    Search? What's up with the "search" function...never gives any pertinent results...seems like it doesn't recognize and return with the few/couple words I put in like say "window switch replacement" for ex.

    I've found the easiest way to search something on here is not to use the search function on this forum (which really isn't the best) but just google what you're after and include 'priuschat' in the search line. Works a treat. (y)

    Thought it was just me. To many choices and doesn't seem to work.

    Google is your best friend.

    And surprisingly it has many very uptodate results from here too.

    I turn to the music world.
    Whenever I use the Prius Chat search function I sing

    " I still haven't found what I'm looking for"....followed by " You can't always get what you want".

    Doesn't help me find anything but any frustration I might be encountering is tempered by my sudden desire to listen to U2 and The Rolling Stones.
