    Any body got any recommendations for changing out the high beams on the Prius 5 to something whiter? I can't seem to get a really straight answer on this that works. There's a thread but the pics and links seem to be dead. Also has anyone done anything about the amber front side parking bulb? Or successfully swapped out the signal lights up front for LEDs (besides the one guy from Japan who was on youtube)? Thanks. Sorry for the multiple questions.:oops:

    yeah eh ? haha, I like how there's barely any gap now, the driving feels soo much different, this was a very good performance mod :p

    can't wait until the Prius Plus wheels come, it'll look so much nicer :p

    I kept forgetting to post pics of the jdm headlight dimmer switch, anyways heres on the pics from the 2012 Toyota Wish, it looks like the folding mirrors match the 2010 Prius mirrors.

    Washed the car with the strongest and most caustic feeling car wash soap tonight, then applied a coat of Collinite 845. Also degreased and dressed the tires.

    Does anyone know what color touch-up paint will best match the finish of the stock 15" wheels?
