It could have been much worse, since design of the interior in Japanese cars is one of the worst on the market these days, considering ergonomics and design of the switches, panels, etc. Even KIA does it better now but they benchmark to VW almost in everything they do.
Volume of the storage "compartments" in this car is ridiculous, I have more storage space inside my NCFL Miata, seriously. Door pockets barely fit winter gloves, you can forget about placing a bottle there, useless. No armrest compartment, useless. Often, there's a storage between the seats...
Hello, I need some advice on adding speakers into OEM mounting points. I have a B48 version, sold in Europe, which is by default equipped with 4 speakers only (yes, unbelievable I know). There are 2 speakers on front doors and 2 in the rear sub-woofer, that's all. I have factory mounting points...
One more question regarding torque spec. There's an "8Nm" written on the TPMS housing, which I'm sure applies to the nut #1. However, since I'm going to replace the valves to the black ones, I need to tight "self blocking" screw #2, to the valve #3, which has no place for any torque wrench...
Thank you for this info, this is exactly what I was looking for.
Update 28.02.2024: I just received these TPMS, purchased here for 33USD (including shipping): https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/1005006070956663.html Delivered within less than 2 weeks.
Fresh production, 2x August + 2x October 2023...
I'm going to order a new set of TPMS on Aliexpress. A set of 4 pcs. costs 30USD while the same set in Poland costs approx. 100USD. The ones I have installed on my MY23 car have PN: 36106877936-05, model TSSRE4A. I see there's a lot of offers for these 2 PNs, all are 433Mhz:

I'd like to install D-rings for cargo strap, in the OEM holes, marked on the picture #3. I'm wondering, if I just disassemble upholstery from pictures #1 & #2, is it going to be enough to locate the holes under the floor mat?
Have you finally ordered them from AliExpress? They seem to be an exact copy of OEMs but for price of 1 OEM you get 4 from Ali. I'm just wondering how long will battery last.
@tadda, @Torquem & @Prodrift thank you very much for posting your pictures and info on spacers, it's been very helpful. I'm also considering 10/13mm setup on a new set of OEM size rims + OEM suspension but with a set of Goodyear Asymmetric 6 tires (F:255/35/19 and R:275/35/19) which after...
You guys did an excellent engineering work on these spacers, DFMEA every aspect of the design. Example pictures are also very helpful. Is there a chance you can post additional pictures showing 12/15mm setup from below angles?
Well, it seems to be one piece but apparently looking at the pictures it can be separated, fabric from upper plastic part. How to do it? I'd like to install OEM tie down hooks 66311-WAA01 and bracket set tether anchors 73708-WAA01. Maybe someone has already installed them and can share a...
Hello, I'm trying to make some calculations for new set of summer wheels (new 19" rims + tires) and I'd like to know if perhaps someone has already measured these highlighted values for front and rear OEM suspension. Is there any information on stock "scrub radius" value? The rest of the...
I wish there were forward and backward buttons on the steering wheel, same as on BMW which it is based on. I have no idea why Toyota didn't take these steering controls 1 to 1 ...
I ordered this silicon key fob case on Ali for 2,9USD including shipping. It arrived after just 8 days and it fits and looks great. It shall protect key fob pretty well, especially since key fob is all plastic, without any metal core insert (which used to be common on all of my previous key fobs).
I have a brand new EU MY23 spec and none of these "extra features" have been mounted on my car: cargo strap, 12V trunk socket, driver side cargo net, D-rings, cargo net. I wonder if they really assemble them in the factory or these are only to be purchased as optional accessories, to be...
