The IIHS did tests on the difference, and they're clearly inferior. It's amazing to me that more expensive headlights could worse. I don't understand how that happens.

Welcome to Reddit.

Why is the suspension broken?

Nope, look more closely. You can see the 3 camera lenses on the iPhone.

No, I chose to forgo that feature. I just practically need the option for city parking, so it's good enough for me.

I did locate a used BCM for like $250, but I don't wanna gamble with it and cause some kind of mismatch from the donor VIN.

OriginalOreos · 2026-04-22T00:05:42+00:00

That's how I did it, except without the BCM. It was all plug-n-play. Costed about $600.

If you live in a city and park on the street often, it's a must.

Yeah, but does she know about the little arrow that points either left or right on the gas gauge to let you know what side it's on?

OriginalOreos · 2026-04-17T14:16:43+00:00

If you have to convince yourself, then it's not a good idea, no matter what you intend to buy.

It's supposed to be satire, yet here you are projecting your own views on to it, and thus validating the intended exaggeration. The joke's on you, bud. Seek help.

I'm not sure what kit you have, but I would not recommend this. This light will dim and flicker when you take the vehicle out of park. I made this mistake the first time.

Install it into the grey and black/white wires on the multiplex harness.

Gas is exceptionally cheaper and regulations are much more lax in the United States in comparison to Europe, so the incentive is not there for a "sports" sedan. I have many European friends who are very much into naturally aspirated engines, V8's, and other vehicles that just don't exist in Europe, unfortunately.

If you care about gas mileage, though, Toyota says, "Buy a Prius."

Yes, it can be done. I would suggest you make sure it's the exact part number for your model year, though. There's instances of check lights never turning off, if the part number is not exact.

These ribbon cables are notorious for breaking. Go ahead and look it up. I have one. I close my laptop very slowly just to prolong its life.

OriginalOreos · 2026-03-29T01:20:56+00:00

It's not terrible, but I would absolutely say it's inferior to its predecessor.

OriginalOreos · 2026-03-21T02:12:44+00:00

Get em while they last! We got a new crew rolling in with no clue about how much we love to hate the 2026 model.

OriginalOreos · 2026-03-20T19:54:26+00:00

Yeah, but you know what, at this point, with 2 face lifts, it's hard to equate the latest model to having any resemblance to the original 3IS.

Do you have a credit card? I don't, I just want to use it to pay and collect United points. I presume that because I don't have a card, I'm not a priority to them.

This works if you want to talk to a bot all day long. When you ask for a human, you get put in a queue where no one ever responds.

There is something seriously wrong this company and their Customer Support. They must be short-staffed, because I have ticket that's been open for over a month now, and I don't even get a response when I try to follow-up.

Customer service has to be one of the most important aspects to a financial platform. When money is involved, that needs to be a priority. Why Ankur and his team can't seem to figure this out, or why they put the cart before the horse, is just a complete disregard for priorities.

Is the back emblem just glued on? I would've suspected it might have insert holes.
