fog lights, mud flaps. Will any Toyota shop install these items? Do I need to take to a regular shop? Anyone in Missouri know of a place?

    2. the otehr questions I will post in other area since it is a specific question regarding the Clazzio car seats

    I would install the mud flaps myself--very easy and you'll probably be charged way more than it's worth by any dealer. I would think any Toyota dealer could install the others.

    I'm down in Springfield area, a ways from you, but welcome to Priuschat.

    Thanks. Yes I was planning on installing the mud flaps myself. I meant to type fog lights instead. I have a Santa wish list here!!!
