I realized that only the US has LHD Yaris/Sedan, and so only your clusters there are going to fit in our cars here in Manila. Unfortunately, I've also noticed that your clusters have a different plug underneath. (the other one is the same though--the pic showed by the OP has the plug positions interchanged, but are the same nonetheless)

Q: assuming the pigtail harness is included with something I purchase from one of your junkyards, and rewiring is done, will the lack of the other wires from Asian (Philippines/Thailand) Yaris Sedans still make the cluster work fully?

I never noticed that for the Sedans that you get the same connectors as the liftback. On that giant connector D76 on the US sedan there are many unused pins, so it is not like the US one has many other connections to it.

I believe that a US one with the correct connector and lengthening the wires to reach the opposite sides would work fine.

Great, thanks Scott, although the "lengthening of the wires" isn't necessary as we are LHD here too. Yup, the sedans and hatchbacks here have the same plugs here, and so do your hatchbacks there. (was actually surprised why, and your sedans don't)

Sorry OP for a bit of hijacking the thread.
