Hi,

I brought home today the new toyota corolla ascent sports, I'm trying to take out the badge but had no luck, I intend to replace this with the Auris badge..... from the Auris badge, i can tell that there are only 2 clips that i need to push to take out the badge but it is somewhat hard.....don't want to force it though as i might break those hooks....anyone with an idea to easily take it out please?

Thank you

Why not, its his car, each to their own. ^

Yeah, fair enough. Badge swapping is a phenom I've never understood. Seems quite similar to switching a holden badge for a chev badge which is universally ridiculed and lol'd at is all. But, quite right, each to their own.

Try taking out the grille, and getting through the back, there maybe something clipped there.

Thank you Jeff, i'll see if i can take the whole grill off, was initially looking at taking the badge off if possible to save me taking the whole grill off but it quite hard, yes there are only 2 clips that i need to loosen to get the badge out...thanks again, appreciate your response.

I still don't get it, but good on you for posting the photo so we can see it...

That's quite alright mate, some people don't really subscribe to such things as changing something that is not broken and plus the fact that it does not improve the car's performance in anyway but what i can say is that it is for me a matter of personal preference even if the change is only superficial....I'm happy looking at it and it will at least differentiate my car with the rest (at least by looking at the front :) )

Oh that badge, hmmm you mentioned Auris badge, which is on the rear, that badge is a Toyota NETZ badge which is on a heap of JDM Toyota's, yes I have it too :D

As for badge changes/swaps, the Japanese like to swap their Netz badge for the Toyota Logo

      Head Unit with Apple CarPlay

      Did you end up getting a head unit for the Rav4? I'm thinking of purchasing one from eBay for my 2015 Rav4.

      RZN169 Poor fuel economy and low/rough idle at cold start up

      Hi all, First time writter. Long term reader. I have a RZN169r 1999 Toyota Hilux 3rzfe Manual 4WD with 425,000KM. Which we have owned from 130,000KM. Since about the 400,000km mark (it had a new/used 138,000km engine only, installed at 385,000KMs) it has been using fuel and idiling rough. I'm getting 100kms less then usual. We would normally get 450-550kms per tank. Now getting 350km-400kms. Our long term mechanic of 20 years retired a few years ago and I have no one in my local area who knows these engines or who I trust. Any sugestions on who I can take my car to? I also have no faith in my local Toyota Dealer. I'm in Sydney NSW. Thank you in advance.

      Purchasing 2014 Prado GXL - Requesting Inputs

      Hello, Thanks for reading my post. We're in the middle of the process of buying 2014 Prado GXL from a private buyer in Brisbane. It has 107K km on the odometer, we arranged an independent inspection and only noticeable issue came out of the inspection is presence of rust. Inspector said general wear (ageing) and rust to the components consistent with the age and mileage. I've attached some of the images(related to rust) from the inspection, please review and let me know if I should be concerned about any future issues or as the inspector mentioned is the rust presence is expected for a 10-year old Prado. Appreciate your help in advance. Thanks, VM

      3rd Gen (XU50) Kluger new aftermarket radio install

      Hi there sorry for the late response, The reverse guidelines are on the factory camera itself (the guidelines are turned off on the Pioneer unit as it doubled up over the factory camera lines) and if I remember correctly they still retain the angle prediction. Everything else (excluding DAB) works***. But instead of using DAB I've downloaded RadioApp which has all of the DAB stations on it and is accessible by Android Auto (not sure on Apple CarPlay though) so no biggie. I also used an adapter to retain the original GPS antenna, works flawlessly. *** EDIT *** The info on the instrument cluster may or may not show, depending on what interface you end up using. In my case I've lost the audio and navigation info on the centre screen and fuel economy/vehicle customisation screens from the factory head unit but I'm not fussed by it as there are other ways to access them on a Kluger. I think it's all retained if you use iDatalink Maestro and a compatible head unit (it will be marked as such) but besides that and DAB all other functions are still operable.

      Removing low beam bulb 2014 Camry

      Thanks, Mate - i'll give it a go. As you say, $15 is better than replacing a damaged headlight (not to mention the aggravation).
