It displays the current gear (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5), plus mode (E, Es or M).

If someone can tell me how to upload photos to this site, I'll be happy to provide more pictures of the displays.

Ya, that makes sense... so I wonder if it would be a direct swap, and if it is, I would love to get a hold of this cluster. Anyone know anything about swapping it out w/ the '07 US yaris hatch dash?

ChinoCharles · 10-13-2006, 03:36 AM

Until someone has the money to take a blind shot, it seems none of us are going to know much. Luckily one member is rolling with the Canadian-spec cluster, so we will know a little more after that. For now, we need a pic of the pins on the back of the UK cluster!

grimez · 10-14-2006, 02:59 AM

Well, I emailed Toyota, straight up asking if it was a straight swap across... i guess we will see if they ever get back to me.

Parbrook...

Ah

Thanks - I didn't see the paper clip when I tried earlier.

I'll take some photos tomorrow.

Hmm...are those pics from an actual official site somewhere??
Hmm..that cluster kinda looks like the one in the Prius...so maybe from an older version of the prius? The new one is completely different...

grimez · 10-15-2006, 02:33 AM

That's from the official Toyota.co.uk website, thats the cluster they use in the Yaris/Vitz in all other markets besides US, Canada, and Japan.

Paul

I doubt that the picture is from the Toyota UK website, as it shows a left-hand drive cluster, unless it was from a very early press release.
The current Yaris picture gallery shows the correct UK cluster.

Mine is shown below:

is there a differance between Imperial miles and U.S. miles?, I know there is a difference in fluids, but unsure on distances

grimez · 10-15-2006, 12:59 PM

There is no difference in the lengths, however, for every Imperial Gallon, there is 1.201 US gallons.

So for your MPG reading:

34Miles/IGallon=1Gallon/1.201IGallon

Or, just divide your MPG rating by 1.201, and you have the equivalent US MPG rating.

eTiMaGo · 10-15-2006, 01:19 PM

well, good thing you could keep a calculator on the flat space in front of the instruments!

grimez · 10-15-2006, 01:23 PM

The point is not to calculate exactly, just to know that your MPG will be a little bit less than what the display would read.

Black Yaris · 10-15-2006, 01:29 PM

Let lets try and set up a group buy on this UK cluster.... remember our cars (liftbacks) are a world car ans was ment to have interchangeable parts for different markets.... we may have to add an ambient air temp sensor to get outside temp... for the most part it should just go right in

If you are going to do this, why not go for the cluster from a left-hand drive country (mainland Europe). The price is likely to be lower as well as being optimised for viewing from the left seat instead of the right seat.

A word of caution - European Yaris (3-door and 5-door) are made in France.
I don't know if non-European versions are made in Japan, or elsewhere.
This may affect wiring & connectors.

Japan Vitz cluster below.
Is this like the North American layout, or different again?

Ditto. A RHD cluster will make the speedo reading out of the line of sight for a person in the left seat.

I've got a feeling you've got to do more wiring to get the trip computer working. From what I've seen behind the cluster, there are a few wireless plugs in the back which I presume you need to wire up to get them working.

My dash is the same as parbrook's except no trip computer, no A/T position selector and metric readouts. (really sorry for the poor pic, used a mobile phone).

Black Yaris · 10-15-2006, 01:30 PM

BTW does anyone have a pic of the JDM cluster?
