Good evening to everyone,
I just bought a second hand Yaris of 2006. I will upgrade the sound system soon so I replaced the battery with a new exide EP450 and a second battery will be installed soon. I am thinking to install a battery monitor/voltmeter and I don't want to modificate the car. So, does anyone know if there is any voltmeter that could fit in the empty spare spaces in front of the handbrake or it must be modificated?
Thank you.

I did this on mine http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56956
And added a row of 4 switches and a voltmeter (on a double-throw switch, the first one from the left) underneath the single DIN head unit that I replaced the stock double din one with.
Other wise, maybe you could find something on Amazon or DX.com that would fit the center console switch blanks, but I never had much luck when I was looking for what you described.

Thank you for your comment. I found a solution on this matter. Unfortunately I did modificate the plastic down from the handbrake. I will upload photos as soon as it will be ready.
