I learned that you need to be in school on the day they teach x-ray vision so that you can see through the blind spot that the C pillars make.

Glossary
Pillars (A, B and C)


For simplicity, the pillars of a car can be thought of the bits that support the roof, and by convention they're named A, B and C, starting from the front of the car. A pillars are therefore the ones that surround the windscreen, which is why they are also known as windscreen pillars.

B pillars come just behind the front doors, and are used as mounting points for the catches that hold the doors shut. C pillars surround the rear window at the back of a saloon car, or the tailgate on a hatchback or an estate.

There are, of course, a few exceptions. To improve access to the interior, some cars (such as the Mazda RX- do not have B pillars at all, and a car with a removable roof will probably have B and C pillars which extend only up to "shoulder" level rather than to the level of the roof.

Also the c pillars can be called D pillars on some boxier styled cars or vans

OK i just learned this today. I was riding in another tc at night an i never noticed that in the little cuby hole their is a light.

Mine does not have a light.... i reached in and found a hole but no bulb????? whats up with that.....

scion_jon

lmfao i learned that driving my tc makes me pose like fast and furious j/k

SCIONshane

haha, you can have mine. it gets kind of annoying having that thing down there all the time when you turn the lights on. probably gonna take mine out if i can figure out how to grab the bulb.

Reach around the right side (passenger side) of the center console and you can fell the light from there. Or, do it the hard way and take your shift housing and radio housing off. My opinion: Go the easy way....takes 5 minutes.

ok juuuust found this out after having my tC since may... but if you leave the color on 'mixer' (aka pink) the car will change colors by itself... i swear i thought my car was posessed tonight but it was a happy suprise when i figured it out

rlo

WTF???

cweckel2000

You can fit a flowmaster in there! I have one and the shop that put it on is about a 45 min. drive from you. Its in Irwindale and its called Vincent muffler. The guy put in on for $100 installed plus $20 for a chrome tip. He mounted it perfectly flush with the rear bumper, and it sounds mean! Very quite at idle but mean as hell when you step on it. Really deep with no raspy ricer sound. Power gain is not that noticeable until you get into the higher rev's, but the sound is awesome!

Here is the place's info.

Its pretty accessible from both the 10 and 210 freeways. Hope that helps.

How do you turn off the seat belt beeping thing?

rlo

wow still learning guys

tCizzler

Its in the tech section or use the search button... but i won't be an as$ about it

I'm sure that some of you are annoyed with the seatbelt BEEP. If so this is for you.

This will work for all Scion / Toyota.

It can be turned off.
1.) Power on (ignition on will do)
2.) Set trip/ODO to ODO (if its already on ODO you will have to cycle through)
3.) Power off
4.) Power on w/brake on
5.) (Within 6 seconds), press and hold the ODO for 10 seconds or more
6.) While STILL holding the ODO *after 10 seconds*, buckle BOTH seatbelts. Now release the ODO
7.) You will see in the trip display either a "b on" or "b off"
8.) Press the ODO to toggle between "b on" or b off" YOU WANT "b off"
9.) Now power off.

If battery is disconnected, you may lose your setting. Default is always "b on"
