** IMPORTANT: For the safety of you, your passengers, civilians and other drivers, DO NOT skimp on brightness or cost for turn signals. They need to be visible and bright during the day. I paid $55 for the front and $50 for the rear. Red/Amber are legal. White is usually not allowed. Check with your state laws. **

Cathode Trunk Light Kit can fit on pretty much any car such as Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura, Nissan and many more. It’s simply PLUG & PLAY! No cutting of splicing factory wires. Only thinking on your part is how you want to mount them. I did all the hard part for you by purchasing the parts, modifying them and putting it all together. You can BUY them @ http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3144992/4.

The second generation Toyota ist, unveiled in Tokyo on the 30th of July and to be re-badged and released in the US in August under the Scion name, features elements designed to appeal to Generation Y buyers in their 20’s. Along with a complete exterior makeover for a stronger and more dynamic image, the interior has undergone a dramatic shift from the elegant black of the previous model to a more sporty combination of silver and black to appear to a younger market. In line with their “New Style, New Position” theme, even the key has undergone a complete redesign. The Optitron meters, originally designed for the Lexus range, provide greater visibility for drivers, with the speedometer and tachometer centered on concentric circles. The floating center console consists of a navigation system and a multi-information display. The navigation system is voice activated, with the premium model employing a dual view screen, so the passenger can watch tv while the driver is using the navigation system. The interior light uses an LED with two colours, blue and white with variable brightness. Toyota completed a detailed review of the materials, processing methods and adhesives used for interior parts which resulted in a reduction in the amount of VOCs (volatile organic compounds) used, thereby also reducing the unpleasant odors emitted from such compounds and achieving the Japanese automobile industry’s voluntary goals.

Toyota Plug-In Prius (PHEV) Press Release

Posted by admin on May-13-2009

Among “green” car owners, the OEM plug-in hybrid, or “PHEV”, is seen as the next evolutionary step in auto efficiency.

PHEV’s plug into a source of electricity to recharge their batteries, then travel on pure electric power for a distance and get fuel efficiency ratings in the 100+ MPG range afterwards, thus reducing gasoline consumption, and significantly reducing pollution as well (even when the electricity comes from coal plants).

Toyota released this video shortly after getting permission from the Japanese government to test drive their prototype PHEV on public roads. So far, no other company is this far along in development of a PHEV, though Chevy is trying to develop their “Volt” concept, and Ford wants an electric vehicle by 2010 as well.

Visit NJRenewableEnergy.com A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is a hybrid vehicle with batteries that can be recharged by connecting a plug to an electric power source.
