Default GREAT Tutorial

My tC is 7 days old (2007), and I was cautious to play with any interior paneling - the Scion is already a little WAY too sensitive to scratches and dirt on its plastic. But this tutorial was great! In less than an hour I had my entire center console and radio and climate and back seats all off. Dont be afraid - just be careful- cover your tools with a cloth if you use a screwdriver to get in the nooks.

My dissection was b/c i plan to put in some interior lights and probably a powered subwoofer in the trunk. I was dissecting just for practice, lol - when i get my lights. By the way - best prices: ozonium.com - real cheap LEDs and cathodes. Instead of taking apart the door sills and back walls (which are tricky and i gave up on) - i think I can run the wires thru the console under about 4 inches of carpet to the back seats - under the seats and then right out the back. Any opinions on that?

You, sir, are awesome!

Thanks to this writeup I was able to install my entire XM setup on my own and saved myself some good money =)

Seriously, it was a lot easier than I thought it would be... The only thing that got me was the grocery hook on the rear side panel. The pin you need to push in is the BOTTOM one... Spent like 10 mins trying to get it off pushing on the top side haha!

this walkthrough is best for helping the tC lose weight, but more guting can be done! can't wait
