Garm's hood seal install - Toyota Yaris Forums

I installed mine the other day. Sorry no pics yet, but it really is a nice cheap mod. I didn't use any screws or what-not as the sticky tape seems to hold well enough if you clean the area first.

Yeah, it probably does not need the screws. It's just cheap and easy insurance that it will stay in place. Some factory front hood seals use the same arangement using the same type of screws.

They can't hurt! BTW, I LOVE the color of your Yaris. I wish it was available in '08 when I bought mine.

Yea, I got lucky (for the second time) and the local Toyota dealer had exactly the car I wanted. The frist time was with my Celica.

Both times, the hardest part was not letting the salesman know it was exactly want I wanted.
