    Can't go wrong with meguires rich leather wipes. I used them for years with my leather seats and now my softex with no issues. I love them.

    Glossy when newly applied. It goes back to its natural appearance after a couple of days.

    I like Lexus's own leather cleaner/conditioner, which can be purchased at Lexus.

    Pictures? How do they look? I'm considering getting them but concerned they will look bad.

    HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE

    My wife got me some Christmas gifts for the Prii. She was actually pretty sneaky about it. She confessed to going through my browser history.

    Long story short......I found a new & up coming company PriusZilla that caters to soly the Prius.....best of all it's local in Socal. I mentioned to the owner that I have a whole forum full of people looking for great deals on parts. He agreed to include a free set of TRD valve steam caps to the 1st order when u mention my name (Masta S)

    Masta C, you get a name of who the owner is at PriusZilla? Seems to run in our circle?

    Tried my hand at the Pumpkin install this morning. Seemed things were going really well but of course...

    I'm getting a check hybrid system light now that it's all back together. I assumed it would quick when I plugged the mode and emergency light cables back in but no dice.

    also wasn't able to wire the new auxiliary connection cause I couldn't figure out where to run it to.. ideas?
    is there a way to just get the old port to work?


    update: hybrid lights gone.
    sold still love ideas for getting the stock auxiliary port to work or where to run the wires for the new one

    My Ultimate Pedals arrived and today I assembled & mounted them.

    Assemble?? I know.. I had to put the little rubber grip pieces in one by one. I really wish they came pre-assembled for the price ($200), it wasn't fun and my fingers still feel a little sore from squeezing them through and making sure they were fastened.

    Aside from that, mounting is a breeze & I'm really happy with the finished product. I had the Prius logo etched into the dead pedal. I feel like it could use some color in the logo but, I'll live with it for a while.

    Happy New Year everyone!! (y)

    Thx. I'll let her know

    Everything is gonna get powder coated so install pic will be coming.

    I'm really happy with the Tom's STB. Quality looks really good. No offence to Cusco (i have all their other braces & RSB) but I never understood why their STB is a 3 piece design.....it allows for body flex. With the Tom's, all that flex will be gone.

    I figure that if I'm (all of us) gonna spend the money in braces, they should do what they are ment for.
