1 more Q, is the front signal and fog lamp are linked together? can we change the fog lamp to white bulb without removing the whole thing or void warranty?

I have the same experience as well, from Genting back to home. Notice just when we hit the city the battery seems to drop 2 slots.... In the matter of fact on new year eve where i stuck at basement parking for 2 hours, i notice that the petrol engine have to kick in multiple times to get the battery charged.
I have forgot when the discharge of the hybrid battery will occurs during stationary position. What freaks me off was the running out of fuel indication is showing, and still stuck in basement while petrol engines keep kicks in every 3mins... -.-"
Anyone have any ideas how and what will cause the hybrid battery to discharge? I notice from my fren who is having a Prius with Ionizer added to his car, according to him; he left the car with 2 bars to full, and return like the next day; the battery was like 2 bars to empty. What he did was unplug the ionizer and the battery wont drain anymore. So be extra careful when installing stuff to your car... ^^

Q1:
12V battery starts ECU. ECU decides to start the engine via motor powered by the traction battery. So the 12V does not start the engine. Unlike normal cars, the 12 V starts the engine via an electronic starter. Our PC does not require an electronic starter, so less 1 wear-prone component.

normally i do have low battery during start, but that because i have used battery power to park my car on the evening. But if i travel more than 5km, the FC will increase well like up to 15km/l and will back to normal after ~10km with ~22km/l...

Sometime back I remember one of our bro here mention that he will check out the trd sportivo emblem from mudah which cost only RM18. Any good news yet??

I checked the socket number for the fog light bulb, it is H16. This is very special number(uncommon). When I asked bulbs seller, no one has such H16 stock. Hence, it is expensive i think. When Google, u can find such H16 for LED bulb which is shown in one of the video above. Not sure H16 has common socket as H11.....anyone know abt this?

Why do you want to change the fog light to led white light?? Actually according to an Uncle who is the shop owner selling all kind of led bulb at pasar road who advice me not to change it to white light. Coz when raining is not clear...yellow light is better at raining time driving. According to him is that white light will reflect at the rain and wouldn't able to see anything other then white rain reflection in front. That change my mind to replace the bulb to white light

I only bought 2 led bulbs from him for my PC interior compartment lighting(very cheap only cost me RM12 bucks...Uncle very nice guy).

compartment light also u DIY? easy onot?

please advice which kind of bulb is that

Rather than changing the original light, might as well install the DRL. Not for decor but for safety

Very easy DIY....just open the cover and remove one bulb. Than go to shop show them the bulb and ask for the led type. Normally they come in a set of 2 pcs. Very bright one

yeap.. looks interesting... any picture for us to reference... also the uncle shop.. i love to window shopping at jalan pasar... alots interesting item...

Now no picture la....work lo....later take picture for you guys lo......any shop at pasar sure got sell this bulb one....Uncle shop out side the plaza only....small shop sell all kind of led bulb one.

thanks, found this, can try this for first DIY...
