A List of Prius Mods for the Website

uh hello what about leather seats lol, not that i got them, but i got quoted 1069, like 10 months ago, i still havent gotten them, im poor lol

 

I put a pair of sheepskin faced seat covers on the front seats. Cost $239AU.
Improved comfort and protects the seats from wear and soiling.
A set of cheap floor mats while I consider genuine floor mats. Cost $14.49AU

I have shark fin, mud flaps & front windscreen sun shade/reflector from Prius Chat.

I want a mesh carrier for the luggage area to stop stuff rolling around.
Might do the racing hubcap conversion and scan gauge and/or dice.

 

My vote goes to lockpick as the all time doller to value winner.

 

Looks good, but I think I am seeing two sag like ridges a few inches in from the edges of the sunroof starting behind it and going for a foot or two? This is from looking at the picture you posted, blown up/

Install the katzkins yourself for around 600. I plan to get them in two tone.

 

Go look at your roof. They all have those lines.

<---- According to his ID information

He doesn't own a Prius, so looking at his roof won't help, but yes all Prii have those ridges.

 

Less than $50:

Not really a mod, but a piece of safety equipment.

< $35 at WalMart, may also find it even cheaper under the Vector brand sold at PepBoys.

A jump starter is useful in two ways:

1. You don't have to depend on anyone else if your 12V battery becomes discharged. You avoid having a well meaning samaritan hook up the jumper cables incorrectly and possibly destroying the electronics in your Prius.

2. You can help out other motorists without involving your Prius in a jump start situation.

Make sure not to get the type of jump starter that plugs into the aux power jack, because the jacks are ignition switched on the Prius (it won't work when ignition is off)..

Got one on order, was worried, but if that's normal then I am seriously considering adding it! I am a little concerned about the structure being cut to get the new roof in though.

I have found the exact same trailer hitch made by Curt Manufacturing available on the U-Haul web site as part number 24743 Sportframe 1 1/4 inch Reciever for $119.95 with free shipping. Pick up the 1 1/4" square plastic cover, part number 13108 while you are at it for $1.15 each.

 

Mods? Price? I found this while looking for a cheep engine air filter.
In order of HIGH price, here's WAY more than most would ever do. Not my cup of tea, but still a lot to look at.

And I wish I had that kind of spare time

The sunroof modification will not compromise the integrity of the structure. The perpendicular braces are very thin, just there to keep the roof from vibrating. The sunroof frame will more than sufficiently replace the function of the one or two members cut.

I don’t know how to estimate the cost of the modification I performed. I guess I should get two sunroofs installed. See below.

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but it looks as if there may be a reflection of another Prius in your limo Prius. Is there?

Thanks

The middle doors do open. The three youngest children own the middle row so it is nice to have access. The middle doors have the child safety locks and electric locks tied into the system. The window controls in the rear four doors all control the rear windows. The middle doors compensate for the angles of the front and rear doors so the center windows do not roll down.

 

More than $100.00:

Rain sensing wiper mod - $149 raintracker.com

This is one of the few things I missed about my Caddy!
