Hardly a troll.

And coming from someone with 3 posts?

You bought a skull gear shift knob but are worried about visible wires looking lame?
+ this thread... Coming on to a modding forum and insulting everyone that mods = troll. Pretty much by definition. But me having 3 posts negates all that I suppose.

Thing is though, is that this isn't a modding forum. YarisWorld is a Yaris forum that talks about everything Yaris with other off topic discussions as well.

They're are specific sub-forums dedicated to mods, this particular sub-forum is a general Yaris discussion though.

Well said, I guess this needs to be reiterated. YarisWorld is for all Yaris owners, not just those that are heavily into modding. There are sub-forums for specific mods here, but I put the poll in this sub-forum because it is the most popular sub-forum and it covers all Yaris discussion... not focusing on just one area (which would have rendered a poll about all mods moot).

Thanks for the responses.

Actually, it occurred to me late last night that there *is* a mod I wouldn't mind having: Fog Lights.

It seems like every time I try to drive on I70 in western Kansas at night (or early morning) a huge, virtually impenetrable fog bank rolls in. So I'd vote for fog lights. Factory, if possible.

Makes sense. For me, though, fog lights are one of the things that mine came with when I bought it. As I was saying, getting the Power Package with all options (including fog lights, cruise control, etc.) and OEM alloy wheels is probably the main reason why I haven't already done any real mods.

WTF? Hold the bus, everybody.

This forum is for *everybody* who is interested in the Toyota Yaris LB and Sedan, regardless of whether they enjoy driving stock or modded vehicles.

This said, Steve, keep in mind, that the vast majority of peeps on this forum enjoy modding their cars and will take it as a personal insult if you don't agree with them.

Seriously, why mod a Yaris and not buy a more expensive car with all the bells and whistles instead? Why not?!! It's a great hobby, learning experience. You know how you take a computer apart and put it back together for fun, add parts, upgrades and so forth? Well, peeps on here get an econo car, and play with, add stuff to it. Same thing
