      I think if you look up some videos on changing the two Z engine in a Corolla you'll get an idea of maybe what's going on as this is the same engine couple to a different transmission. But it fits just like it does in the Prius same essential front end just different fenders and trim some guys when they don't have lifts engine hoist ganyard frames etc they just undo all the mess and use a jack to set it all on t

      hey, ever think about adding some flexible solar panels so you never have to install the bmw thing for battery conservation? with solar, ideally you wouldn't ever worry about draining the battery..

        yes, not until they have 500 watts the size of our hood would I feel it's worth it. or some foldable 1000w system that I can slide under the mattress. but I'm already laying on the projector screen and showering popup. That's when I thought of at what point is too much to carry too much as I plan the hot tub...

        You can fit ~ 3 Renogy 100w flexible on the roof. You’re right it’s not 500w on the roof but I am testing out two of these panels now. One on back windshield and the other on top of our cargo box.

        Hot tub eh? You using a new large heating element?!

        yes, a third-party engineering company that tests products prior to their application for SAE J684 certification confirmed the weight for us. The plan is to apply for certification, did you know no Prius hitch is certified?

      Let me know when you find a place in Alaska. If it is in the Eagle River area I have a friend who lives there and can ship to him.
