Got my baby yesterday! - Toyota Yaris Forums

Alysia · 02-26-2011, 09:14 AM

Picked up my darling bright blue boy yesterday! I bought an 07 Yaris Hatch after my 03 Oldsmobile Alero got written off. I am so looking forwards to seeing how many km I can get out of a tank. The first mod I really want to do is some cruise control and see if I can hook up a auxiliary cable to the back of my player so I can use my ipod. Does anyone know if the standard players have an aux output at the back? I'd post pictures but on the drive home yesterday he became very dirty :(

Thanks! I've had the thing for 4 days and got hit with something in my windshield and now I have a tiny (pin head sized) chip :( my luck with cars is terrible.

you can get window chip sealer at canadian tire for $10. i used it on our aveo last spring and it hasnt cracked or spiderwebbed all winter

+1, welcome to YW, glad to see another GTA member

as for the chip, the canadian tire chip filler works wonders. just take ur time and read and inderstand the instructions before u start.

Any pics?????????

Alysia · 03-03-2011, 09:35 AM

Soon, I was going to get him washed yesterday and the touchless one was closed so as soon as he gets clean I will snap some :)

Thanks for the tips! I was going to take it into speedy or apple to get it fixed but I'll give that a try.

yaris have very very very cheap paint, stay away from touch washes and never use the stupid brush at the coin op

^ rly? never noticed it on my moms camry, found it has very durable paint compared to our yarii

WeeYari · 03-04-2011, 08:41 AM

^ your moms Camry is an '01. I suspect that it was built prior to Toyota switching over to the softer, thiner, more eco-friendly crap they are spraying on them now.

yaris2010RS · 03-04-2011, 11:57 AM

that is true, that car was built like a tank and has proven it many times.

i cant believe on my yaris, from the winter carwashes there are little scratches EVERYWHERE! the tail lights even have scratches

Alysia · 03-04-2011, 12:33 PM

I only use touchless and/or wash it myself when the weather permits, but thanks for the heads up! I took pics today and I'll post them asap :D
