Thanks all.

I put on 72 miles today. Man, that new car smell is killing me. It almost knocked me out.

I so need a tach. The shop said they should be getting it tomorrow. Hopefully I can get it in there soon.

It's great to see another member of the board acquiring a new Yaris. Congrats why?

Remember to remove the dealership decal on the rear hatch. Personally I cannot stand when they put decals advertising the dealership. If they are going to pay for a portion of the cost to display their name on your/my car I will gladly leave it on.
Plus once the decal hardens with age it becomes a bear to remove.
Just my 2cents

Usually I'd be right there with you, but I worked at that dealership and I like the people their very much.

All cars are pre-wired for a tach anyways, since most of the rest of the world has one standard.

They just have to find the specific wire and hook it up to it.

RedNova · 05-30-2006, 11:21 PM

The rims are FRD and yes they're 18's (18x7) with no rubbing! So stoked about that

Here is the tach I bought, I'm not getting the shift light.

anyone know the redline of the Yaris. I don't remember seeing it anywhere.

6500 if i remember correctly
same as scion XA and XB

eight_heads · 06-10-2006, 03:32 PM

well it looks like i may be getting a red 5spd instead of the silver one i had originally planned on.... should be in around the 14th and if i'm not happy with the color they have a silver one already on order for the next shipment

reo157 · 06-10-2006, 07:33 PM

It is for emergency towing. You remove the cover and install a towing eyelet so you can safely tow your car. The instructions are on page 242 of your Owner's Manual

eight_heads · 06-24-2006, 02:33 PM

here's my new car... 5spd, Red, Convenience Pkg.... i just added a new tach and will post pics of it soon in the diy tach thread

Yes you are right. I've just checked out my stock tach for you and the red line is at exactly 6,500. The red zone ranges from 6,500 to 8,000.
