It seems to be very simple, just wires and connectors, i think i can buy the wires, cunnectors a plate and build my own grounding kit... will this work?

You can make your own. Its even simplier to put together then the bought ones. All you do is daisy chain each connection point (alot less wires). The hardest part of the whole process is putting the heat shrink on

Ofcourse you can. As vodkalush said, you can make it a lot more simplier.

If any of you are trying to be ultra-thrifty this website has a kit you can buy piece by piece for a pretty good price.

wow good eyes! Maybe the wire size is different, who knows

Either way it won't make a difference what gauge type the wire is.

^ make sure to let us know how yours turns out for you

ItsMyDaily · 10-23-2006, 07:12 PM

Thankx, and your welcome.

I still have one more update to make to the thread. That would be the install of the final wire from the tranny to the block, so......still a couple new photos to come. Should get that done sometime this coming week end.

ItsMyDaily · 10-23-2006, 08:23 PM

disregard my post prior to this one guys. I couldn't resist and had some free time, so I went ahead and connected the last ground wire. I updated the DYI with the final wire at the end. Now it's a complete install.

Sorry vodkalush, I know this doesn't make your yarisworld manuel easier.

Itsmydaily,I think you've been meaning to say DIY,not DYI,just thought I should mention that,not trying to make fun,just figured you should know.

I would add one more if the Yaris does not already have one...

Use an actual braided ground strap (not Audio cable) and ground the exhaust to the trans or chasis.
Many cars come with OEM exhaust ground straps
