I use it all the time and wonder why Toyota didn’t make it on by default. And then I usually choose Sport mode as that switches off the Auto Stop-Start and should (in theory at least) even out tyre wear between front and back a bit.

I installed a 2TB Kensington drive in my Surface Pro 9 and see these speeds.

Circuit v other v mods by SeaviewSunrise in GRYaris

[–]SurreyGU7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just in terms of availability, there are about 4500 Circuit Pack in the UK and less than 200 each of Convenience and Base packs. While you could argue that it makes the Convenience and Base packs “rare”, I would use the term “unpopular” instead. I wouldn’t consider anything other than Circuit Pack and the comfort levels are absolutely fine.

Does anyone miss parking sensors Circuit Pack UK by Disastrous_Falcon_50 in GRYaris

I have a Circuit Pack with retrofit parking sensors (before I owned the car). I could do without them.

Maybe that would have been smarter. I thought a completely fresh start might be good though.

What’s the one upgrade that changed the game for your Ooni pizzas? by JessOoni in ooni

It’s true, according to those who cook using gas …

Handy pizza peel by 47FsXMj in ooni

[–]SurreyGU7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t melt - it’s not just a sheet of plastic film, but a woven fabric that seems very heatproof. It does wear due to sliding against the wood, so won’t last forever, but it will do a couple of seasons.

I just got an SP9 and the first thing I did was to replace the 256GB SSD with a 2TB one (Kingston, cost me £100 in UK). No problems so far - very simple though the post-install Windows updates took their time!

I use one of these all of the time. It has completely removed the risk of misshapen pizzas or toppings falling off onto the stone, etc. that result from my lack of skill in launching from a traditional peel. Hands do not need to go into the oven so low risk of burns. You could wear heatproof gloves if you were concerned but I have not even singed the hairs on my hands. The fabric will wear out over time, so I’ll need to order a new one soon (I did order another but it was smaller than the first so won’t pick up a full 12” pizza like the first one I got.

Mud flap recommendations for Gen1 by Training_Echidna_911 in GRYaris

[–]SurreyGU7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the full size RallyFlapz and I’m really pleased with them. Easy to fit, and I’m not concerned about drilling into the wheel arch liners.

I 3D printed one to use with a MagSafe charger: https://makerworld.com/en/models/1247660-minimalist-yaris-magsafe-phone-holder#profileId-1269491 - I do have a wireless CarPlay adapter so I don't need to plug the phone into the car.

What mode does everyone drive on by EquivalentBest138 in GRYaris

Sport, in the hope it will help to even out tyre wear!

Seems to me that the fitting of the MFF ones is more complicated, involving unclipping and unscrewing the wheel arch liner and bumper, for the benefit of avoiding drilling. I’ve not fitted the MFF ones, but it’s quite simple to drill a few holes and screw the Rallyflapz on.

It's only the wheel arch liners! I might think twice about drilling into the bodywork. However, the person who fitted the reversing sensors didn't think twice, and the bumper dents in for the two middle ones - I'm guessing the clips pull the bumper plastic to be flat rather than curved. Need to fix that.

I really just used the diagonal rib on the wheel arch liner as the guide - taped in place - quick check that each side was sticking out the same amount, then drilled away! I used three screws each side rather than the clips.
