I'd prefer just the plastic pod that wraps around the shifter
Anyone interested in an xchange?
I have the plastic pod, as you describe it, and the separate optional 2001 console behind it. Limited (meaning the really bad fake woodgrain) & beige.
Thanks,
Hutch
Thanks
I have 2 car keys and remote keyless entry things
I would be very surprised if you really have a different lock for the trunk/hatch. If you really only have one key that works in the hatch lock, that would mean that lock was replaced since the time of manufacture and they were really stupid when they replaced it. I'm pretty sure that a dealer can order a body lock to match the existing ignition lock, which avoids the extra key issue.
There is one speed signal which goes to the dvd deck under the drivers seat and to the dash display screen. Procrastination is a terrible thing.
Since my dash display had to be replaced I am wary of the modification and warranty. The next trip I take will be in September and will probably get so annoyed at the stupidity that I will be modifying it when I get home.
I will report when this happens
There is a way around that.

Works like a charm
Has anyone carried out mods to the highlander 3.3V6 to upgrade the motor performance.
Thanks

I will try that first opportunity.
Many electronic keypads have hidden codes and keys, It doesnt surprise me that there is a hidden sequence. What is a surprise that this is the first time I have seen mention of it.In video games its called cheat codes. On interlocked equipment, its hidden keys and switches used for service. If this works on my HL will probably forego any mods.I will be able to get my wife to program on the road.
Would like to know what product you used and how you did it.
Must be nice to 'wake up the dead'....
Thanks again
Tell me how it goes with the other buttons. I always meant to but I'm only in the car when I'm in a mad rush somewhere. It would also be nice to work out how to permanently overide so you don't have to do the key sequence each time you get in the car.
Most of all, how to play dvds on that screen. For that I'd give mineral rights
would like to know if I can change the short curved (approx 8 " long)
intake to the box??????
It has a 4" opening in air box , & only 2"air inlet.

Thanks
Definitely yes, as HLs with the JBL option have a power amp external to the head unit.
Not sure whether and, if so, to what degree the JBL head unit is any better in terms of sound quality relative to the non-JBL head unit. I'd question going through the hassle and uncertainty of upgrading the head unit as the speakers are what affect sound quality the most -- consider keeping the non-JBL head unit and add an aftermarket power amp and speakers to improve the sound!
Are there any others out there that have kept the base head unit and added an amp and better speakers? Has the sound quality greatly improved?
Somehow, I think everybody else on this board sort of knew it too...)
Also is it possible to add heaters to leather seats on vehicle?
Don't be put off by the name. They have many accessories for the Highlander and are currently having a sale. They want $69 and change for four smoke colored deflectors. I don't know how this compares with other places but I have had good luck with the service and products here. This weekend is 20% off I think but I deleted my email.
They sell a cooler console (that's great, btw) http://www.allfortrucks.com/script/UniversalParts.asp?toplevel=2&Category_ID=1144&category- - =travel_cooler_and_warmer_console
for $121 and pretend you're getting $72 off when you can buy it direct
http://www.vectormfg.com/catalog/shopping_cart.php?cPath=24&sort=2a
for $39.
If they were trying this in New Orleans they'd be arrested for price gouging.
And that's the problem with most of these outfits. They're just predatory in their pricing. Better to shop around for each item you need.
If we push the "comp" button the compass/temp display shows, and then once it is on, if we push the "temp" button it goes off and visa versa. So why the 2 buttons for the same thing and does the auto dimming feature work automatically or is there something we need to do to control the intensity of headlights it senses?
May sound like a dumb question but have never had an auto dimming mirror and know from experience salesman unfortunately don't know about all the options on vehicles.
thanks
You might try http://www.allfortrucks.com They have tan and gray for $90. This weekend there is 20% off plus free shipping over $75. I bought a tan one to go with my interior and it fits like a glove. Had it about a year now.
I do not own a hybrid, but own a 2005 Highlander with 3rd-row seat and towing prep package. I can not find the 4-pin connector you (and others) have mentioned. I seem to have very limited access to the rear interior of the vehicle. There are two removeable covers behind the taillights, and that is the only place I can even find any wiring. Where do I need to look, or what do I need to remove to find this connector?
Thanks - any help you can provide is much appreciated.
I purchased a new HL, V6/4AWD w/towing prep package, and planned on
buying a 3rd party hitch (for about $150usd). The 3rd party kits look real EZ
to install...the HL has pre-drilled holes and the custom hitches need only be bolted in...but I am not sure about the electrical....It seems like I need to attached
to the HL's rear tail lamp...but then what a pre-wire? I called Toyota, but the customer service person did not know, and the dealer was not clear.
I thought prewire meant that there would be a connector under the rear fender, but there is nothing there! If I do it myself, only have to purchase a touqe wrench, wire-kit attachment, and hitch for about 30 minutes work and $200 versus $600 at the dealer.
What does a pre-wire do (aside from the slighly larger generator and fan fuse)?
TY
:confuse:
pre-wire hidden anywhere to connect to. :confuse: :mad: :confuse:
Thanks!
