    I'm thinking of getting the Plug in. Just wondering if the parts are completely interchangeable. For example, if I get a ground kit that would've fit the regular prius, would it fit the plug in? Same with wheels or lowering springs or LED headlights etc...

    Generally yes, though some adjustments might potentially need to be made if the parts are for 2010-11 vehicles and not 2012+
    For example, check out the LED link in my mods thread

    Yeah. I have to meet a Scout at one of my Preserves this morning. Besides, I was all excited to learn about the 2013 Acura RDX my significant other just bought and figuring out how to reduce wind noise in my car. These are the things that keep me up at night. LOL

    I'm new to the Hybrid EV Community, have ordered a 2013 Prius Plug In. I've been reading the posts and chats for a couple weeks now. I would like to order and install the different components for the Prius Plus Performance Package, but it is not offered as an option for the PiP. Does anyone own a 2012 or later PiP? And has that individual installed the components of the Prius Plus Performance Package on their vehicle?
    My new 2013 PiP should arrive in the middle of January 2013.

    It should fit just fine. Just remember to get the Plus package for 2012 and later.
