Exhaust tips - Toyota Yaris Forums

eht13 · 04-01-2010, 03:20 PM

I found the two different exhaust tips shown below on a Toyota dealer's site... one in the "accessories catalog" that all dealers seem to have in common, and the other in a "parts store". They look a little different, but they seem to essentially be the same thing, but for a very different price. Does anyone know about either of these? And does anyone know how the quality and installation of these would compare to the exhaust tips available at Wal-mart, for example? I've seen people mention those tips on here. Thanks.

The top one looks like what came on my Onyx, the bottom one looks like it goes on a larger dia. pipe plus it also looks like it's a weld on type. Here's a cheaper place to buy the top tip, http://www.trdsparks.com/displaypart...&parts_id=2137 .

walmart...8 bux.

or autozone for 10. they all screw on, or you can cut off the screw parts and have it welded, but the weld area will corrode and rust.

^^ This.

The $12 one at Walmart not only looks good, but actually improves the exhaust tone a little. Search the forum, there was a thread on it to include a video...

Thanks everyone. Those two I showed should be the same diameter; they are both noted as being for the Yaris specifically. As far as the screw on type, either these or the Wal-mart ones... they just have two screws, at a 90 degree angle to each other, that you screw in against the existing pipe to create enough tension that it is held securely? And they are secure enough that way? One I saw would have the tips of the actual screws touching the pipe, while the other had the screws pushing a flat head (a rectangular moving piece) against the pipe.

the one i picked up from autozone had 2 screws on it with teeth, but i got out to my car and realized that it wouldnt fit with the screws, so i took the screws out and it fit snugly onto the pipe. Once i got home, i used a rubber mallet to put it on securely and it hasnt come moved at all after a month

Thanks... that looks like a sturdier design. The ones I saw at Wal-mart had the other design I described, with two screws going in against the existing pipe, with either the screw tips or a rectangular head pushed by the screws holding against it. I guess your design is what they are referring to with the "single bolt-on" description.

Also, I noticed that the exhaust pipe on the sedan (maybe hatchback too) has the last portion of the pipe at a downward angle, not parallel with the ground or the car. So these tips are at that angle too, or do they somehow adjust for it? In the pictures I've seen they look more flush and parallel than that.

my tip is what comes on the Onyx edtion, I'll remove it to see if the exhaust pipe has been cut.

Thanks for checking and showing the pics. That is what the end of mine looks like too... hard to tell there if the slight downward angle is the same or not though.

the Walmart exhaust tips will do your Yaris well. I got mine for $4 on clearance. It screws on very easily and it won't break your wallet. The screws need to be tight to secure it on.

Get the Walmart one, it will give you the same result as the $50 tip.

^ Thanks.

Interesting... one of the ones that says it is stainless steel?

The one I got from PepBoys (same brand as the WalMart one, but square tip instead of circle or oval) started rusting too.
