i work for them so they look at it as if there are no mods like if it was a sensor or something they would of replaced it... a perk of working for the dealer i guess

thats the thing they dont have to tell toyota your car was modified so chances are be cool with them and they will hook you up they get paid off of work at most if they replace something toyota will ask for the part back to make sure they are not claiming fake work and thats it unless the dealer tells toyota your car was modified they wont know and the dealer will get paid i have broken things on my car and had it replaced under warrenty i scratched the stereo door and they told toyota it was not working right and replaced it there is ways around everything trust me
