Stupid Question on Controls
 
Why dint Toyota keep the indicator/wiper controls on the normal "correct :)" side.

Here i thought driving 2 Toyos and i never have to think twice :-(

I agree with u 100 %.
It's a Japanese car demmit.
Indicators must go on the RIGHT.
It's so frustrating. to have to think before indicating.

Amen! This is not supposed to be a European car!!! It has a Hilux radio, why didn't they just use the Hilux switches aswell!!!

Razzle 01-29-2013 04:19 AM

Urgh, that radio...
If they weren't gonna put in a GPS, why didn't they just fit a normal size deck. now you can't put in a normal aftermarket deck. :(

Glad I'm not the only one.:happyanim: jumping between the Fortuner and 86, I yell everytime I hit the wrong lever and my windscreen gets messed up.....:mad0260:

Ya especially when you want to flash some idiot driver on the road and end up washing your windscreen instead :mad0259:

I love the controls as i use my wife's jetta often too... :happyanim:

JouMaSeHoes 01-29-2013 05:09 AM

Yep, controls work for me, Amarok and 86 are the same.

BUT, after driving my wife's Pajero everything goes to pot for a couple of days afterwards.

Screw that, they're on the correct side. :D It's about time they started doing that - same with Honda, they used to be on the right side but now also on the left.

Ryan86 01-29-2013 06:37 AM

Morning Sav, :happy0180: you sleep in???:happyanim:

Vic_RSA 01-29-2013 06:37 AM

Oddly enough this only becomes a problem for me when I drive my girlfriend's I20? Obviously my Mini's are imprinted into my mind! :bonk:
