Prius (2004-09) :: How To Remove OEM Spark Plug
Continuing from this thread which I accidentally posted in the "main" forum.
I had trouble unscrewing the spark plug even though the advertised torque is only 13 ft-lb and the car is only 13K miles 1.5 year old.
I googled "spark plug stuck" and read some posts on line.
Lots of horror stories of broken spark plugs and stripped threads - big $ to repair.

I bought a 2004 Prius recently, and there are water outlines where the windshield wipers work. I looked up the tricks online, and tried white vinegar. No luck. I went to the next step and purchase very fine steel wool (#0000), but that doesn't do anything to it either.
View 5 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: Can't Remove Headliner To Replace Antenna?
I'm trying to lower the rear part of the headliner so I can replace a broken antenna base. I've read the detailed photo instructions posted on this site. I've been able to dislodge all of the parts covering the rear section of the headliner, including the dome light, but I can't get enough clearance unless I also remove the two rear grip assists. I'm flummoxed trying to remove the grip covers and sub-assembly. The official instructions are confusing, and the dealer tech could not explain it in a way I could understand. See attached diagrams. I can't figure out how to use the screwdriver to release the grip covers.

View 1 RepliesPrius C :: How To Remove A Smudge From Seat
I went on a trip this past weekend and I guess one of the corners of a box which I put on the passenger's seat had a sticky tab...and it left a smudge on my seat. I can't get it out.
When I try to rub it out, it just makes my finger feel sticky, and I get a friction burn.
I've tried a damp rough microfiber cloth (the kind you use on laptop screens) and I've even tried an upholstry cleaner, which seems to work just a little, but I feel like whatever it is just spreads out.
How do I remove these kinds of weird smudges? (I'm not really looking for a seat cover. I just want the smudge out, or as much "out" as possible without ruining the cloth.)
Prius V :: How To Remove The Center Console
I would like to buy a V to deliver mail. I would need to remove the center console so I can sit in the middle. I did this in my 05. Can it be done fairly easily and will the mode switch come out of the console for mounting elsewhere, like under the dash or seat?

View 8 RepliesCamry :: 2004 - How To Remove The Dash / Cluster
Looking for the steps of how to remove the dash/cluster in the 04 camry? see, i want to change the bulbs in the cluster, but i dont know how to remove it? and do you know the bulb size off the top of your head?
Second: What is the name of the bulb that screws in the a/c control board, using a flat head screwdriver, you unscrew this green bulb from the back of the pannel, there are two bulbs, i need to know what they are called so i can order some new ones.
The info on this site about led info on all the bulbs is in fact not complete because it dont list the bulb size of the 04 camry dash cluster and it dont list the bulb for the a/c vent control
Also, what the speakers are called in the door and rear of car? see the 6x9 that were in the deck seem to look shallow mount speakers and the ones in the door seem to be special too because of the small magnet on them, how do i order the correct speaker the first time?

Bought a prius off craigslist that didn't have a hybrid battery. Replaced it with a used reinvolt battery off ebay. Car starts right up now. However, there's a few things wrong with it. I can't get the key out of the ignition and the brakes are soft. Could these be related?
I have a fully charged and known good 12v battery in the car. And when I remove it, the key comes right out. If I bleed the brakes, do you think that will solve the problem?
