My car has a same problem, so i removed trunk light and keyless entry(didnt work anyway)

Now i'm waiting to check the voltage, but it hasnt changed for an hour, so that might be it.


Nice ride man!

 

oh thats nice! when searching for parasitic loads you must first have a fully charged battery, step two pull coresponding fusess (fusess that whould possibly be grounded out.

if you have a dvom you can pull each fuse (with the door trigger rigged closed so you can keep the door open) test each ciurcut if all crct is open (not drawing power) than you have a faulty charging system or a bad connection at the battery. i am toyota cert for electrical diagnostic if you dont find the prob get back to me and we will get it fixed

 

Yup, they did the body work on the car. I'm very satisfied with their work other than the fact that my battery keeps draining now, but I haven't really had time to work on or drive on the car anyways so it just sits quietly in the grage, heh.

 

Yup, the gap w/ the high beam bugs me... honestly I'm not super impressed with the fitment of the AC kit considering AC is supposed towards be geared to higher end cars. I would say it's very good, but not perfect. Platinum did a very good job on the paint and install but I think they had do a small amount of work on the pieces before painting. I've had this sitting for a while before there was a Shine kit, but I'd prob still buy the AC kit since it's not really that much more and comes with little AC authenticity plaques, haha. Shine makes good kits tho, if I were to buy a copy kit, it would be Shine.

 

I'm in South OC in Irvine/Mission Viejo. I honestly don't remember what the exact wheel specs are anymore, but they're like something like the fronts 19x9.5 +30something and rears are 19x11.5 i think +40ish or 11.5s wouldn't fit at all.

BTW, can anyone recommend a good shop in South OC? My friend, the search button, tells me that Dynamic in Midway City is good but they're kind of far from me. I think I will just take it to a shop to figure out the battery draining issue and might as well do the 90k service cause I just haven't had time to work on it myself.

 

The high beams bug me too but fortunately it is only noticable if you are trying to look for a flaw and if you are looking at it from above at close range.

Its just very interesting because I hear cases where the authentic kit isn't perfect while many other claim that it is close the production OEM urethane pieces. I guess the body shop that did the work on the latter group took the initiative to make it perfect and the owners assume that the kit just bolt on like that. 99% of us on here are not professional body techs and did not prep, fit, or paint our kits so it all behind the scenes work.

I am not knocking on the authentic kit since that is just the nature of fiberglass parts. Not a single part is exactly identical.

How were your fogs mounted by the way?

 

How, exactly, do you think it's the trunk light?

Is this one of those "Does the fridge light go off when I close the fridge type of things?"
