can you let me know how you find the tracker to as i could do with one too thanks

I received the tracker and installed a Sim card.

The tracker holds battery well (mine was 5000mAh), I have only charged it once and it is still at 90%, and if I need to charge it I use my powerbank. 

• The tracker has a magnet so it is easy to hide it in the car, and it will stay put. 
• It is quite accurate, I parked it and it remains on the spot when I check the map
• It has vibration alarm (might take some time to figure out but works well) if car shakes (like closing a door or someone sits in it) the tracker sends a text to my phone.
• It has geo fence, which means that if it goes out from 100m radius from where it was parked, it will send a text to warn me.
• If you call the unit it will wake it up and send location data by text
• There is an app for it where you can change settings and such.
• Live tracking is good, also you can track all your previous journeys as well.

That's all I can think of now, Please ask if you have any further questions regarding it.

I’ve one here but plug pins broke so i soldered in wires and it worked for a while then stopped one day, never looked at it tho if it’s any use?

aha, maybe it would be possible to fix it?

aha okay, good to know thanks

interesting how is the interior of the cars?

I ordered some self adhesive vinyl in stainless, which I was thinking to cut in shape and apply, maybe it will work.   I will have to have a steady hand when cutting the letters though

I painted my boot emblems with model paint in silver (the xl and starlet badge), but it looks kind of shabby. How can I restore them to look as stock as possible?

Any tips are welcome  

Hi

Would this corolla dash clock work on an ep70?

They do look similar https://www.ebay.com/itm/TOYOTA-COROLLA-LEVIN-AE86-84-87-DASH-TIME-CLOCK/253964591075?epid=2206701684&hash=item3b21781fe3:g:TtoAAOSw7FRWaz-l:rk:27:pf:0

Thanks

Hello,

Does anyone have a spare center console for ep70/71? They are very difficult to find in Sweden unfortunately

Yes I will, I can make a mini review of it once I get it

Yes I will report back once I get it (which can be a while since it is free economy shipping from China)

yes that is true. I bought this now as it had good reviews: https://www.ebay.com/itm/TKSTAR-tk905-Car-Vehicle-GPS-Car-GSM-Magnet-Hidden-Spy-Waterproof-Tracker/323276976475?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

When I get my car back from Toyota I will invest in some steering wheel lock and decals

Thanks for all the help

Yes I have also thought about that, maybe fake alarm with decals and steering wheel lock and such will be enough to keep the thieves away? and then to just add a tracking device which could react on sound or vibration (old android phone maybe?)

Fitting an aftermarket alarm here costs around 800£ ... So would like to do it myself

ah okay because I do want to keep it stock but I was considering buying this steering wheel lock (it's the only one which is approved here in sweden)

Also what do you think about hawk car alarms? I don't need anything fancy with remote start and such, only thing I want to add is tracking/getting a notification.

I was thinking about using snap off together with an immobiliser and some alarm stickers, but my question is can I have snap off installed and it still looks stock? I have stock steering wheel

aha will check them out Thanks for the tips. Does it have that it notifies you on the phone?

Hello,

my beloved EP70 got broken into and almost stolen last Monday (it is now at Toyota to be repaired). (they ripped out the lock cylinder from the door and destroyed the panel near ignition)

Once I get it back I want to fit it with an alarm system. I tried to search the forum and googling alot, but I would like your opinion on which one is the best, considering I do not have central locking and such.

Also I would like to get notification on the phone in case the alarm set off as well. 

If anyone have any other security tips they are more than welcome. I would like to keep my car

(I live in Sweden, if that makes any difference)

Thanks in advance for any help

Hello,

Just wondering if any of you have some optional extras laying around for the ep70?

Thanks

okay  I will try to find some tape then  problem is all the ones of good quality that I find is reflective. 

Hello,

Which way can I paint red lines on the bumpers of my ep70 in order to make it look as stock as possible,

Is it regular mask, and spraypaint? or something else?

Hello

I have the 2e-c engine on my ep70 with the automatic choke, however I think it does not work anymore, because it is difficult to start on cold mornings. How I can fix it? I know its a thermoreactive solenoid thingy that is the automatic choke thing, but I do not know the part number for this or how I could fix it

Thanks

I found one
