Mud flaps for a 2004?

mikepaul · 02-02-2004, 04:08 PM

Can't find a topic where this was asked outright, so I'll start one.

I'm looking at the streaks on the car post-icestorm, and I think a set of mud flaps would come in handy even if not completely aerodynamic.

Anyone know of some that would work well on a 2004?...

HEY! There\'s no group buy planned anymore! Ignore any mention of a group buy you see down this thread!!!

I have seen this addressed on some of the other Prius forums without any resolution. I too have the problem, my Salsa Red shows the mud kicked up from the front wheels here in the rainy Northwest. So, I thought I would give it a try. I did a search on British Columbia Toyota Dealers since they are just across the border from Washington. I found a dealer that had online parts ordering so I placed an order for the part number (C0060-47004-P) mentioned last night. This morning I received an email from Steve at Toyotatown in Langley, BC stating that they were available from his local warehouse at $50 (Canadian)a set of 4, plus tax. I replied asking if he could ship to the lower 48 and he replied, “Not a problem. Shipping via USPS is probably the cheapest. Now, I did try to look up the part number for a splash guard set for a Prius in my Canadian listings, and didn't find one, so I used the number you provided. Assuming that is the correct number you should be ok. If you would like to go ahead with this, you can either email me back all the information, or give me a call at 604-530-9151.”
I called and ordered a set paying by Visa. He said he would look them over to verify the part number when they came in. I asked if he would mind my providing this information on this forum and he had no problem with it.
I will follow up with more details later.

do you have any pictures of the mud guard? i'm interested but want to see how they look like when installed...

I'm very interested in these also. If they are the tough, molded type that I put on my wife's Corolla, I think they would work very well. Please provide more info as soon as you see them. Thanks.

FYI,
The southeast dealers are offering an option as follows:

Splashguards-MG10 $89

There is no picture or other information provided.

These splash guards come standard on Canadian Prii, they are the custom molded original equipment type.

They can be viewed in th e-brochure available on the Toyota Canada site.
http://www.toyota.ca/cgi-bin/WebObjects/WW...v169080e%2ehtml

They are shown on the page that shows the various colors available.

Mine are still in transit but I will post Photos when they arrive.

At $50 Canadian they are a real bargain.

I ordered by phone and paid by Visa which automatically calculates the exchange rate. I believe that splashguards are a Canada only feature.
Toyota Canada has had them made for Canadian distribution. They are clearly stamped "Made in Canada". The part# is C0060-47004-P. I contacted Steve at Toyotatown in Langley, BC Phone 604-530-9151. He shipped mine via USPS last week.

I did not ask him about the window shades. Someone on one of the other forums said that they had contacted Vent-A-Shade and they do not have them yet but are working on them.

Thanks seasalsa! Even though I'm a long ways away from west coast, I plan to call tomorrow and get these ordered, even if I have to pay some extra freight. Looks like Canada got lots more goodies than US did, as was also the case with the Echo I had.
