What did you do to your Prime today?

From your post, I have a suspicion we are in the presence of real astro-imaging genius. I think you were being modest. I know, wrong time, wrong forum.

 

Tires: picked up up a set of new oem prime rims and new never mounted michelin xice tires for $700 for all, pretty nice deal-added some autel mx-sensors which I was able to clone to my summer wheels with an older autel ts401 tool after doing software update to tool.Original sensors would only respond to 2019 reg prius not prime setting on tool so a minor bug there. Also tested oem tire inflator with fluid removed from bottle and it worked fine-I would just plug tire if possible-also plan to carry one winter tire as spare.

Hi Ray, Thanks for the quick response. so every thing is totally clear to me. raise the right side, I’m working on the floor, raising at a pinch weld using a electric jack from the cars 12V source. So, I loosen the three screws
At the small somewhat triangular panel and I should see a black filter with white printing on it? Right?
The reason I’m asking is: I just did this today and could not see anything that looked like a oil filter. in reference to the car, is it forward,rearward,left or right of the opening?
On the over torqued filter Iv had mechanics do that to me also. The easiest way is to take a large scewwdriver
And just punch a hole thru the filter and hope you have sufficient turning radius. Can also be messy too.
Glad to see PC has spellchecker again. Thanks.

 

I replaced the steering wheel trim (part from China) and the gear shift trim (stock toyota replacement) with piano black. Also installed vortex generators on the rear part of the roof.

 

Im looking into doing a number of modifications and upgrades, little by little.
My first small modifications were a car charger and dashcam. Some of the pics below are to show how well the wires are hidden from view.

 

Looks cool. Where did you get it? Any link? They look best on white body color, IMO.

Well done. Look very clean.

 

MM's, I commend you on going the extra mile and doing the Caliper pin lube!

What did you find when you opened the boots and pushed out the pins?
And at what mileage was this car?

You Banditos are an inspiration!!
I need to get after this Preventative Maintenance.
Fortunately for me and my 2 BEV's only Tire Rotation and Brake Insp and Caliper Pins apply!

 

How much did you drain, in how long? And considering it’s plug-in, what’s your rough EV %?

 

This part still bugs me about the Prime. Really Lo-Tech.
High Quality Syn Oil with only 3300 miles....such a waste....
You could save it for the lawn equipment or ???
Nah, too much of a mess....

 

I could not read the nutrition facts in that last photo. Did you use the diet or high calorie version?

 

The Prime is now a week and a half old, so time for its first mod. Well, it wasn’t really a mod but more of an arts and craft project. A friend gave us the rear cargo mat from the Pilot they sold, so my wife no longer needed the felt liner she had in the back of her Pilot. I didn’t want the felt to go to waste, so I used it on the Prime. I should have put the stained side on the bottom, but too late for that. Here are some photos I took of the project.
