I always use multiple sources when valuing new cars or used cars I want to buy or sell. Sources like Edmunds, NADA, Kelly Blue Book, Autotrader, Cars.com, eBay, and truecar.com can be useful. It's even good to check dealers web prices and local advertisements. These sources can give you a...

I don't know about Canada's regulations, or other countries, but I'm pretty sure the emissions requirements are country specific. Meaning, other countries can create petro emissions if their laws allow. Once the paint is cured, it's in stable solid form. I no longer think it's a problem with the US.

I know this won't help you, but my white 2014 Corolla's paint looks really good. Ah, but, you know what they say about white cars.;)

I understand how you feel. Try taking a picture of your paint with some kind of graphic reflected in it, like a grid, lettering, or black and white pattern. You'll have to get the focus right, A cellphone or cheap camera might not do. The industry does something similar to check gloss and DOI...

I have seen the pictures. But I really can't tell how bad the problem is from a picture. Also, the pictures look a little blurry or indistinct to me. It's hard to take a close picture of something black and glossy. I'm sure Toyota's paint experts, or whomever they get to decide, will have to...

FIY about OEM automotive paint. (Yeah, it's a long read.) Almost all factory applied body paint is base coat/clear coat. It is usually applied electrostatically by robots and cured by heat, although some catalyzing agents may be used. Because of government regulations water-based coatings are...

The Mustang is one car Ford got right in my opinion. They got it right back in 1964 1/2. Lost there way for awhile in the 70s, 80s and 90s. Now they're back with a hell of a car.

Right Tiger, I'm just talking about the beep horn, flash lights, keyless entry. It's really just a convenience. The retro turn-the-key-in-the-doorlock method works good enough for me. Never thought it was so difficult back in the 60's, 70's, or 80's. We are just too spoiled now.:)...

You can add keyless entry too. There is even a Toyota kit. But it will require removing panels and cutting into the wiring behind the side kick panel and under the steering wheel. Something I don't want to do.

Thank You for the greeting.

Your all welcome. Sites like this have helped me more times than I can remember.

For anyone interested, the Toyota OEM part number for the dark gray right-side steering wheel hole cover for cars with cruise control is 45186-12010-BO. That's what was on my part.

Adding Cruise control function the 2014 Toyota Corolla L. The Corolla L is already set up for cruise control. You just need to add the switch to the steering wheel. Disconnect the negative battery terminal. Many directions say at least 90 seconds but longer is better [10-20min.]. I had...

I traded our 2007 Civic LX Coupe auto for a 2014 Corolla L sedan auto. We had the Civic for 4 years and put about 60k miles on it. The '07 Civic was probably the best handing car I ever owned. I found it to be a little sluggish off the line compared to the older Civics I've had but more powerful...
