Hmmm that switch on CTScotts link sounds good but the pics are confusing. It will be interesting to see what he did on his car.

I used the Prius one (the second one pictured on the 1st page). The only difference between it and the one in the 1st picture is the writing/graphics on it.

Anyone knows if a similar stalk swap is possible on a European (UK) Yaris?

I can't say definitively, but I would think that the same cars' stalks that work for LHD Yaris would work for RHD ones.

Thanks CTScott, I'll keep an eye opened on eBay to see if a cheap one pops up!

Hi friends, please anyone knows if a similar stalk swap is possible on a Toyota Echo (2000)?

I built my own module which includes a potentiometer to allow for fully adjustable rear intermittent. I use timing, to replace the feedback signal on mine. I haven't had a chance to package it and install it on my car yet, but on the bench it works perfectly. I will probably mount the knob for adjusting the intermittent delay to the steering column, by the stalk.

You get around to mounting it in your Yaris? Very interested.

I still haven't yet. Every time I have the steering column open I forget to monkey with it. Bobolinko PM'd me last week to discuss a fairly simple relay/transistor circuit that he was going to experiment with.

I bet your steering wheels pops off the spoke fairly easy now...

Keep us posted! I feel mighty invigorated finally tinkering with my Yarii electronics!

Just installed a Prius stalk in my Scion xD, works like a charm and was as simple as your write up made it out to be. Got the entire stalk (wiper and light) on ebay for $75 shipped. Thank heaven there's peeps like you around to help make mods like this.

Just picked up mine on Ebay for $45 shipped. Waiting till it gets here. Thanks CT

I'd be screwed if he weren't here --as always, thanks CTScott

Yes it will work.

Will the headlight switch from a Prius also fit the Yaris? Found one from a 04-09 Prius

No. The Prius headlight switch has different connectors.
