Page one of this thread tells you what all you get. But yeah, I feel I basically paid $2300 for green paint because I didn't want anything else it came with except the spoiler. It's an OK price for everything you get if you wanted it all though. You'll have a hard time finding an RS3 now.

The 4 will have to be great, but remember there will be a good charge for the extras that you may or may not want, just like the previous RSs (and each RS has gone up). I intended to wait for the 4 too but when I saw the 3 on the lot I had to have it.

You won't have any doubts when you see the right one! :D

How's the DVD player in the car? Is there "ghosting" in the images? I actually did a bit more research and I would be happy to have the RS3.0, a dealership near me has one. XD

It does have the green lighting in the car right?

This http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2330747 shows alot of the vehicle and I am very eager to get this car.

dvd player is fine, no ghosting at all. as for the interior lights, sorry, you gotta pony up a lil extra for them.

How could this not be standard with the RS3.0? How much extra does it cost at the dealership? Or if I were to install in myself... How much is that?

$260 at dealer. plenty of DIY options, from LED's to Cold Cathodes. You can even order the Stock LED's from an online site and diy. there is some minor drilling into your console with stock LED's for the switch and cup holder LED's, so if you aren't comfortable with that (like me for example), have someone else do it)

I read somewhere that you could buy the lights from Autozone for fairly cheap and install is that correct?

What are some recomended mods that won't break my bank?

search ebay for "green cold cathode" I bought two 12" dual sets for $12 including shipping. I like to tinker, so i will install them myself. it's pretty easy, i just need to find the right spot to power it and install the switch.

I have a quick question.

When I ordered my xB with the underdash and Cupholder Illumination... that's what I got... but I'm just wondering for the xB are they supposed to install ones for the rear also or not? The person who installed mine back at the dealer never done it before so it took twice as long than expected. I was just wondering if there were any anyways.

I had to get the rear ones seperate. But since it was 3rd time they screwed up the install on the front I got those for free. :D They listed as $40 for the parts. Don't know installation fees.


While we're talking about the interior LEDs.... What lights are supposed to be on when? It seems like a 4 way switch but I've only got 3 settings...

1. just the cupholders on
2. both under dash and cupholders on
3. Both off
4. Both off

Am I supposed to be able to have just the under dash on? Do I get to go back to the dealer for a fourth time?

bummer.

I have the front only ones, doesn't bother me. It lights up the interior enough as it is.

My friend just got the rear L.E.D's put in from the dealer. The tech said they were backordered. I'm gonna head to my dealer and see if I got screwed on my L.E.D's under the rear seats. speaking of lights, I have a problem with the electrical system, when I turn the ignition on my rear bumper lights go on when I dimm the dash lights. Also while they are dimmed about 1/4 and I put on the right blinker on the radio starts flashing with the signal lights. Sounds hosed right?

I pretty sure that the new LED lighting only consist of the front underdash LED and the cup holder illumination. The older kits consistent of the front and back LED. The cup holder illumination kit was separate. You can buy a kit for the rear separately. I found it on the scionpeopleparts.com.

Well, If you have $800-$1000 and a friendly dealership you can get one from them.

And that's not even bribe money, they are that expensive for legitimate owners/

Default Envy Green Radiator Grille

Anyone seen a source for the Envy Green Aero Tuned Speed Grille? Apparently, that is what Toyota calls the front grille, and they want $900 for it. Pretty exotic price for a piece of plastic.
