Why do some Yaris sedans have a tach? - Toyota Yaris Forums

The correct answer is with a MANUAL sedan you only get a tac if you purchase the power package. You also get a dimming dome light, because of this the dealer will state you can't install an OEM alarm, untrue.

I wanted a 5 speed sedan with power package and keyless entry but was told I could NOT have this because of the tac. The dimming dome light tricks the alarm into thinking a door is still open for about 7 seconds.

It's not the correct answer. I have a tach and dimmer but NO power package.

However, mine is an "S".
