    Hi Akima,

    Thanks for posting these pictures. If you don't mind, could you post the information for these iPad mounts? They would be perfect for my kids.

    Thanks,
    Allan

    Shift knob mod. It's almost triple the size of the OEM knob, and takes getting used to. Not sure what I think of it.

    I have that same shift knob. Once you get used to the bigger size, you'll find the stock knob laughably small. The only disadvantage is it blocks the EV button from view (but you already know where it is) and the RHD shift pattern might confuse people borrowing your car.

    No one "borrows" my car, not even my wife. I make her so nervous every time she sits in it - "careful this, careful that" - that she refuses to drive it.

    I figure the Toyota service people know what they are doing... Discount Tire or Costco for new rubber perhaps.

    Yes, I've had no problems with them including valet. They drive the Prius enough that they know the shift pattern by heart.

    I did transmission oil change on my prius today. It was fun. I had changed the transmission oil for the first tme at around 72k miles when i bought it and then changed now at 87k to flush since the first fluid was plain black water and this time it was dark purple so now im going to change it every 30k from now on.

    Got the Alpine INE-Z928HD unit installed yesterday. Very happy with this upgrade. Lots of features, great sound quality and accurate navigation system :)

    It's the "gungrip" JDM steering wheel. Most people have the other "cancer grip" version.
