Since this query is duplicated further down the DIY list, is it possible to remove this one and leave the other?

I for one can tell when I'm using the high beams. That little light doesn't do anything for me but distract my vision. Besides, were not really talking about blocking the light out, and driving around with high beams on all the time. If someone comes at me with their high beams on, I just flash them. 9/10 this takes care of it.

People are so stressed out these days the less they're provoked the better.

Thanks to Scott I have successfully added the resister and have a lighter blue high beam indicator light. Still easy to see and much gentler on my tired old eyes. A very easy to do fix.

Old thread, I know, but I need to know how to get the first piece of dash trim off, (2010 3dr) without breaking something! I tried searching but didn't find anything of any use. Even the better half said last night, "You gotta do something about that BLUE LIGHT!" I have black tape on the lens since I had 130 miles on the car, but it is so bright it lights up the trim piece that needs to come off, that I see it in the windshield.
You guys are great, Thanks in advance! P.S. I loved the red indicator in the '71 Custom 500, even the green arrows were not "blinders". Up until 7 years ago I drove a '71 as a daily car, I like the mpgs of the yaris.

For some odd reason I knew it'd be you, Scott to reply first, I consider you an expert in the D.I.Y. Yaris World, Thank you....
I absolutely Love "Crashy" BTW.

Sorry to reopen, but is there a section where it can tell how to remove the speedomter's needle. Any info will be greatly appreciated.

The needle is just pressed onto the servo that drives it, so you carefully pull it off. I suggest making a small mark across the clear to grey area at the base of the needle, so you can align it correctly when you put it back on. When you do press it back on, hold the back of the servo assembly to avoid damaging the tiny plastic gears inside, while pressing the needle assembly back on.
