That doesn't sound right. It should only drop once the door is open, and return to closed when the door is shut. Do both doors do it?
the chassis is a blast. Sway bars and tires make a huge difference too.
It only does it on the driver door, I just got back from the dealer. Reported the window, loose passenger side marker, and got a cd I left in the Tundra.

I wish they were that good, they are some off brand junk. Replacements ordered last night, MY debit card is burning up!

Yup! Makes it fun to drive on the street, honestly. Despite being underpowered, you can get the car sideways very easily.
Good to know. I'll look up getting rid of the tube, I'm buying Morgan's SC & looking for an intake, header/exhaust.

Personally I think the UEL header sounds better. Catted seems like a weird idea, but it will be less raspy than catless.
Congrats though, you’re in for a lot of fun!
Thanks!

Hmm. Then my next guess would be that it's a shitty "ambient lighting module" for the footwell. And the button is to turn it off when you realize that having it look like a K-Mart sales aisle all the time isn't that cool anymore.
The device looks similar to the anti-theft that all GST (Gulf States Toyota) cars got. Not sure if GST is still doing those.
Both of my dad's 4Runners had a similar device under the dash on the driver's side. Don't think their Camry has one, though.
Ugh. I had a similar piece of crap that was slapped on my grey 4Runner. Every vehicle on that dealer's lot had that type of thing "for lot inventory control". Pissed me off because of the janky screwed on module at the kick panel like your blue beacon of justice. I never dug back in further to exorcise the brain module like that. Mainly because I was worried about how many shitty T-Taps I'd find.
So out of curiosity, how many wires in your harness were mangled by that beautiful piece of technology?

I didn't stay under there too long as I'm not svelt & the space is small & it was already 88 (96 now) I was hoping for remote start so I could just buy the fobs. I'll get my alarm guy to do the full recon when he does the remote start install.
I am debating if I'm going to do the stereo myself or let him.
Ordered these yesterday. I have the Hertz speakers from the Tundra (kept the amps/sub/ speakers) restored the factory junk, except the Pioneer, it's 2+ years old and I was in the mood for Alpine.
I have no idea how bad shipping would be but I still have the custom fiberglass box with a JL 8" sub that fits tightly into the corner of the trunk, if you're looking to add some bass to the party.

YES!
You have my number, I'm in a zoom meeting now but if you would like to call in 45 minutes we can work out everything, I'm taking the SC & wanted to ask about adding the hoses & Homelink mirror, hate the base mirror.
This is funny, seems thanks to this car having so many names depending on the database in question they don't recognise it.
I do monthly unlimited car wash at a place, I went to switch the Tundra off and had to use Scion FRS.

That's what I'm thinking... Financially, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to have two (or more) different systems. Commonality is King with Honda and Toyota. Only make something unique when it absolutely needs to be. Dollars to donuts the BRZ cluster works work too.
It'll likely fit and plug in just fine but you might need to flash or code the car for it to work properly. Might also run into year over year changes in control software that may cause issues. Either way, roll the dice and swap it out if it doesn't work.
Before I started posting Morgan gave me permission, while I was posting, he gave permission, after you brought it up he said he liked the conversation.
Seems you are the only one bothered by it.
No, not really bothered

I likely will. Need to do several other things first.

How is the screen controlled though? Via buttons on the steering wheel?
I have Techstream & an expensive dongle from the Tundra for the OrangeVirus tune it has.

Agreed.
First road trip, 67 miles each way mostly freeway netted me this:

Congrats on the car! I came real close to buying one of these on 3 seperate occasions. I think you made out pretty well.
