Hi there, My fiancee and I have recently bough a Jul 2007 Ice Blue Camry from Pickles Auctions (the colour matches her wedding dress.... of course....). We've just got back from five years in the UK and whilst currently based in Canberra, will be looking to move to Sydney asap once jobs are sorted (hopefully soon). The Camry was based out in Bathurst and has done 48k, so needs a bit of tiding up/maintaince, so I was wondering if any of you fellow forum members could help us out and point us in the right direction on a few things, which would be greatly appreciated, as follows:- 1) Parking Sensors. I have seen the self-install posting here (which is awesome), but our technical skills are average at best, so we would like someone to install reverse parking sensors. I have been quoted $650-700 by Toyota Phillip (Canberra) for standard Toyota parts ($350 for the sensors and $300-$350 for labour); and c. $450-$500 by a local installer ($160 for black sensors.... doesn't go well with Ice Blue; plus c. $300 for installation). I recall seeing a posting mentioning that they had received installation of Toyota sensors for $450 all up, so I was hoping that someone in Sydney (or Canberra) could point me in the right direction of where to get an install done at a more reasonable price. 2) Hub Caps. The left front Hub Cap is pretty banged up. Toyota are quoting $80 for a replacement, which is pretty exy I thought. Does anyone know where I can get a get an original for a cheaper price (all the local Wreckers in Canberra are saying... 'come back in 5 years'.....); 3) Similar to the hub caps, the tyre cover board in the boot is broken - any ideas for sourcing a replacement (as Toyota Phillip had no interest); 4) MP3 player connection. As the Camry’s (unlike the Corolla’s) do not come with a AUX input, we are looking to arrange an installation of a MP3 connection. Having done some research, we are looking at getting an xCarlink unit installed in Sydney for just over $200. I just wanted to check if anyone has had experience with this type of unit and whether they can confirm that the steering controls will work with the connection (supposedly they do). We asked around a few car audio places in Canberra and all they wanted to do was either replace the entire stereo systems with a new Toyota faceplate ($140) and a new Stereo (c. $250 - $270) plus c. $100 installation or a ‘quasi AUX input installed in the back for $200-$250’, but no steering controls, so we thought the xCarlink solution is probably the best. However if any of you have had other MP3 (iPods for us) solutions put in place, I would love to get your feedback on how well they work and how much the units and installation cost. 5) We had to get three new tires put on to get our Blue slip post purchase. They are cheapie Dunlops which we will replace in due course, but I thought I’d pop out a question as to a) what do you think are the best tires (we have 16” rims) and also any suggestions for tire pressure (we have them set at 210kps (?) I think at the moment), as there is normally only the two of us, plus occasionally luggage and groceries in the car? 6) Cleaning the engine. As the Camry spent most of its time in Bathurst, it was pretty dusty and dirty when we got it. We’ve cleaned out all of the dust and dirt on the inside (and most of the dog hairs…..mmmmm); and washed the outside. But when we got it serviced last week, they were not keen to clean all the dust and dirt in the engine bay (engine is pretty good) because of a desire to (understandably) avoid the engine and its electrics getting wet. Accordingly I was wondering if you had any suggestions how best to clean out the engine bay (noting that we are in Canberra and are not allowed to wash our cars due to water restrictions, except and professional car washes). Anyway, I think that is about enough for now (we are also in the process of getting the paint chips/stone marks repaired as well by a local guy here in Canberra, so will let you know how that goes), thanks for your time and assistance, any feedback you can provide on the above would be most appreciated. Take care and all the best T&C P.S. Photos to follow later ;-)
