What did you do to ur Gen III Prius today????

The 3 in 1 mirror with auto folding was one of my greatest achievement mod with my prius. It makes my prius a one of a kind and I guess a few priuses here in IL has it.


iPhone ?

 

Everytime I see a prius here with carbor fiber hood such as @bino makes me drool.

Damn! I thought I'm going to slow down and its the other way around.

Carbon Fiber? Did u say Carbon Fiber!?

 

Yes! Carbon Fiber my friend. Hahahahaha

Hmmmm. Sooo sick! Great rims! BBS! Hmmm. That gold stands out so well. Love it!

@aportades - love your suspension setup! What Coilovers are you running? Also, what are the specs on your STR wheels and what size tires? Looks great!

@Gaspeed - love your suspension setup also. Which Coilovers are you running? Thanks!

 

Thanks man. I wish they were BBS but just replica STR. That's my whole point just trying to make it stand out but not to overwhelming with unnecessary mods, IMO. That's just me.

 

Thanks for the compliment Ramtart. I actually do not have coilovers but just Eibach lowering springs (1 coil cut all around). Which is why they sit nicely like that. For the rims 18x9 with 215x35x18 tires. Also with 5MM spacer on the rear to have it stick out a little to match the front

 

Thanks! I'm running Tein Coilovers.

 

Change my filters at 30k miles.

 

Didn't go with K&N Filter and K&N Carbin filter?

 

18x8.5. Not sure the weight because I'm still waiting for wheels to arrive from Japan. They might actually weigh less than Ct200h wheels. Least that's what someone told me.

 

I use the ATP at amazon.

My Husky mats came in today - nothing exotic, just the same as everyone else's !





Arriving this weekend (hopefully) - all my Lamin-x stuff.

 

Sprayed wax my wife's CT200h and found this on the lower door. Wanting to have one of these on my prius to protect my doorsill.

 

hi. any pic of this blue wire? and then just ground it right? thanks.

 

Got this yesterday, took about an hour from start to finished. It looks and sound good.

 

Did it increase any Hp? How does it sound?

 

I doubt it will increase Hp...it's cat back exhaust, to me it looks axle back exhaust instead, but it sound a little louder than the stock but has different low note tone. when ICE is on it sound really nice low rumble tone from outside, in car cabin hardly noticeable.

It's cost me $340 shipped from THmotorsports.com, here is the link.

Click here for post with pic of where you will find the infamous blue wire that connects to the black wires for the puddle lights. That is post #784 in the 50+ page LED mirrors thread.

No, you don't ground the other wire (white wires on my MIT Accessories LEDs) ... you need to tap an always-on 12v power source. Two handy locations for that:
1. If you have footwell lights, you can tap the + wire there
2. Behind the mirror/fogs switch panel on the dash, you can get at a red wire on the ECU that has constant power

Aside from that A-pillar blue wire, be sure to test with a continuity tester or volt meter before you make your taps.
Side note: if you ever need a switched power (powered when ignition is on) there is a blue wire at bottom right on the ECU plug that is easy to tap. That is where I grabbed power for my dashcam.
