    I pulled the armrest that had the cloth (that was starting to wear) and had it reupholstered. I then put it back into place.

    I also have an amp under the passenger seat, but it was a bit exposed when looking down with the door open. I don't really want anything falling onto it so I obtained some 12"x12" black ABS plastic 0.118" thick (~3mm). This was a bit thicker that I probably needed but it worked. It took me awhile to cut it with my dremel. I then used some boiling water to soften the ABS up so I was able to bend the front triangle portion to make it fit really well. Overall I'm really happy and now the amp is protected.

    Hey Asukadc,
    Mind if I ask how it did cost you for roof wrap and windows tint?
    If it was DIY, would you share the link where you ordered from?
    Thank you so much in advance!

    Nice texture! If I may ask, what did the shop charge to do the re-upholstery job?

    Whoa! Didn't see that blue to red logo switch coming!

    Really like the look of the lower LED-backed reflectors.

    Can I ask what kind of strips, and how you ran the power? I'm very new to Prius modding.

    Just do a search on eBay for 5050 led strip. They come in a roll of about 15 feet. And offer many colors. The cheaper prices are from China and take about 3-5 weeks. You can get them in the US too but cost a few bucks more.

    To ran the power, I tapped into the ignition wires then put a micro roller switch to the led So when glove is open it turns on and off when closed. And off if the car is off.

    'Glad' press n' seal on your driver door arm rest,it keeps clean, after 500 times of opening the door without it IMG_0036.jpg the arm rest will become black from your dirty elbow.

    Where exactly you ordered that that cover for the harness,I would love to put one on my v too,I hate to see those wires uncovered like that.

    What about the center console, my v doesn't have a light inside so I just bought me a LED stick up anywhere light by GE.At night I can't IMG_0039.jpg see anything in there and I keep my center console pretty crowded as you can see,the light it's on the right,that round white thing,it's pretty bright and the lights are LED so the batteries should last a long time.
