Installed a REMIN Dash Kit in our v today

What Burl did you install? I have Honey Burl on order for my V so I wondered if would be the same as yours. I noticed you didn't cover the power panel and area below it, did you have a problem in that area? Nice job by the way!!

 

I ordered the 57 parts kit so that must be the difference. Wife skepticism is a given I am afraid. I had to order the overhead console kit first to be sure it would be a good choice for her. Which is OK of course. David

 

Compliments to the wife on the install. Was the install pretty clean around the edges for a nice fit? I would be interested in hearing about its performance over time. Please keep us posted.

 

My experience with the kit on my 2009 Venza has been zero problems looks as good as when I installed three years ago.

 

Glad the pics helped out. I get a lot of compliments on the look.

 

Thanks for sharing, Flyman, that is awesome to know.

 

I ordered the Real Carbon Fiber kit on April 11 with estimated ship date of April 18. Now I have been told it wont ship til May 8. I hate waiting......

 

I'm interested in getting this one too. I have a black car and was thinking of getting the 58 piece set along with the exterior stuff. Please post pictures, I can't seem to find any of the carbon fiber ones.

Did you order the real stuff (Plus 30.000%) or just the pattern?

Thanks for your help!

 

Originally I was looking at the synthetic version but in the end I went with the real carbon fiber (extra cost) based on the example image. I only ordered the basic kit and I dont think I will use all the pieces. I dont want it to look overdone, just accented. Probably start with just covering the silver areas and go from there. Exterior pieces on a black car might look good. Get the real ones though, not the synthetic. My car is silver so I dont think the exterior pieces would look good. I'll post pics when I eventually get them.

 

Thank you very much, I look forward to seeing them!

 

hello, i have read all your comments and am looking into a dash kit for my prius c but i do have a question or two. i have ordered and received my kit samples from REMIN and was wondering do the kits normally feel rubbery? my samples came a little sticky with some residue and i noticed it was hard to clean, has this been anyone else's experience?

 

I installed a REMIN basic kit with optional overhead console kit last week. I waited a week because I didn't use adhesion promoter. I want to make sure the pieces hold up before I write my comment. Well, they do hold up very well. So, you really don't need the adhesion promoter for Prius v. (I did order an adhesion promoter pen as recommended. But, I was more concerned about the promoter damaging the surrounding surface than its benefit. So, I decided to do it without the promoter and see what happened.)

I ordered the kit in Synthetic Platinum Burl (SPW) to go with my light gray interior. It took me about 3 hours by myself. They are pretty easy to install. I am very happy with the result. Here are some pictures:
