I have to ask, WHY are you so pleased with them. As with all things there are expensive & not so expensive. I have Weather-Tech for my windows and they are much better & yes expensive. I purchased mats from Sears, durable & reasonable,a cost effective product but just my opinion.

The floor liners fit perfectly out of the box, are easy to clean, and prevent water and other liquids from getting to the carpet. They also use the factory hooks on the front seats. I like mine. I'm sure there are less expensive choices that will work.

After Market Bluetooth for 2006 Avalon

Hi all, I recently picked up a used 2006 avalon limited. I love this car. Got rid of my Infinit M35x at end of lease. That car guzzled gas.
Anyway, I was looking at some aftermarket BT options and came across this
Scosche BlueFusion
My 3 questions are....
1. Has anyone used this product before?
2. Since this unit is made for the Toyota Avalon, all you need to do is pop out the radio, and plug it into the Sat Radio plug. No wire splicing at all. (My car does not have Sat Radio built in)
3. How hard is it to pop out the radio? Where can I find a manual to show me how to do it?
If anyone has removed the radio, I would like any advice or tips.
Thanks in advance to all.

Is the dash trime removal tool Toyota specific? or is it a generic tool. Where can I get it?
Thx for the info

Its generic. Just a slim piece of plastic. Crutchfield.com probably sells it for a few bucks.

I have had a similar problem (and many many more of far more impact) but the PW switch was a temporary thing.. it happened only once after the car was in for service and a wash. when I pressed the PW button for passenger window from the drivers side it did not work. when I reached over and pressed the switch for that window on the passengers button it did work... but the green light inside the switch was flashing...
I stopped sometime later on. put all the windows up and down all the way and then stop the engine, locking the car and opening it again and starting up, the problem did not come back.
of course it may have been a coincidence..
Good luck to you if this is all that has gone wrong with your avalon, my experiences have shown it is a s**t car as far as I'm concerned.. cheers

My experience has been just the opposite of doobre. I have a 05 Limited I bought new. I'm pushing 70K trouble free miles. Great ride and very good MPG, especially on highway. (Close to 30 doing 65 mph.)

yes well Jeff, if you had all the problems I have had with my avalon and the dealer says they can do nothing, either because they are "intermittent issues" or "the model sold in the middle east is not fixable as is the US model".. I think you'd be pissed too... and the arrogance of Toyota makes the situation worse...
this is my first and last Toyota..

Interesting comments, please explain "model sold in the middle east is not fixable as is the US model".
Sold where? What is different about the car? I thought all Avalons were made at the same place (Kentucky).
What sort of problems are you having?
