Late last June I held an install fest in Mountain View. This is the taped install of a coastal EV mod. Feel free to leave any comments if you liked the video.

Thunder's install (not his Prius)

Enjoy!

It was very informative and showed how quickly it can be done. The opening was a little ragged as the lower plastic plate and the lower glove box couldn't be removed, but the install went well despite that.

Thanks for sharing!

Fantastic! Thanks for the info. I installed my EV mod in 30 minutes!
Now how about some vids of Coastal E's iPod interface and the Ultimate Lock Pick installs

Great demonstration! I'm getting ready to do this to my car and can see how easy it is. I know you saved me some time. Would also like to see the Coastal iPod installation.

Thanks a million

I suggest you do not do business with this "organization". They do NOT respond and have no customer service. I have made it my job to go through Priuschat and make sure any threads that mention them also point to this thread:

I can understand the frustration you must feel resulting from your experience with Coastal's service. I would rather deal with an outfit that had good customer service but, from what I can tell, their products are first rate and that's most important to me. There are several items I want to order from them so I'll send good wishes and hope for the best.

Thanks so much for posting this video! Although I received mine about a month ago (delivery from Coastal Tech took about 10 days from when I ordered it), I only installed mine last weekend. Watching the video definitely upped my confidence in being able to do it myself! It took me just over 30 minutes.

That was great info! I was considering getting a mechanic to do it, but I feel I can tackle it myself now. Question, have you installed the power outlet mod? Any thoughts on that? hanks!

No, but I will soon :-) I also did a lockpick 3 full video of my first install... which I may post soon.

I'm glad people find the vid useful.
