2012 Dash Mat

[shrek]

Hi,

new owner here and have been looking for a dash mat to suit the RHD 2012 5dr YR Yaris. Went to my local parts store and they have none listed and the 2nd gen mat is wrong.

Has anyone found one in Australia yet?

So 130 views and no answer.

Is everyone with a RHD yaris driving with no mat? I'm getting some bad reflection sometimes.

Only a handful of people have one for the 2006-2011 model, so it's very unlikely that there's anyone that has one for a 2012 yet.

I asked in June ( Adelaide) . All offers only to old models. Last week phoned. One outlet offers -$60 for 2012 model -but I am, not so sure about it. Best solution is to wait some time -when new Yaris would be more popular.

I don't see many cars with dash mats these days at all.

Why then, do you drive a 2013 Yaris?

I think just about every other manufacturer is offering way better looking cars than the current Yaris... but I don't think anyone is offering "way better cars" in terms of Toyota quality, reliability, and cost of maintenance and repairs.

So why join the forum at all?

"I regret buying my Yaris everyday of my life, but I joined a Yaris enthusiast forum, because, uh..."

On the original topic, have you tried something as simple as a standard bath towel? Someone with basic sewing skills can whip up something that looks custom.

cracking noises come from the door arm rests. i joined the forum to findout solutions to these problem which i dont believe i would find.
the best part is that i bought it in January this year

i bought mine last august, and i haven't ran into any of the problems you mentioned with the exception of wind noise. but then again, i paid $14k for a brand new car that will last forever, so i'm not complaining.

So guess you will be selling it and leaving the forum then?????

I love my Yaris, and my daughter has just brought one too - great little car.

No problems with my 2012 LE ,Great little car . If you had bought a KIA bet you would really be upset. You are the only person complaining about there Yaris ,maybe the problem is you not the car.lol

.....and you're probably right about the Kia. Septembersrain (a member...now has a Yaris) definitely didn't like hers.

Not from this disgruntled owner

When I want a good cringe I go over to the Fiesta & Focus & Rio forums - Some scary stuff there, Halloween coming up & all

4,100 miles in 5 months & NO trouble whatsoever....except, this car keeps on getting DUSTY!

They make some nice quality huge, thick bath towels, in lots of different colors. Make a template (pattern in sewing..) of the dash top and go from there.

Shit, this one guy aali-01, a 5 post veteran of the YarisWorld forums, had some problems with the least expensive Toyota that's available!

Well, that's it folks, I'm selling the Yaris and the Mrs.'s Corolla. Hopefully we will get a decent trade in for them when we go over to the "Landcruiser dealership," since that is the best brand of car! Probably not, since Toyota makes crummy cars, no where near as nice as Landcruiser. Wish me luck!

Been nice chatting to everyone here!
