Is there a 12V battery present on the TCH?

Yes. It is on the right side in the trunk behind a small access panel.

Yup, I have one, too.

Steve,

I checked out the link you posted and your car is really sharp..

I am ordering my TCH tomorrow afternoon. One of my friends works at a dealership and is going to hook me up.

Your pictures answered one my questions without me having to ask.... Do those emblems have posts or are they just stickys, obviously they are just stick-ons... How did you remove them and did they come off easy?

Also, I'm kinda bummed that the Hybrid didn't have an option for fog lights (probably in the interest of saving energy) but it looks to me like the XLE front end is the same and that perhaps the fog lights would mount in the Hybrid... Did you happen to notice if the harness is there for fog lights?

Thanks... I'll post pics of mine as soon as I get it.. From what I hear, I'll have to wait like 6 weeks.
