Reverse sensor

During my visit to CNAudio, I also take the opportunity to install a set of reverse sensor because of an parking incident by my wife the other day. After an explaination from the boss, I choose the more expensive model as he say it is much better and faster.

I don't really understand why and how but the price is not too much of a different between the cheaper model and this one, I just choose it. Plus the sensor have the same colour with my car then it will reduce the cost and time to paint match it.

I think most toyota have the reverse beeping sound as standard even without the reverse sensor. So by installing this, when I engage reverse I will hear 2 different beep as one from the toyota while the second sharper sound will come from the reverse sensor.

Personally, I feel the sensor is just a safety device, my other car have no reverse sensor and I have used to it for some time. Just remember to look at the side and rear windor more during reverse.

2nd row blower from Taiwan

A few months ago, I bought this item from a group buy in WishClubMalaysia and I been keeping it in the store because of lack of time to go to install it. However after a road trip during Hari Raya that my Isis need to carry 7 person including myself, I think its time to install it before the next road trip. Reasons ? During the afternoon the cold air at the front can't penetrate or reach the third row resulting a big complain and some comments.

This blower is not an air conditioner system, it is just a blower that function to blow air from one side to the other. Simply say it is a fan. It is made in Taiwan and I heard that the Toyota Wish at Taiwan do install it in their car. There are 2 speed for this blower, and the operation switch can be switch to I or II for the different fan speed and when you activate it, it will turned on the side led too.

A few days ago, I drop by CNAudio in Shah Alam to install this item, it is a highly recommened shop for its good workmanship. I do agree with it. The boss is friendly too.
Above is the photo of where it is fix in the car now. I had tested it and the 3 row passanger can really feel the air even on the low setting.

The second photo show when it is activated with the blue led glow at the side.

For those having a MPV same as me or wanted something like this for the comfort of the back passanger, it is a good upgrade for car in the hot and humid country same as Malaysia.

Toyota Isis U-Selection in town

Found an advert about this car in the internet and it is the highest spec for Toyota Isis, its a year 2005 model 2l. You can also spot that it had sonar sensor, rear air-conditioner, front camera and twin power door.
Its the best you can get from Toyota Isis but the price is still a bit too high. If it is price at around RM100k then it will be a good deal as the car was manufactured back in 2005 it will soon be a 10 year old car.
Anyway, for those looking to get one. Try to contact this seller and see the car for yourself.
