Default TIS

Does anyone think TIS (Technical Information System) from Toyota is worth the price?

TIS has everything:

repair manuals, installation manuals, wiring diagrams (SL has these btw), reference guides, etc.. etc..

worth the price? up to you what you need... however... i disagree on the fact that SL can't give you everything... cause what you can't find here available easily...

you have people here that could have the knowledge you seek.... *cough*... me.. *cough*..

TIS does have everything though- for Scion, Toyota and Lexus- if the public TIS is the same as the internal one, then you get access to Service bulletins, repair manuals, Electical wiring diagrams, new car features, campaign publications, Accessories installation and collision repair manuals, reference information such as maintenance schedules, owners manuals and there is also a section in which you put in a VIN# and see if there are any applicable Service campaigns...

I have the installation manual for the under dash lights from Scion but I need some clarity on one step. (Its the only one that needs to be done, everything else is wired up and working.)

the installation manuals on TIS will match the ones that come with the accessory.

if you need clarity on one step.. TIS won't help you there... you'll need someone to try and explain it themselves.

what step is confusing you?

Where to drill the holes for the bracket that holds the light bar in place. It says where but its not detailed or anything. And I know have 3 holes in the bottom of my dash because it didn't come out right. im thinking about just going to a dealer and have them do it.
