    Sorry to hear that. I just had my 10K service done at Piercey Toyota in Milpitas. Their waiting area is huge and they offer free donuts and coffee. I believe the dealership is less than 4-5 years old. They've been great so far. I also purchased my car here. We get our RAV4 services here too. Hope this helps!

    Here's another laugher for you budget pinchers. 3M Velcro wall holders used as a Car Mount for my new iPhone 6 with Otter Box Case

    There is a swivel in the clip, so if I need to adjust the fan controls or touch the screen on the Navi, I can simply twist it around.

    that's gd unbelievable. have you contacted the BBB and/or posted your experience on yelp along with the service adviser's name? sad to see that we have to air our grievances publicly before being apologized to

    LED DP.jpg Added LED bulbs to the lower inside door panels. I used the same LED bulbs in the vanity mirror, where they are plenty bright, but they don't look nearly as bright in the door-panels as the incandescents which they replaced.

    I may have to find some equivalents with the emitter turned 90° to these, or just make a reflector out of foil.

    Posted several <sarcasm>"nice"</sarcasm> reviews of my experience with Toyota Sunnyvale, even on their Facebook page. :cool:



    Check out the 5K WHITE 4 LED HIGH POWER FLANK BULBS 194 168 158 160LM, from VLEDS. This is the set I installed into the doors that light almost to the rear hatch.

    Visited my friends, Hueng and Tony at Computerized Tinting in San Jose and had them make a visor using Llumar CTX 5 tint.

    Hey bud, looks great! Did they do the tint on the rest of your windows too? What percentage tint did you go on each window? Can you PM me what they charged you if you can? Just gathering some quotes since I'm in SJ as well. Thanks!

    Could it be some coincidence or mythical sign the sun returned today?

    SoCal weather supposed to be nice. Gotta get it done. Rear end looks funny with just the "T" in pearl and the rest blacked out.
