there are no major changes to the sienna until 2010. I'm not sure what they will be though..they keep us in the dark until last minute on stuff like that.
We just went through a major change on the Sequoia's and that is a big pain, so I'm not looking forward to it.

Hi Jilliew,
 
Can you tell me where you saw the spoiler for $139? Also have you had the fog lights installed yet? I saw those bling lights on ebay and emailed the guy but his answer he didn't answer my questions. I don't see how they'll mount at the stock location without hacking up the black grilles.

Hi, I got the spoiler at www.spoilersource.com had it installed and it looks real nice. When you hit the brakes, and your brake lights, rear window light and spoiler LEDs all light up it looks like Xmas. I had bought a set of f/r mud flaps, rear bumper protector, cargo net and the spoiler and took it all to a body shop and they charged me $150 to put it all on. You are right about the bling lights, even if you cut through the plastic grills they wouldn't fit right. I took them to my mechanic, the body shop, a car stereo shop and they all said there was no way they would fit and look nice and if they did cut up the grills, they wouldn't be protected from the weather and they would get water damage. Toyota wants $150 each fog light and the same to install them. What a rip off. I wrote the Bling Lights Racing guy also and told him I wanted my $$$$ back because he misrepresented the lights and haven't heard from him either. I am going to contact PayPal tonight and file a claim against him. If you or anybody else comes across some good fog lights that will fit, let me know. Jill

I was searching for some fog lights for my 09 Corolla and ran across a old post. Did you ever find some fog lights to fit your 09 Corolla just curious as i see some out there on e-bay that say they are OEM Style Replacement.
 
Thanks

I had sort of given up but went on ebay and did find something other than those Bling Lights, for which I got a full refund. I wasn't about to cut up my car. The 3 on ebay all look like you just pull your plastic mold out and put the new ones in, wire it and install the switch. Not something I can do. LOL All the lights are clear and they don't tell you how far you are going to be able to see. Tell me if these are the same ones you saw.

Also trying to find a half mask but no luck. Seems like there is one out there for every car but this one.

My 2009 COROLLA S by lakesguy

Just purchased my second corolla (other was a 2006 S). I paid $400 over invoice. Initial drive of the car was very nastolgic as to the previous style Corolla.
My car is an (S), Black Sand Pearl, 5-spd Stick, 6 disk changer, and all the other bells and whistles. I've driven it about 60 miles to get back home. RPM's in my manual trans Corolla were exactly 3,000 at 70 MPH. Very much like my '06 I traded in. The interior appears to look maybe a little cheaper, as the plastic is very hard and not as nice looking as the previous (S) I owned. Seats are comfortable as expected, ride is controled and nice. The car is VERY quiet on the highway (better than previous years). JBL sound system w/XM is wonderful and "thumps" accordingly. One thing previously noted in another thread somewhere here is that the clock is located in a multifunction little window inside the gauge cluster. You need to push the little button in to switch between clock/mpg/average miles to empty/etc. Not as convienient as previos models, but still functional.
The car is also noticably a bit wider and seems longer too (although I'm not sure it is). Completely satisfied with my peppy, fuel effiecient, redesigned COROLLA S.
Dealer where purchased....KOLAR Toyota, Duluth Minnesota. Only had 5 new corollas....2-S's, others were LE's. Enjoyable buying experience.

I purchased Corolla S 2009 too and waiting for the vehicle delivery.
I like new design, quieter engine and all other futures it has, but don't like at all BRIDGESTONE TURANZA EL 400 OEM tires. These tires have low performance ratings, they are on 22 place in the category, are noisy even brand new, and after 15 000 miles the comfort and road noise is unbearable.(according the Tire Rack survey)
 
Could you share your experience in this matter and what is OEM tires on your Corolla S.

I have the same tires on my 2009 Corolla S. Only have 1100 miles on my car, but so far the tires are grippy and very quiet. I realize this may change with time, but who knows. I do know that the tires have a low mileage rating, which is somewhat disappointing since I live in MN and need tread to grip in the snow filled winters. I expect I will be buying tires before I really want to.
