I am about to purchase one of these bad boys. My dealer says it has arrived at the port in Florida and so I wanted to review the options I'm thinking about putting on this thing. Cann anybody tell me where i can see pics of this Carbon Fiber Dash option? What is it and is it any good? Is it worth the price ($400.00)Why would i want this option? Thanks to all..

We too are interested in a tonneau cover for the back. Since it's not listed as standard equipment for a third row version does anyone know if any modifications are required on the vehicle or if the mounting holes are there?
It's confusing to us why this is not standard equipment for the more expensive third row Limited RAV, but is standard in the two row editions.
So, in a few (100) words that's it.
For the dealer-installed system, is the flashing LED installed in the same place as that for the Limited model (on the lower-tier centre console)? And to what extent can the security system be customized or programmed by the dealer? (I think Toyota calls their customizable electronics, the "B.E.S.T." system)
By programmable, I mean features such as motion or glass-break sensor; passive arming and/or locking; enable or disable audible arming and disarming confirmation beeps, light flash, etc. Actually, does Toyota release a list of all electronic settings that can be reprogrammed by the dealer?
I do not use the top netting that came with the RAV Limited, only the soft netting.

The nutshell version is this: unless HID lighting was installed at the factory when the vehicle was built, it's not street legal.
Thanks in advance.

Could I make a set out of peterbuilt ones ? I think they would be too thick .. How do they mount ? Do you just screw them on ?
As long as they are on line I dont mind waiting for them to arrive .I can't find any hetre in Calgary so far ..
They have installation manual, think they sell that also. You need to stick add-on TIGER to make it genuine WOOD. It is only imitation.
I guess some is real wood that's been plasticized or otherwise treated to make it denser and maybe avoid splinters in the event of an accident.
Did you ever get anywhere with this? I'm looking at buying a Sport but the 3rd row would be nice sometimes. I wonder if, over time, you could take one from a wrecked Rav4 or order a kit or some sort?
Thanks,
Tim
The dealer quoted me about $500 (parts & labor). I don't want to install this myself, but the price seems really high to me when I see mirrors like the one I want on E-Bay for around $200 (can't believe the labor's that intensive).
First, can anyone tell me if the dealers use an OEM part that I should be specifically looking for, or are they buying a Gentex or other aftermarket part?
Second, what part is best for my vehicle and what can I expect to pay for parts and labor? (I live in a suburb of Chicago.)
Any help appreciated!
