I was in the US recently and grabbed a Home Depot sound generator removal plug while I was there

Looks OEM.

I got the Mishimoto kit from ft86sf last year and oddly enough the plug I received was too small for the hole so I shipped it back. Hope this works better without much headache.

It fits well. I also notched it to lock it from rotating on the intake tube like a factory fitting. Hard to explain but you’ll see exactly what I mean when it’s in front of you.

Finally grabbed a Valenti Euro relay.

The lack of tap-turn in this car was driving me crazy.

Most modern cars have a feature where you can just tap the indicator stalk and it will flash the turn signal 3 times. For when you are changing lanes or for roundabouts. This adds that features so it’s now the same as my Toyota Corolla.

Super easy install. 5 mins max. The hardest part is pushing the mounting clip off the old relay to install on the new one.

Picked up some Toyota Window visors.

You can download the fitting instructions here using the part number
http://toyotamanuals.com.au/accessories

I am chasing the templates if anyone knows where I can download some to print.

Thanks man.

Toyota finally found a copy of the rainguard template PDF and emailed it to me so if anyone wants a copy, send me a PM.





I need to take some more pics of the outside now.

Very nice car! Would you happen to have a side profile shot showing the black fender fins and TRD protectors? I'm thinking of getting the same mods.
