#728 of 1400 FLoor mats and cargo liner suggestions by sheila512 Sep 06, 2004 (8:45 am)
Here's a low tech question: My new 04 Higlander LTD needs some kind of protective floor mats. I have the carpet mats, but want to keep the car in good shape for re-sale. There are so many brands on the market. I am confused. 1. Do I need custom mats? 2. What is the difference between mats and liners? (Husky makes both) 3. Cargo liner..same questions.   Thanks for your input.   Sheila Replies to this message: edmunster (Sep 27, 2004 8:48 pm) racerx1 (Oct 06, 2004 5:43 am)
#729 of 1400 Lights on the instrumentation panel by livinginsc Sep 26, 2004 (9:01 am)
This is probably a silly question but one that hopefully there is an option for. I love my '04 Highlander with the exception of the instrumention panel, why are the lights on the panel white and the ones in the center console green? This is driving me crazy, is there anyway to make all of the lights one color? It doesn't look unified.

Replying to: sheila512 (Sep 06, 2004 8:45 am) You're better off with Toyota custom mats that offer a perfect fit - rather than take chances with generic ones that shift or bunch up. Cargo liners made out of rubber, are used in the cargo area to prevent any dirt, stains, or moisture from messing up the cargo mats. They may also contain anti-skid properties and often have a 'lip' edge to contain any liquid spills etc.   Sources: 1.

I also wanted to protect my carpeted mats because of the winters here in Western PA. I bought custom all weather mats [with "Highlander" on the front set] from toyotaparts4you.com. The four piece set cost around $65 and I think they look great. They also have a rubber cargo liner that looks sharp as well.
#732 of 1400 Considering a 05 Highlander Limited by arda Sep 28, 2004 (1:18 pm)
We are thinking of buying a 05 Limited 4x2 Highlander. I was wondering what other people are paying for limited highlanders these days. In your experience, does the Edmunds' TMV represent what the vehicles are selling for? The local dealers we talked all claimed that they will beat any published legitimate offer. How can I get the best offer so that I can get them beat it? Thanks, Arda-- Replies to this message: edmunster (Sep 28, 2004 4:58 pm)

Replying to: arda (Sep 28, 2004 1:18 pm) I got a good year-end deal on fully loaded HL 04 AWD/Limited, 3rd row & Navi for about $500 over invoice at a NYC dealership, which was less than Edmunds TMV. Edmunds TMV is an excellent tool for 'fair' pricing, and should serve as a guide when you get internet quotes from several dealers (print these quotes and use them as a bargaining tool). Internet pricing are the way to go, I bought my last 2 cars this way and encountered less hassle and saved time too. It may be tough to get a good deal on 05's as they are just starting to roll into the dealerships.
#734 of 1400 Several questions, Need some advice!! by dawnee Oct 02, 2004 (6:36 pm)
Went to dealership today to drive HL to be sure I liked it. Was telling salesman things I really wanted and when I mentioned a sunroof he said if I found an HL that did not have the sunroof that could be put in aftermarket and that they did it all the time. They may do it all the time but I have heard horror stories, even in this day and time, of aftermarket accessories like a sunroof never working as well as the original. Anyone have any experience with this, good or bad?   Next thing is I have seen on some websites that there is an accessory of electrochromatic mirror with compass & outside temp gauge for the '04 HL but I don't see this listed anywhere on Edmunds. Can anyone tell me if this is an option or maybe it is standard in one of the packages and I am missing it.   Also the salesman told me he could price me an '05 cheaper than an '04, even though '04 had a $1,000 rebate, which sounded really wrong to me especially since he would be pricing a base model V6 FWD '05 with a app pkg, running lights, fog lights, pwr driver seat, mats and tow pkg, any thoughts from anyone out there about this?? Of course, maybe it was because he said they pretty much only had Limited '04's but I would think they would still want to get rid of those to make way for their '05's and so they would be willing to negotiate down more than normal on those Ltd '04's. Best I can tell the cheapest Ltd they have, invoice wise, is $28,775. Is it feasible to think they would come down even $1,000 below invoice since it is an '04? Or is that just ridiculous??   Sorry this is lengthy, just wanted the opinion of some people who have bought from Toyo dealers as my last vehicle purchase was from GM and their negotiations are quite different, just like now their rebates are sizeably more than Toyos.   All opinions and input appreciated.

Replying to: dawnee (Oct 02, 2004 6:36 pm) dawnee: I would go with the factory sunroof. The after market jobs can be alright and I have had it done but they are usually manual operation and of course not guaranteed by the mfgr. The dealer can trade with another dealer if he doesn't have what you want in stock. They will try to force you into something on their lot if they can so hold out for what you want.   The monochromatic mirror and compass are standard with the limited. In fact I didn't particularly want to pay for a limited but there are so many extras included with the package I went for it.   You are correct to be wary of a dealer who says he can sell you an '05 cheaper than an '04. Sounds like typical dealer BS.

Replying to: sheila512 (Sep 06, 2004 8:45 am) I used the Toyota All -Weather mats in the front but a Husky mat for the back. The Husky is great since it has a big lip (which fits the car perfectly and doesn't get in the way) to keep in the dirt in, like a tray. Plus it extends well under the front seats, which most rear mats don't.

Landdriver, I'm trying to shut off the loud thump on the JBL premium system. On your post #632 Connectors on the power amp everything you show matches. On the A connector I have 3 other pins,A2 gray,A12 brown and A4 blue. Do you know what they are or where I could find this out? When I run the radio with out the engine running I don't hear It.I tried pulling A1 remote wire and nothing works. Replies to this message: landdriver (Oct 11, 2004 3:19 pm)
