So I found these in my glove compartment

the little bag says:

IMPORTANT
TO PRE-DELIVERY INSPECTOR:
INSERT THESE RUBBER PLUGS INTO THE HOLES OF THE CENTER FLOOR SIDE MEMBER EXTENSIONS.

anyone got a clue where they go?

I remember a thread awhile back about these. Don't remember what the consensus was on where they went though.

I remember reading it too. Someone was finding water on the floor of their car and it was because the plug were not in.

Yeah they go in the bidy from below......

Best bet is to pull into the dealership and hand them to the service department and tell them to install......

Makes you wonder what other items of the PDI (Pre-delivery Inspection which the dealer is PAID to do from Toyota) were overlooked!

Probably everything except for the white film on the car.

tristan · 10-23-2008, 11:50 AM

thanks 1NZYaris1, that may have helped!

I looked under my car and i found this on either side

it looks like the plug would go in there perfect, but i'm not sure

Can someone else with a liftback look under their car and see if they have rubber plugs in them? they're in front of the rear wheels & take a pic of how they go in (if they do go in there)

I found these too in my glove box and was wondering about them....but I forgot about them. Guess I need to look under my 07 to see where I need to put them on my 08.

paraganek · 10-23-2008, 01:55 PM

Mine came installed.
Just went out and took a picture for you to use as a reference for self installing.

those go in the undercarriage ( frame ) on the left and right sides not far from the rocker panel and close to the rear tirewell . They're supposed to be installed by the dealership . Not a very difficult task . Just use piece of cardboard to lay on and not your best clothing . While you're under there , you may want to check all plugs for being loose or possibly missing . There must be at least 15 ( or more ) of those scattered about the undercarriage of the car in many shapes ( round , oval ) and sizes . They do become soft from heat and shrink from the cold which can make them loose . So , may want to give a checkup every 6 months or so . Can lead to water , mud , or critters to enter car .

You are smarter than the service advisor at Go Toyota in Colorado. When I brought mine in the clown didn't have a clue. It was the car runner that showed him where they went. It makes me really want to take my car there for service work.

so they DO go in those holes?

Sodium Duck · 10-23-2008, 05:52 PM

Why are there holes in my car to begin with...?

Is this where the welding bot went, or some kind of screw on the inside, or to hook the car up to an assembly line...?
