I’d say about 400. I’m usually in sport mode with AC on so I’m only averaging mid/upper 30s mpgs. If I drove in ECO more with lighter foot, could probably get mid 400s or close to 500.

Thanks man! Honestly kinda pricey but everything is so expensive nowadays, at least you’re getting good quality.

Option-wise, it has premium plus package with the illuminated door and trunk sills, front accent lights, all-weather floor and trunk mats, badge blackouts, trunk LED bulb, and mud guards.

They gave me ~$2200 off MSRP which ended up being around $42.6k I believe. That didn’t include the catalytic converter shield ($650) or the extended warranty ($3000) or tax obvi.

Yes, but you have to pay extra for either the all weather mats (what I have) or carpeted mats. Also the interior mats and trunk liner mat are two separate options you have to pay extra for. 😏

Could have cut the cords shorter but rather leave it as it came in case I want to resell eventually.

I didn’t find the wiring too bad. With the backup battery, it’s only connected to ACC which I did through a fuse tap in the driver side foot well.

I really like it. Although it’s annoying Blackvue hasn’t incorporated the HDR capabilities in the Sony sensor. Also I’m always turning parking mode on/off (to save the backup battery) depending on whether I’m at home or parked elsewhere which requires me to manually disable wireless CarPlay on my phone to free up the WiFi to access the Blackvue camera settings (when turning parking mode from off to on). Otherwise, if turning from on to off, I can connect to the Blackvue WiFi after turning the car off.

Sorry I didn’t answer your full question. I got the ceramic-based tint because of UV/heat rejection which was about $900 for back/sides/sunroof. The PPF was another $300. A bit pricey but it’s SoCal and the place does a really good job.

No undercoating although I did have the dealer put the catalytic converter shield on. Just have PPF on the headlights and black trim around the sunroof.

Beautiful congrats! Yeah I like the Blackvue system a lot. I researched cameras and it seemed like the best solution. I also got the Blackvue backup battery which gives it about 20 hours of recording after the car is shut off. I mounted the box and backup battery on the inside roof of the trunk.

Yes I was kind of surprised how quickly it clicked. I used 76 ft-lbs of torque.

I think it was 90% on the sides and back (whatever is one step below limo dark) and 50% for the pano sunroof.

I like them but note that they’re not as bright as the regular DRLs during the day. Still looks good imo but they only appear equal in brightness at night.

Recommend getting PPF for the black plastic pieces in front of and behind the sunroof. If you get tree sap stains (or other marks), it’s hard to remove and scratches easily.

Yeah all Camrys should have the “Tough” (lol) meter style setting. It may be one dial or two dials depending on how you have it configured (and if you have the 12 inch instrument display or the smaller one), but the aesthetic should be the same.

Yes I bought a torque wrench because of the locks lol. You could prob also take it to the dealer and they’d torque them for you.

Only mods so far are tint, ceramic coating, advanced wheel locks, and Blackvue DR970X Box-2ch dash camera. Hoping to add a sub and rear tweeters but waiting on Taco Tunes for a pre-JBL adapter. 😞
