No. TRD still using 15" rim with same 185/60/R15.

Eventually although the design looks nicer but because of the darker color to me it looks smaller than other specs lol.

Design wise I prefer: TRD rim > J/E rim > G rim

TRD rim with 16" 195/50/R16 size will definitely looks perfect.

If you read the manual carefully, you should know that is for rear fog lamp instead of front fog lamp.

Few things to remember:
1. It can only able to be turned on when you have your headlamp on.
2. DO NOT TURN ON rear fog lamp unless the rain is very heavy.
3. You can install fog lamp to follow your position light or headlight ON/OFF or you need to change the switch handle.

No need cut wire if you have the fuse tap.

No wiring available.

If you want to do, google fuse tap and use it for fog lamp installation.

The downside of this installation is you cannot have any switch to turn the fog lamp on/off but either follow small light/ headlamps.

Good side is, no wiring cut needed. If need warranty claim, just unplug the fuse tap, plug back original fuse to the fuse slot then your fog lamp will be disconnected.

That's it.

Or use it to warn the driver behind if something happened in front which not visible to the rear. Of course on for awhile then please close it unless raining heavily

Honestly speaking, the light won't as what others complaining which high power until can make them blind permanently.

But, turning them ON during clear night will still somehow irritate the drivers behind you, also tend to let the drivers behind losing concentration as the rear fog lights output are the same with brake light.

There are always 2 sides of story.

Why people tailgate you?

First side of the story:
1. Some one driving recklessly regardless they are in fast lane / middle lane and simply flash high beam / tailgate etc.
2. Some one still tailgate you even though you already in middle / left lane.

This type of drivers are simply axxhole, just avoid to mess with them. Is not about fight with them, is about your own safety on the road.


Second side of the story:
1. You are driving slow in fast lane.
2. Driver behind already turned on right signal / high beam / horn telling you they want to pass, but you still ignore them and continue to drive in fast lane.

If you met either scenario above, you should feel sorry to the others & should not do that anymore instead of switch on rear fog lamp to irritate them.

Example: Driving 70kmh in the fast lane on highway. I will be like: What the hell are you doing there? Please drive in middle lane or left lane.



I'm real frustrated to all those bastard blocking the fast lane. Please be considerate to the others. Thank you very much.

No. There are lots of differences.

J spec as based model.

E spec compared to J spec:
With RM6k++, you gained fog lamps, turn signal with folding side mirrors, 60:40 back seat.

G spec compared to E spec:
With another RM6k++, you gained leather seat, leather steering, multimedia steering control, rear disc brake, projector headlamp, different rim design, MID display, aluminium like plastic material on door card, front chrome grill, acoustic windshield.

TRD spec compared to G spec:
Another RM6k++, you gained TRD leather seat design, TRD bodykit, TRD stickers, TRD rims, darker projector headlamp, darker front chrome grill, red meter instead of blue.


Safety equipment wise, no difference.

Actually you should aware that every car company are doing the same. Whichever come first, which they already mentioned very clearly in T&C.

Depend on the price you pay. Because wrapping just outside doesn't required to remove a lot of interior panel etc. A full wrapping will required remove the door cards, rubber, sill plate etc to achieve the best look condition.

I would suggest a 16" (My personal opinion) so that it looks nice and not so heavy. I researching few brands but I'm not really deep into it, but my friend told me those brand their quality not that bad. Lenso, Advanti, Enkei etc.

About your car, you might want to consider installing a fog lamp/DRL for the front? Together with the rims I'm sure it will looks much better.

Personally I'm not so into the bodykit for 3rd gen Vios. I spent my money for coating, kenwood player etc

Yup. Fog lamp and rim should be first few items before came to bodykit

I recently get myself Kenwood DDX716WBT. Quality is quite good but I lack of the WIFI dongle for my wireless mirrorlink feature. Will add on in future haha.

I didn't change speaker yet, not in my priority items. My next changes might UR bar or Rims depend on budget.

Both GX & TRD rims looks nice. Not sure if it's 15' or 16".

Saw an EEV logo there...wondering if this will benefit from the EEV price reduction?

Steering wheel of G spec now without leather...HOLY

With existing spec, I find it hard to justify E spec over J spec just for retractable side mirror + fog lamp + 60:40 foldable seat with arm rest for 6k plus.

With the new spec, additional touch screen + 3 items above, then E spec can still be considerable if the price diff maintain at 6k or lower.

The LED DRL, indeed is UMW self added. Such an ugly DRL, any aftermarket DRL suits much better than this.

EcoTint. If they didn't change.

Haven't launch already talk about discount...I don't think T want to spoil the market like what VW did...

I went to showroom to have a look on GX yesterday. the bodykit very nice, personally favor Gx over TRD

But why they design the damn VSC button at the storage area...

No. The DRL is a carry forward item from pre-facelift car.

Basically, to recognize new vios from exterior:

J & E almost impossible except number plate.
G has a new rim design same with GX but not 2 tones color.
GX - new bodykit
TRD - new bodykit

Why get G spec to install? Price different between G & GX is just 3k, you purchase the bodykit also cost you almost that amount of money, 2.3k. That's why they don't offer bodykit for G spec.

I'm worry that with the price, you can get higher quality product at outside trustable shop...unless you wait longer until you can get a second hand unit...

Doesn't look like it's a facelifted version. But the version before facelift. However, inside the panel got fusebox. Might caused by the fuse or something...
