No room for it? It's the exact same except for one has holes cut out with switches in them and the non-power doesn't have any cut-outs. You could just buy the OEM panel when you do your install.

Hm...interesting. I swear the '09 Sedan is different from the '07. I was looking at the interior of JumpmanYaris's '07 Sedan. It is pretty different from my '09.

Thats a shame for those who would want to install them. My (unasked for) advice is dont get those things because they only break and cost $$$$ to fix. It recently came to my attention if you have remote locks and your cars battery goes dead YOU CANT GET IN THE CAR! WOW!

Why wouldn't you be able to get into the car? You wouldn't leave your ign. key in the car, would you? I have had plenty of batteries go dead in remotes but I have always been able to get into the car.

I was thinking about a friend at work with a PowerStroke Diesel who wams the truck up before leaving at midnight. Key in the ignition, engine running doors locked. Keypad on the doors to open and get in. Keypad fails, doors wont open, motor cant be shut off!
Yeah if you had the key (outside) you could get in!

Those run off the car battery right and not a separate battery? So if the keypad is not working because of battery loss, then your car is not going to start even if you had the door opened.

Not true at all.

I have automatic locks on my Yaris Hatch. I have my battery die back in 07. Left an interior light on at the car park before going away on a one week vacation.

I was, of course, able to get into my Yaris no problem by manually unlocking the doors with my key.

How could it possibly be the case that you couldnt manually lock or unlock you car? Crazy thought.
