Thanks!

I like the long straight intakes for better low end... but not the fact that the car needs to be disassembled just to service the air filter.

I have the TRD cai and the instructions are straight forward.
The air box I assume you mean where the cone filter is located between frame
Rail an wheel well.
1)The tubes are a snap to install
2)all you have to do Is jack the car up and turn the steering wheel left completely.
3)look inside the wheel well on the liner youll see buttons(center removal of button with flat head screw driver you do not have take apart snaps slide middle out and pull entire button out) you have two snaps to undo and one bolt philips no 2. (star) underneath that holds the lining of the wheelwell to the bottom of the bumper once that's of you can peel back liner And install the cone filter . Remember to disconnect negative battery terminal when you install. Sorry no pics but honestly it is a really simple install take your time and enjoy the experince .

Thanks for the info, Cal...

Is this your TRD intake?

These are listed on ebay.



Do you have any trouble with water? Where I live, we occasionally need to drive through flooded roads.

The intake image is not the one in the Yaris.
Trouble with to date no and I do not expect any water problems either.
Injen is an excellent brand I had it on a corolla great all around.
I chose TRD because that's what I wanted. pick what you like research and enjoy
Flooded roads. I agree with others short ram is best water higher than14" and your engine is drinking water. Cheers

Yes, unfortunately that has to be a consideration because we live in a flash flood area. If I do get anything it'll likely be a short one. A year ago my wife's car was almost floating.
