I have fitted the DAB radio I purchased and attached the Satnav off my other unit . I used a aftermarket Aerial Imwell DAB Aerial Car Radio Signal Amplifier GSM Patch: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics and used a adapter as the one on the aerial was not deep enough Bingfu DAB Car Aerial Adapter SMB Female to Male: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics all works really well thanks for your help

Bob Thanks for the advice I think a aftermarket one will be the easier to fit .

My 2015 Icon Hybrid has the Sat nav module fitted . This radio does not have Dab . I have purchased a Hybrid Radio with DAB from a 2016 but no Satnav , What is needed to swop the SAT Nav module between the radios and will my Hybrid have the aerial fitted for the DAB Radio ? TIA for any advice Steve

I am getting 58mpg at the moment dropped from about 65mpg in the warmer weather
-
That is why I paid 3k more for the yaris than the Auris . Cant tow a trailer with the Yaris though

I have a 1.4 d4d Auris estate and a Yaris Hybrid . I use both to commute to work 2 days in each and one in my Panda 4x4 (39mpg) 😉 the commute is a 74 mile round trip with a mixture of motorway and urban roads it can be stop start at times . The Auris is showing a average of 61.4 mpg and the yaris is around 58 mpg but more summer . I prefer the Hybrid on the run to work due to the Auto etc but the diesel pulls away better at speed .You will find that a diesel Auris is lot cheaper to buy than a Hybrid one

It Cruises along well at 70 mph . I tend to go along at 60 mph and the car is doing about 60 miles to the gallon

I have the 1.4 d4d In a 2015 Auris sports Tourer . Its go well but fast and need to change down on some hills but happy with the car . I belive with a 2016 model at least in the uk the car would be a 1.6 BMW engine . I bought the 1.4 D4d as I was told it was the more reliablr engine

I had the optiwhites fitted to the Yaris and to be honest they were still not brillant . I have changed them for https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ELTA-HIR2-9012-PX22D-VISIONPRO-150-UPGRADE-CAR-HEADLIGHT-BULBS-3700K-12V-55W/184104731099?epid=8031872835&hash=item2add7f41db:g:D3EAAOSw~w5eCSed These seem better then the optiwhites and have now been in the Yaris for nearly 10 months. I have a Auris as well and have a set optiwhites in there fir over 2 years . I am not sure if the shape of the highlight makes a difference but they seem better in the Auris than the Yaris.
-
I have goodyear vectors on the back of the auris . I have found no difference in the summer , It will be intertesting to see how they go now with winter coming . I have Michelin Crossclimates on the front and these seem feine as well
-
We have a Auris Sports Tourer ( d4d) and a yaris ( Hybrid) I find the Auris low to get in and out off compared to the Yaris . Otherwise the Auris is a fine car with loads of room with the estate able to carry most things we need
-
My 2015 Yaris with the Toyota optiwhite bulbs is not as good as our 2015 Auris also with optiwhite and Projector headlights
-
Thanks all as mine does not have the rear tints only being a Icon hybrid sounds like I might be better sticking with my manumatic diiping mirror.

Thanks for help , I will have a look at ordering one to try
