Rustproofing the Yaris Hatchback
I dug up this pic of the Yaris underbody. Since I'm in the process of doing some extensive rust repair on my newly acquired '07 RS 3-door, I figured I'd post this.
The hatchbacks are prone to corrosion in the rear subframe, rocker and dogleg area. There are 3 distinct and fully separated cavities that can collect water and rot out. Each area has an access plug. Using a 360 degree pattern rust proofing tip and a thin rustproofing compound, these areas can be protected. I did not draw the arrow at the front or the line at the rear axle. Those were on the pic when I found it.

I have a long flexible tube that Napa gave me when I bought fluid film from them.

I just ordered one of these. I guess it's ok, but doesn't spray FF well. That's fine as I plan to spray thin ATF in the panels. Or, I'll thin down some FF and try that. Since it doesn't come with a bottle, I'll buy some product with right sized bottle, then use it with ATF or similar. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Thanks for the image. I'll triple check next spring that I sprayed these areas on my sedan. My car now only sees summers being track only driven now, but due to its age I will still be coating it from the bottom every spring.
I did the doors and everything up top already and don't 0lan on redoing that portion.
