I wonder what's so different that they don't offer 2005? And that page has like 5 of the same product number. And do they install it? Or is it hinges, bolts and screws for $1,250?

Apparently, they DON'T install it... Parts/plans get shipped... Did some searching around, couldn't find any pics. Then again, the Prius demographic isn't the type to do this sort of thing...

It WOULD be nice to have the option of winged doors, think of all the times you've been in crammed parking spaces, but not $1,250 nice...

That's for a classic.

Note that they say it's for 2001-2004.

Don't believe them I see online parts stores making that mistake all the time.

I'd be worried about the effects replacing the hinges on the structural safety cage of the Prius.. If you retrofit this kit, you may compromise the side-impact protection..

I wouldn't even think about doing this since it would greatly decrease resale value. But if I realy wanted to I would want to see one in person first. Not just photos and this company doesn't even have photos. It looks like a mistake. Maybe they were planning it and someone put it on the site by accident.
