    Shark Fin antenna

    This is where I purchased it. I have the same one on my PiP. https://shop.priuschat.com/product_info.php?cPath=18&products_id=30&osCsid=dnhmge6pfhmgc6i8d9mqaj4kk6 I will take pics later and post tomorrow.

    Shark Fin antenna

    As a follow up, I purchased a Blizzard Pearl shark fin from Prius chat and installed it last night. Fits and functions perfect and looks so much better.

    Auto-Up windows

    My prius has all windows on Auto-up and Auto-down functions. Is this just a function of the window switch, and if so, can those be changed out? I dislike having to roll up three windows by holding the switches up, not very easy with how the switches are. I would like them all to function like...

    Stickers arrived and took 7 weeks

    Stickers took about 10 days from mailing out the form to receiving the stickers. That was faster than my PiPa.

    Move USB Port

    I would like to move the USB port inside the center console. I don't like having my iPod cable exposed. Anyone tried this or done this and have any advice?

    Buying a Rav4 outside of CA

    From my research, dealers have to be an "Electric" dealer in CA to even sell the Rav 4 EV. That means they had to have special lifts installed in the garage and specially trained techs before they could sell the EV. Not everyone in CA can sell them. When I bought mine, they specifically told...

    No such thing as OEM leather that I am aware of. They only have softex trim with fabric inserts.

    Real World Range

    That is pretty amazing. You went 90 miles and had 43 remaining and 5,200 feet of elevation. Those are really nice numbers.

    Real World Range

    J-1772 is the plug that goes into the Rav 4. NEMA is an electrical outlet typically for 240v receptacles. If you have a 240v portable station, you would use a NEMA outlet to plug in your portable charge (its not really a charger as the charger is built into the Rav 4) Leaf can also use ChadMo...

    Extended charge all the time?

    I know this is in the manual but couldn't find anything here. I am guessing that using extended charge all the time will degrade the battery faster. Are you all just using it every now and then when you know you will need more charge? Or only using it with scheduled charging to the EV doesn't...

    Entunes - Phone SMS/MMS Feature not working

    I have both the EV and a Prius PiP. Using STOCK Samsung Galaxy S3 (android 4.1.2), MMS works great. This bluetooth stack is built by samsung. SMS will never work. The bluetooth stack is MAP which does not support SMS. I flashed to Cyanogenmod Android 4.2.2, which is built off Google source...

    Dealer training

    WHen I called and asked to speak to an EV specialist to ask questions about the car, the lady that got on the phone asked me if I wanted a 2 or 4 wheel drive EV.... I find most dealers don't know anything about what they are selling.

    Buying Clipper Creek CS-60 as a group

    I was going to pick up one of these until I talked to the folks at Clipper Creek. This was a project for a very special test car. The tech I talked to "highly discouraged" me from using this on the Rav 4 EV. He said something along the lines of "I wouldn't use it on mine if I had one" and he...

    Spare Tire Thread; all spare tire posts here

    I was thinking about getting a donut spare and putting it in the basement storage of the Rav 4 EV. The compartment under the back deck. Wonder if a donut from a totaled rav 4 would work. But, I don't think we have a jack either. Is that right? I don't see anything in the manual for a jack...

    Shark Fin antenna

    Ok, the attenna has to go. I had what I think is the same thing on my Prius and changed it out for a Shark fin and really liked the look and no difference in reception. I can't seem to find any shark fins for the 2012 Rav 4. Anyone have one of these yet? Is the antenna the same as the...

    Navigation Lock-out Disable

    I am also very interested. I put in an Overide on my Prius Plug in and would like the same thing for my Rav EV now.
