So are you getting the heated option?

Are you legally allowed to remove, blank out and paint the original side indicators positions to make it look factory?

hook up to ignition so when ignition is switched on mirrors fold out, so when ya turn ya baby off in the carpark, they fold in auto off :) no switch mumbo jumbo...

Would be good if you can close on demand.

Useful when going thru a narrow alley.

Looks like with this, you'll need to turn your car off so that the side mirror closes and then push the car thru the alley ....

I would say that with a simple little modification to the wiring, you can make it close on demand. Would be p** easy to do as well.

The module has a 3sec delay on folding/unfolding. if you put a switch probably a good idea to somehow remove that delay

okay..the ZRE model is for Altis (sedan corolla)... not Auris (hatchback corolla)

The mounting area is different...too bad

They are a JDM option if you want to go that path

On a different note the Ford Tarus had switchable folding mirrors (I did not own it belonged to a friend, honest)

lol have it to ignition just put a switch in it, when u go through your 'alley' lol flick the switch which so mirror thinks car is turned off.. ,

if they work i might get a pair, would you be leaving the indicator in the mirror?? might be abit weird to have the blinker on the side and mirror?

Yeh they still fit the facelift fine! The shape of the mirror is just prefacelift shape so it's a bit curvier and not so square on the inside edge of it. They come with plugs on them but u have to rewire I popped the plug outer off and put the outer off my original mirrors on and then had to swap the wires around in the plug, so if your looking at the plug on the mirror from the wire side with the two pins to the top and three pins to the botom the top left wire shoul be black, bottom left is the red wire and top right is the other wire, remove the two wires that are cut off completely, will post pics later today, I still have to hook up my folding and indicators. They are slower than the stock ones when u r adjusting them I have noticed, but look sweet in the black match my tinting really well might not even paint them white yet.......

      Toyota Corolla 2012 zre152 transmission issue

      Hi Toyota owners, I'm new to this forum registration. I need some advice or help as I have a shifting issue with my 2012 4 speed transmission. It doesn't do it all the time but the gears don't shift smoothly specially 3 to 4 gear it just bangs in when I'm cruising and it happens more often when hot. Got full transmission serviced with Toyota genuine parts no metal shavings in pan. Changed ATF 3 times. Full major service done, 100000 KLM on car. Full synthetic oil with 98 Ron fuel. Throttle body cleaned twice. Maf sensor cleaned. New spark plugs. No engine codes. Great loss of power sometimes specially on hot days. Please help as no mechanic knows what the issue is. Thanks in advance.

      Auto door locking on new 2024 C-HR?

      Yes mine is October 2023. It arrived late February Early March to the docks in Brisbane. I have a friend who has been told that hers will be in the next shipment but is only on the production line now. So future stock should be 2024 ! ?

      Auto door locking on new 2024 C-HR?

      Thanks Martin. I thought that may have been the case. However, it seems an anomaly with so much tech on board. My wife always looks for this feature after an ugly incident while stopped at a traffic light some years ago. As you said ...perhaps an OTA update? One other thing if you don't mind me asking. What is the build date on your vehicle? The C-HR's that appeared at my local dealer in the last fortnight all have an October or November 23 build date. Thanks, Peter

      Transmission U660e

      Not every Estima is fitted with the 2GR-FE and U660e drivetrain. This is where you have to take care that information on the internet is applicable to your specific vehicle.

      Auto door locking on new 2024 C-HR?

      Hi I was very lucky to receive one of the first new models last month. My Koba is amazing- as have all of my previous Toyotas. However in answer to your question it does not automatically lock the doors when you engage Drive or when you reach a preset speed. I am very disappointed that with all of the electronic devices and safety features and the approximately 20% increase in price over the last model that Toyota Australia has left a very important safety feature out of the vehicle. We see cars being carjacked almost nightly on the news. My knowledge of technology in this sector is limited but surely it is only an update of the operating systems to fix this. The new model is a beautiful car- your wife should still buy one.

      is it possible to import US model Sienna to Australia?

      I rent a 2023 model in US just few days ago it’s beauty and real good on fuel much nicer to drive compare to Honda Odyssey which I own one 2022 model make me wonder why Toyota AUS won’t bring the Sienna hybrid to Australia instead we get bulky ugly looking Granvia with diesel engine 🤔🤔!!

      How to delete bluetooth device?

      I have a Yaris and had a similar issue. I just submitted a similar query to GPT. The response was to go into settings, view paired devices, select the device to remove, and confirm the removal. It helped me; I couldn't find the answer on the internet, but I found it there.
