Yesterday I ordered a TRD Sway BAR in the USA.

Hope that he quickly arrives here in Netherlands. (usually it takes around 3 weeks, customs here in Netherlands are very slow)
When mounted I shall post some pics.

Great mod...!

I installed mine a week after I got the car.

The installation is a breeze... It took me like 15 min. If you have the right tools don't even need to take off the wheels.

May I recommend you guys the NST Short shifter kit..!

An awesome mod for about $90

It takes you like 2 min. to have it installed and is something you really enjoy every time you are shifting.

:biggrin:

Nice looking car! :headbang:
I like the way you mounted that GPS, too. Any more pics of how the
mount sits in the cupholder? Do you take it out of the cup holder and
store it, when you leave the car? (I would want to do that in the USA,
as we have people who look in cars to steal stuff,:frown:) How did you
run the power up to the cup holder?

I don't have a GPS yet, but am thinking of getting one down the road.

That is a nice steering wheel, too.

Yes, it will fit perfectly! I installed mine 3 months ago.

It takes like 2 minutes to install and it feels amazing!

Send a PM to Caliyaris (Garm) he has them in stock and can ship to Europe for cheap!

Spreek je ook Nederlands?
Het bedrijf heet Frank Motors. Stuur hun een mail en vraag om de transportkosten. Mij koste dat 65 USD. Als je hem dan wilt stuurt hij een PayPal betalings link naar je e-mailadres. Je betaalt en hij stuurt hem op. (als je pech hebt moet je in Belgie ook nog invoerrechten betalen)

By the way, do you really feel the difference in handling with the strut bar and rear sway bar?

Cool... I told you so!:biggrin:

You probably right. The airbox is kind of in the way.
I have a CAI, so no airbox in the middle to remove!

Did you see the post about the Group buy for the new 10% underdrive pulley??

The group buy price will be $99 to be paid before Christmas and NST wil be shipping the pulley to us at the end of January.

Let me know if you are interested and I'll get you on the group buy list!

No, thanks,
I have done a lot last time on the Yaris. Now my wife have the turn to make a purchase.

Next year I go further with mods. The first then will be lowering the Yaris.
And thanks to you for the tip of the NST SSK

I think next picture says enough;

The base of the armrest go's in the cupholder (on the armrest is new cupholder) and is mounted with a kind of tension spring under the seat frame.
