i got the base trim with the power package, convenience package. I wanted the S in automatic but it wasnt even in Texas with no idea as to when one might come in. But i wanted red and love it. I am getting the windows tinted at the dealer tomorrow. I am also going to add the keyless entry/alarm and xm. I am thinking of putting one of the small xm radio receivers just beneath the temp control. any thoughts on that? I may get a spoiler for it one day.

yeah, i know what you mean. i bought my flint mica S early on too. i wanted the power package, but there were none at the time, and wouldn't have been for at least a couple of months from the time i bought mine. so your Yaris came with ABS? i had Toyota install a non-Toyota power window/door lock package in my Yaris. it already came with the convenience package.

make sure that the dealer does not install dyed film for tint. it will turn purple down the road. i'll be getting my Yaris tinted at the same place that did some tinting for a few music videos. they'll be using the other type of tint, the one with metal in it.

i too, would like to get a spoiler, but being a college student, i'm broke...

as for the XM tuner, it would be up to your personal taste. for me, i would not like the tuner to be under the temp controls. my suggestion is to take a pic of your interior and the tuner itself, and then use photoshop to place the tuner in certain spots to see where it will look best.

That is an excellent idea about the xm radio and taking the pics! I think i will do that.

some dealers may be able to get you the kit, or you can search some sites online, which may be cheaper.
