    Hello, have anyone thought of putting a little LED light in the shift knob so at night it will light up? At first I thought the 2010 Pruis design the shift knob made me think it will glow (maybe because of the blue part on the knob).

    Anyone know how to mod the shift knob to put a LED light in it?

    Ohhhhhhhhhh I see what Toyota has done. The shifter (joystick) was illuminated in the Gen 2 but in the Gen 3, they decided to illuminate it from above instead of from beneath.
