Girlfriend just got a new xA, so I got a few questions.
1. How hard is it to flush the power steering and tranny fluids? And how would I go about it on the xA?
2. Her undercarriage is COMPLETLY gone, the car is in bad bad bad shape ( must of ran over every parking curb in the florida ) ... is there anyway to get a replacement one O_o?
3. How do you take out the bulb cover in the center compartment?
4. The inside of my hatch is completely plastic, it is all covered... her xA is completely body ... is this supposed to be this way?

1. Sorry.. Not sure..
2. Check your local junk yards... The xA wasn't the most popular Scion so they can be hard to come by..
3. If you are talking about the center compartment with the flip up door, you have to removed the whole assembly to get to the bulb. This involves removing some of the garnish on the dash, mainly the two silver strips covering the screw heads. They pop off with some prying from a flat head, but do be careful not to scratch anything.
4. No.. it should be all covered in the rear with black plastic and the cargo area should have a lid covering the spare tire. Once again..check your junk yards for spare pieces.

I'm guessing Troll, but if not:
1: Go pay to get it done, just easier that way
2a: These are unibody cars, the frame and body are one large piece, so there is no "under carriage"
2b: Florida, where?
2c: If it was gone, the car would be on the car and thus undriveable.
3: The easiest way in to remove the Radio and then the 4 screws that hold in the "Oven". The bulb is in the back top, remove the "condom" or replaced with 194-size LED bulb.
4a: These are just trim pieces, there is metal underneath.
4b: See 2a
Also, go to http://www.team-ist.com/ for more xA specific info and good luck, if you're not a troll.
