    Purchased a used 2010 Prius III and finally picked it up last week after a 3-week delay with a title issue. Just getting used to the car after trading in an old leaky gas guzzling Audi A4 manual transmission wagon. Been wanting to get a Prius for a long time. It is awesome!

    The forums/threads are great. So many things on our list to do to our "Blueberry".

    We got Husky Liners, a bumper protector, and cargo mat. We're missing the right front hub cap so we have to decide if we want to replace it or take off the other 3 hub caps and put in center caps.

    Would love to have LED interior lights...and have bookmarked the link to putting in seat heaters and downloaded the 27-page PDF(!) to modifying the SKS system to include the passenger door lock but am too chicken to do either yet.

    Thanks everyone for all the great posts/help/info!

    You can program the SKS to open all doors from the drivers side door, not as good as 3 door sks, but better than the normal config.....and a lot cheaper!

    Like he said, have the local dealer program it so touching the drivers door handle unlocks all the doors.

    And while he's doing that, have him change the backup beeper to a single beep.

    Much nicer! Spouse no longer has to wait for me to unlock the doors. :)

    Welcome aboard.
