I don't really like the centre console... the cup holders are out of place. Also the stupid rear pillar... when i change lane I look about 13543562487594354 times -.-

In the future I may attempt to relocate them to the cup holder area. I have installed a cover from JDM so they would be completely hidden. Of course if would be helpful if one of the companies out there would make a "Seat heater Button relocation kit" Hint, hint
You're the only person I have read complain about the switch placement. Putting them further back in the cupholder area would make them very awkward to operate, IMO. If you really wanted to relocate, you could purchase a kit that moves them to the outside of the seat.

-Adjust your mirrors to compensate. I haven't missed a car in my blind spot yet.
-Buy a travel mug with a good lid that seals completely when you aren't drinking out of it. I go over railroad tracks with mine on a regular basis and zero spills
-Don't put your phone on the passenger seat Also, you can turn that off through techstream, I hear.

Complaining about the thick C pillars and lack of rearward visibility is silly. If they were designed another way the car would not look as good. Just adjust your mirrors properly and be cautious with lane changes!

Yeah, what the heck is up with that? I can't hear mine at all. The other Toyota's and Subaru's I've owned are loud enough to hear from far away.

Take it to the dealer, they can change the volume for you. Goes up to 7, our cars are set from the factor at 4.

Of course, you would know they can make this change if you

smh....
