      Hey @PriusCamper, in the thread linked below I think you said you had some electrical connectors for 3rd-gen Prius battery fans. I am building my reconditioner and was wondering if you either have a spare connector or can confirm that Toyota 90980-10795 is what I need to buy. Thanks in advance :)

      Hello, I saw this post "There's so many cheap Gen2 inverters for sale because we buy them only to realize it wasn't the problem after all. The codes were pointing at the wrong source of the problem... I got one that's been collecting dust on my parts rack for 3 years for this reason. Never been able to find anyone who really needs to replace one." I have P0A72 - Wondering ...did you discover a remedy ?

      Hi. I'd love a set of the HID housings. Shipping to 66224. Are the clear lenses in good shape?

        Seems too good to be true... But with a price like that and it already having a headgasket done means you can get a lot of years before upgrading with Gen4 engine & Nexcell pack. So car would last a really long time, but the benefits of a plugin Prius would be lost and it'd be more expensive in terms of gas and engine lifespan.

      Talked to the guy and he said wiper issue is it needs new spring and the sensor is some sensor connected to the info cluster and claims dealer said $120 to replace which probably means $1000 lol

      Hey boss, don't make any special calls or anything but was wondering if you heard when the next batch of lithium would be shipped out. For some reason I never got a confirmation email or text and like a dummy did not rite down my order number lol

      Hey there! Does the EV Mode button work well with the new Lithium batteries you are using? I ended up getting the Lithium battery pack and was thinking of doing the EV button mod. :)

      PC. Hello. I own 2 Prii. both 08's one with 113K one with 116K starting to show signs of Hybrid battery issues. But I'd like to try a Prolong discharge/recharge attempt before just buying a new Hybrid Battery. What would you recommend? I'm going to see If I can try and find somebody near me to loan/show me how to use one.
      I need to get 4 more years out of these cars for my wife and I. TIA.

      Battery from Ebay offered by ExpertBattery- I have a few questions... Do you have any specific instructions or more details about install? Gen2 compatible? Smart Keyless Entry compatible? Does it have a vent on it? If so, does it vent with the current stock Prius parts? What kind of a life span are you seeing with these batteries? Thanx for any advice you can give.

      Hey PC! I sent you a message back in mid-Oct but maybe you missed it. Anywho, was wondering if I can pick your ear via either email, PM or phone, as I too will be starting my Prius nomad adventures full-time soon, and I'm really lost on a few things. I'm somewhat disabled and nervous about what the future holds. If we can chat about some Prius related stuff I'd be REALLY appreciative. Thanks - Joe

      When did you switch to 0w20 oil and were you having any issues before the switch?

      What's the best way to contact you? I'd really love to pick your brain with a few questions I have. Suffered a major stroke last year, and currently going thru a divorce. A Gen 2 Prius will soon be my new home, but I'm SO confused on some items. I'd greatly appreciate your help. Joe

      Hey, I saw your signature on someone's post and noticed you removed the center console from your Prius for get a bit more usable space inside. Do you have any photos of this? That seems like a really interesting mod.

      Hello PriusCamper,
      I'm ok if you can sell me the ECU and I will pay the expedition.
      My original ECU has the reference 89890-47092.

      Thanks a lot !
