    Dear Mr. or Ms. Moderator,

    Two guys called NutzAboutBolts have been creating fantastic Prius Gen III maintenance videos. Please give them a sticky area to keep all of their video links in one place. I followed two of their videos already, and they were very easy and clear.

    Thanks!

    There's a forum section called Knowledge Based Articles and Discussion. That's where a lot of videos and how tos are located.

    That doesn't seem like the place members will come to first for maintenance advice.

    I was thinking the same thing. Nutzaboutbolt's videos are really helpful, even if you've got the step-by-step from Toyota Repair Manual, for a couple of reasons:

    1. A video is worth 10,000 words.
    2. The hands-on demonstration cuts through a lot of the BS in Toyota's instruction. Often there are unnecessary steps, or omissions.

    Yes, sticky links would be good.
