Guys

Has anyone successfully installed the Exim kit sold by Coastal Tech in the 2004 Prius? How did it go?

I wanted my local dealer to handle it for me, but they refused, citing no authorization from Toyota, yet. I am a little reluctant due to the complexities of the electronic system in the Prius.

Dave from Coastal Tech mentioned that the dealer should be willing to do it.

Should I be looking for a new dealer for the task? Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Here's my story:

You can check at another dealership in your area, they may have a different policy. Check at any custom car stereo install place, they should be familiar with taking apart cars. Pretty tough to screw anything up.

If you follow Dave's instructions you unhook the 12v battery which, in effect, eliminates the possibility that you'll short out anything or damage anything electronic.
