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?

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!

I hope this makes sense...

You are correct.

The RPM is shown in the form of green blocks that fit between the upper and lower lines marked as ?
It looks a bit like an audio level display, but on its side, and with a curved baseline.

On the UK Yaris, by pushing the button near the clock, the display below the clock can be set to show temperature, current fuel consumption, average fuel consumption, distance until fuel tank reaches reserve, or average speed.

Any chance we could get you to take a pic of the pinouts for your cluster Parbrook??? If they are the same, im going to do my best to be the pioneer in trying to swap out the clusters.

I wouldn't know where to look.
Let me know where the connector is located and I'll have a go, but I'm not going to dismantle anything on my new baby.

Sounds to me like a workshop manual would be the best bet.
I wonder if Haynes have produced one for the current model yet?
I'll see if I can find out.

Nope, there's a UK Haynes manual for the earlier model, but not the current model.

check out this thread, it's got a lot of the info about the other guages and how they figured out if they matched up or not :)

grimez · 10-14-2006, 01:59 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.

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.

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, 01:33 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.

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:

Ah, I stand corrected.... then this is going to be from the Toyota websites of one of any of the European countries besides the UK, or one of the South American countries, or pretty much any other country besides former UK colonies. in asia, oceana, and southern africa.

And I love that gauge with the trip computer... I want it, too bad it's imperial miles... hmm, does the outside temperature have the option to display in Fahrenheit?

All speed-related displays can be switched between Km and Miles, but fuel consumption for miles is for Imperial gallons.

I don't believe that there is a Fahrenheit option, but I'll take a look in the manual.

Black Yaris · 10-15-2006, 11:48 AM

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