Bowing at the feet of the masters!

Hello PriusChat members! I have been reading this forum since I put down my deposit: I am now the proud owner of a 2008 silver package 6 Prius.

I am tremendously grateful for the fabulous information available here that has made driving my Millenium Falcon so much more pleasant! Thanks to the wisdom here I have already:

• turned off the reverse beep
• programmed my garage door to open from the rear view mirror
• increased the volume of my bluetooth microphone
• purchased a useful kit that lets me charge and play my iPod

I'm still not happy with the results of the iPod--I am finding myself having to fumble with the arm rest too often, so I have ordered the Toyota iPod part (PT 545 00049 is it?) and it should be installed early next week.

I registered to say a huge THANK YOU to all the great posters and their fabulous advice--this is a great place to learn!

 

Absolutely, I will. I have been researching this site for what to do to make the iPod operable without dragging the thing out every time I needed to start it up or switch playlists.

I'm still nervous about trying to install a DICE myself, despite the excellent price available from this shop here, and paying to have it installed makes it quite expensive.

There is something funky about the head unit for my radio anyway, and the dealer has to replace that, so as long as it's already open, I'm having them put in the Toyota part.

Did you know that my dealer's service department claims it can't install a non-Toyota part?
