#1385 of 1400 Re: Fog lights on the base model [theJC] by mdhutton Jan 02, 2009 (3:11 pm)
Replying to: theJC (Jan 02, 2009 8:26 am) I love hearing these stories of folks with the base model and all of the aftermarket time and $$ they've spent accessorizing their HLs to be equipped like a higher-level model. If you've got the time and inclination, more power to you; for me, I'd rather just purchase a higher trim level from the start.   Curious though...you say the Toyota-like switch from Yaris fit perfectly into the slot. The fog light control for those HLs that have them factory-installed is on the turn signal column. Is that what you're referring to?
#1386 of 1400 Aftermarket Stereo Installation Kits (Photos?) 2001 by gary Jan 06, 2009 (9:14 am)
I would like to replace my factory headunit in my non-JBL in-dash setup. I purchased a Sony mid-priced unit. Anyone had any success doing this? I need the specific brand and model number of the installation kit used and any photos you may have. I've heard of Scosche, American International and Metra.   I already purchased the wiring harness.   This is a Single DIN unit in a 2001 non-JBL setup.   Thanks in advance.

Are there any chassis lube points on a 2005 Highlander V6 AWD?
#1388 of 1400 What to get OEM vs Dealer by maryclover Feb 17, 2009 (12:17 pm)
Hey all,   I just purchased an 09 Highlander (thanks tax credit!). I got the base Limited with Option Package #7 which basically ads Blue Tooth and 6 CD changer. I also go the Power Lift gate. I have a few option questions:   Remote Entry - is it worth having the dealer put this in. I know I want it and am afraid if I have it installed elsewhere and they mess up the wiring it will void my warranty. ($695)   All weather mats - I know I'm probably better off getting these OEM.   "Protection Packages" - I've never had leather seats before, so I'm wondering if this is worth it. $328. "Environmental Corrosion Protection" (basically rust proofing) $250. "Acid Rain Protection" - $499.   Is there anything else I desperately need?   Thanks for your input.   Mary Replies to this message: mdhutton (Feb 17, 2009 4:23 pm) bob259 (Feb 25, 2009 5:35 am)

Replying to: maryclover (Feb 17, 2009 12:17 pm) All of the "protection" packages you mention are a ripoff. OEM all-weather floor mats are a good investment and if you're more comfortable with the dealer doing the work on the remote entry if you know you want it, then go for it.   Did they explain to you what exactly they do for the protection packages, and could they tell you the difference between "environmental corrosion" and "acid rain?" Did they do so with a straight face? I'm wondering how these con artists sleep at night?

Replying to: maryclover (Feb 17, 2009 12:17 pm) On the weather mats I'd get the ones from Weathertech as they contain any runnoff and protect the carpet better then the Toyota ones (Had them both)   For the Protection Pkgs. some are rips offs as mentioned, but depending on where you live I would go with the rust proofing only. On my 06 I had the paint sealant (thrown in on the deal) and I could see the buffer markes in certain light conditions (night) so I was mad from day 1, on the new 08 left over I just purchased I had the rust proofing and interior protection, as it does the carpets and they say the leather as well and with the lighter interior I didn't want a stain. For the outside I'll use Griot's paint sealant and apply myself with a good carnuba wax.
#1391 of 1400 Trailer Wiring Trunk 2009 Toyota Highlander Hybrid by mineralake Mar 30, 2009 (6:29 pm)
I ordered an after market trailer hitch package with electrical connections included. All went very well, until I tried to hook up the 4 prong connection in the "trunk". I have a third seat and don't know how to access the prewired connection, that my directions show would be located under the third seat. Does the compartment with tools for changing a tire pull out to expose the wire connection? I was reluctant to do a lot of pulling of the tool tray, not knowing how it is attached. Pls advise.

#1394 of 1400 Trailer connector type? by jrfiero Jul 20, 2009 (7:14 am)
I have a 2001 V6 Ltd with the Toyota towing package - does anyone know off the top of their head what connector it has (7-pin round, 6-pin round, etc)?   I'm buying a light kit for my utility trailer which has a four-pin flat connector so I expect I need an adapter, I just don't know which adapter. My wife has the HL so I can't go check.   A Toyota dealer service guy just told me it has a 6-pin flat, which I can't find any reference to elsewhere.   Jonas Replies to this message: jrfiero (Jul 24, 2009 3:21 am)
