Get GX spec instead,  with nicer 4x sport RIM and OEM aerokit.

Of course, extra different of rm 3k price tag if you can afford. Nowadays, many peoples car (called as "2nd wife") already civilized and want to look great with rim(shoes) and aerokit(dress skirting) when ladies go out(on the road). We were in year 2017, not like zaman 1995 - 2015 anymore. People 's demands, expectations and needs have been upgraded. In term of safety features, both G and GX spec quite comparable.
[attachmentid=8888610]
I would recommend to UMW Toyota to consolidate J and E  specs into a single spec,  consolidate G and GX spec into another single spec.Standard nice RIM and Aerokit are compulsory for all variants/spec. For ALL front and rear ventilated DISC braking system, extra airbags and complex advance safety features, only top TRD spec have it, while consolidate G/GX spec CAN have it as optional.People look at safety features, reliability + durable, proven good track experience brand, comfortable, NVH ..etc  when buying a car. Take a look at Altis car, only 3 specs, 7SRS Airbags, GOA body structure..etc. If you can afford, perhaps getting C or higher car segment. Alright??

My original heart is Altis, but Veto overruled. Choose G spec, as I like acoustic glass and rear disc brake, but my family made noise on the extra 6k cost. Settle on E spec.. But one day, drove my "2nd wife" to big cities, many Vios there civilized with superb nice body skirting and RIM on the road.

Here goes the changes I made :- but,i don't tell yr family abt it.. Emmh...as they don't really notice/care what car changes, but only extra COST..

1. Choose GX body skirting, as many TRD on the road and GX is new variant spec. 1xxx, GX extra 100 compared to TRD.
2. Cut exhaust output pipe, added exhaust head chrome. 100
3. Order normal front chrome grill bar, darker front chrome not suitable / nice for 040 super white II color. SC 4xx, Accs shop 120 - 180 . Genuine chrome grill bar from SC looks awesome.
4. Search many tyre shops, finally get forummer help to get GX Rim from Service Centre(SC). Cost 1541
5. Change rear number plate bulbs and front small lamp bulbs t10 from yellow to white.do not get Made In Ch bulbs.. Get Philips / Osram .. Cost 85 - 160 / pair.
6. Order G and X emblem from SC, at 44 and 77 respectively.

Step by step.. do it gradually if you can afford it.

Will recommend GX if anyone want to buy Vios..

Hi Guys,

Newbie here, driving a 06 Vios NCP42. I would like to know the following...

1) What is the spec of the alternator?
2) What is the max size battery I can install?
3) Does the car come with fog light cable? I saw the fog light switch on my dashboard and it lighted up when i press it but can't seem to locate the cable near the fog light area.

Thanks guys... appreciate it...

Guys, I need advise.
My rear spoiler 3rd brake light LED doesn't turn ON when braking.
How can I repair this? Is there a fuse I can change?
Much appreciated for any help.

Pergi kedai spare part kereta dan cakap nak beli bulb T15.
Ini contoh bulb : http://images.esellerpro.com/2133/I/367/1/...ulb%20clear.JPG

Cara nak tukar, buka bonet belakang. Tunduk kepala dibahagaian lokasi lampu brake ke-3 tu. Ade connector cabut connector wire dulu. Kemudian pusing socket ikut arah lawan jam. Tarik socket kluar bersama2 dgn bulb tadi. Kemudian tanggal kan bulb tersebut dari socket dengan menarik bulb dari socket. Mudah sahaja.

Note: cara ini hanya untuk vios 3rd gen. Vios model lain xpasti. Untuk LED pastikan polarity (+)(-) betul. Jika incandescent tiada polarity. Tq
