    What was your cost for the two tone leather seating? Did you order online and install yourself? Thanks

    Actually, it was dealer installed and wrapped into the sticker price before I even got the car so I'm not much help. I'm sure someone here though has had it done aftermarket that can give you more info.

    Some have ordered the leather seat covers and either installed themselves or had a professional install them. My dealer can have it installed for around $1500. This includes seat heaters I believe. I personally am interested in classic soft trim. They're a national aftermarket installer. I think their Boston office is in Wilmington. But there are a few companies out there.

    Ok, today I went to Pepboys and bought a small piece of fabric for cover the plastic panels behind the passenger seats. I have two kids and carry a lot of "Stuff" in the back hatch and the plastic covers were getting a little beat up. So in about 15 minutes, I cut out two pieces of fabric and just jammed it behind the plastic panels and it looks great!
    Check it out..

    That's a clever idea! It looks like it's a pretty good color match. Do you think it will stay attached well without adhesive?

    You appear to have a chrome or stainless exhaust tip. Would you share where you purchased this? Also, do you have any issues with its proximity to the plastic bumper ... i.e. is it getting too hot and melting the bumper?

    See link below:

    Tail pipe tip | PriusChat

    I have the tip about 1/2 inch away and found no problems so far but a member mentioned that after he got stuck in a traffic for a while his bumper melted! So I added a heat sink just in case below:

    It is barely visible from behind.

    No problems so far. :D

    Yes, it is staying on pretty well. NO adhesive was used. Since the install, I have used the cargo area a few times to hall stuff and the carpet has not budged. The carped material is wedged between the plastic and seat back pretty tight.

    So far so good....

    Have you found a source for SUN VISOR extensions of some sort since those on my 2012 V don't slide on the support or have any type of extension - and they aren't long enough!!

    Actually, I'm more interested in extending the sun visor to block the sun from the sides rather than the front.
