Yeah I have the D2's and they have been nothing but GREAT! Springs are a little soft, but Iono what you were doing to make something like that happen.

agreed. Whats with the extra holes and 2 of the stock mounting points not having anything? If anything it looks like it was related to a bad install or someone throwing coilovers for a different model on there.

Actually looking at it more it looks like some ricer that slammed it to the ground so he had no travel and then abused it until the coilover tore on of the stock mounting points. As a solution they just drilled new holes in the upper strut tower and bolted it in. Im sure the coilover bending had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that it was not traveling at the same angle as the control arms.

Sorry, I have talked to Raceland and there refunding me my full refund. They don't fit. I confirmed it and they have edit there website. If there enough interest Raceland will consider developing coilovers for the Yaris. Hit them up on facebook, e-mail them directly or even call them with feedback.

Me and a bunch of guys got them to design coils for 7th gen Celica's... It took them a long time to consider the design though.
