    Woot! I got my Prius hood and my prescription sunglasses came (to be stashed in the sun glasses storage area), now you can be faily certain the sun will never shine again in the San Fran Bay Area.

    One of my favorite add-ons is the power outlet connector- to make the front (formerly called cigarete lighter outlet) outlet always on- coastaletech.com - costs about $10. That way my cell phone can be charging even if the car is off.

    Here's the instructions. As you can see you can even use your own parts.

    When I got my Prius hood certified I was notified that I qualified for..... Man hood!

    2nd part doesn't matter as it never rains in Southern California.

    Woot? That's a great exclamation!

    With the Prius power OFF and that 12v auxiliary outlet enabled, your very small 12v battery has been reported run down by a device (like a cellphone) connected, forgotten and left on or charging. When the 12v auxiliary battery is run down, you can't start the Prius until you recharge it so it can close the main relay to connect the big traction battery.
