What did you do to ur Gen III Prius today????

Partially correct on 2/5

Does that include a lifetime supply of lube?

 

American Tire charge $150. Then I went to another shop in Long Beach which charge $100 to move TPMS from 15" to 17" and balance. Give me new stems

 

Contents of mystery package #1, an inverter cover installed...

...and no, I didn't forget to re-attach the ground wires...




...6am be damned...

...at least that is the thought process for now...

...tomorrow morning it may be different thought process entirely...



Footwell LED Update:


Actually bright enough to see the dirty mat and carpet without any other light source...

 

Blocked the lower portion of my grill. Haven't done any driving yet so not sure what the MPG gains will look like. I typically don't turn on my heat when driving, which has gained me around 3 MPG. Where's the warm weather so I can get my upper 50 MPG back!

Need to give it a bath to!

 

Special thanks to @B2FiNiTY for installing my steering wheel, great to meet you. When you're in Fremont, let's hook up.
Steering wheel feels and looks 100% better, so happy with this upgrade.

 

How was the install? Difficult? Do you have to get a steering wheel Alignment?

 

Install looked easy when B2FiNiTy installed it, steering wheel is cocked a little to the left but not so bad. Probably will have to do alignment again.

 

Would it be an alignment or adjusting the tie rod ends?

 

Tie rod ends.

 

Thank you @xliderider, saves me from doing another alignment, I've Gone through 2 already. One for lowering & two for installing camber bolts & camber shims.

 

Here at wekfest HI with the Airrex crew setting up.

 

We get to @eight08customs ride with his new wheels before he even posts himself! lol

 

Got my CT200H rims installed. Very happy. Ran 25mm spacer in the rear and none in the front. It's nice and flush. Prius Plugin 2014 rims + tires + lugs on sale in Private Sales. No center cap. I moved it over to the CT200H

 

Out with the old...in with the new lil sneak peak before i take better pics tomorrow. 3hrs installation

 

No need to cut the ground wire bracket.

Once I removed the stock mini cover, it went right on without a problem. Otherwise I would have had to cut the edge of the stock cover in front of the ground tab. There's a small edge on the right side that gets in the way. It's a single strip of double sided tape that holds it on.

 

I see, I tried putting mine on with the stock mini cover on & didn't want to go on. Thank you for the advice, I'll do that tonight. Cheers!

 

...and don't worry about any of the warnings on the cover about electrocution...


650+ volts is harmless in small doses...

 

@sfprankster that is some kind of mod list for a signature you got there...

 

@TopRamen it was a pleasure, enjoy! I ended up going down to fremont in the afternoon after all and spent 4 hours detailing my buddy's car. Going to get some good night sleep tonight.
