Here's my 2010

I've had this for 12 days now & completed 2 mods: installing an adjustable intermittent wiper and debadging the rear. Bought it 6 months old w 4,700 miles!! Has almost every option! $12k. It fits in my drive w 1.5" to spare & I like it! My other vehicle is the Xplorer Class B Motorhome which I've had for 10 years & will never let it go.

Great color!

Is this the Matrix/Vibe switch? And the intermittent function for the rear wiper does not work, right? Been thinking about this little upgrade.

switch

It is the switch from an 04 Prius. I followed CTScott's DIY & had some PM's from him as needed. Took under 1 hour & was easy. I could do it again in 20 minutes. I paid $50 + $12 shipping for the switch from the same place in WI he used. One on ebay just went for less. My local dealer wanted $148 + $9 tax for the part.

The intermittent for the rear does not work, just the constant on or off. But now instead of only 1 fixed delay front wiper speed, I can vary it from 2.8 seconds to 7.6 seconds between wipes. SWEET!

Thnank you CTScott.

I think the Matrix uses the same switch. I did the same mod with my base Tacoma, using a variable int. switch from a Tundra...10 minute job. No rear wiper to worry about though.

Rear lights are different between those model years. Also, front grill is different. Other than that the 2010 has mud flaps, bumper protector, and cool tint that I really like!...
