    I'd really like to find a chrome shifter but without any engravings or bas relief. Just a smooth, chrome ball. Ever seen one anywhere for Prius?

    Thanks, Rodney, for keeping us posted.

    Although I like the "little prius" logo on the other shifter, I like the fact that this one matches the lighting in our cars.

    Ya guys I tried rakuten, it shows all in English but when u checkout it wants a japanese address and says cannot ship outside japan. And I don't wanna use a Japanese third part address forwarding service. What if they are out of stock (because of part shortage) and hold your money for an extended time?

    Is it possible to get the B R N and D in Japanese characters? Now that would look cool. :)

    Is there a gen II version too?

    HEY PRIUS CHAT FOLKS !!!

    :):):):)

    For those that have asked about the availability of the OGS Electronic Shifter, Clazzio will be updating me as far as a best cost effective way / efficient delivery of this item so that we can move forward.

    And as far as the availability for the Generation II Prius, unfortunately they are not available at this time.

    I will update you all as soon as possible !!!

    HEY PETERJMC !!!

    I mounted the Square LED housing on the Rear portion of that Panel and ran the wiring through the opening there as well.

    I didn't want to mount the housing above as the mounting surface was not flat enough and it didn't create a concealed/hidden look.

    Has anyone tried to contact the people that make it and ask if THEY can make them (for the U.S. market) with those 2 buttons switched around?

    Hey XJUSTINX,


    Several factors are considered as far as order placement, availability, shipping, taxes, and the amount in an order. And not to mention remaining competitive in the Final Price.

    As soon as I hear word from Clazzio I will update you with the information.

    HEY PRIUS CHAT FOLKS !!!

    Here's the latest mod on the HB II Prius !!!

    My Custom Clazzio Leather Seats arrived on 05-05-11 !!!

    I ordered the Black Leather Seating with the Ivory Stitching ... This complements the VIP look that I am going for with the Prius !!!

    Was so excited I installed them right away and I was very impressed !!!

    Here are some pictures !!!

    I had taken the Doors taken to Wahl Upholstery to get the inserts also wrapped in the Clazzio Leather to match and double stiched ...

    Overall, I am very pleased with the Quality, Fitment, and Craftsmanship of the Clazzio Leather.

    I didn't do a DIY for the installation as there great instructions already provided with the product !!!

    I also felt it was better to remove the bolts to access the seat undersides better, and because I had installed lighting underneath, I wanted to make sure it was a clean installation.

    Overall I am Another satisfied customer !!!

    If you have any questions, feel free to ask !!!

    So, the covers/kit went OVER the silver trim on the door panels/arms (around the window and lock control area)? I just had my dealership cover the doorpanel inserts yesterday, and I specifically asked them about the possibility of doing the silver parts, cause I hate them. They told me that it COULDN'T be done... So, how did the leather go on the silver parts on the doors?

    HEY GOLDPIANOGARDEN !!!


    The Clazzio Kit Does NOT include the Door Inserts / Handles.

    I had purchased extra material and took the door panels to Wahl Upholstery Shop and they removed the Inserts and the Handles and wrapped them with the extra Clazzio material I had purchased separately.

    As you can see it can be done, it just needed to be removed. Contact your local upholstery shop and they'll be able to assist you !!!
