After a bit of googling Easy cars Japan have a few bits from that manufacturer so I would assume they could get the side mats as well

I'm back from the dealership after the 2 year service, no issue with the service itself but I asked them about the combination meter recall update and it turns out it was done OTA a couple of months ago, I remember the car doing an update at that time but I thought it was something else because the tire pressure bug is still present, well it turns out it was actually related to the recall and they don't have any additional updates available for my cars so it means the bug is there to stay.
I'm a bit disappointed because I know some people got their recall done at their dealer and it did solve the bug, so I'm not sure what's going on there, it's not a big deal at the end of the day, just a small annoyance I was hopping to get rid of
Hi, maybe try another Toyota dealer ?
I was not fully satisfied with the "initial" GR dealer so I went to a normal Toyota dealer, where they did, and still do, everything as expected.
Today went for a wet greasy leafy twisty 120km B-road blast on the Cup2's... 
14-15°C air temperature, tyres hardly managed to warm up, but I was amazed at the grip of these Cup2's nontheless. Anyhow, once the temperatures drop around 10°C, it'll be time to switch back to the OEM BBS wheels with the PS4S for the coming winter.

It's not that they didn't want to do anything, the receptionist showed me the recall database on his screens and the one for the combination meter is now closed so they don't have access to the software update anymore, even if they wanted to, or at least that's what he told me.
I wish I had other options but every Toyota dealership in my region is shit aside from this one, they just don't give a shit about sports cars, at least where I go the boss also owns a GR Yaris so they are kind of up to date with the car's specifics, I can even discuss upgrades with them openly and get advices.

I competed in the Australian Khanacross Championship on the weekend.
Good fun.
I'm tempted to not wash it and leave the mud "paint" on.

I am not sure that this was solvable via OTA update. If i recall correctly official procedure requires whole overwrite procedure with the infamous disconnecting of cooling fans in order to do the update (and check if mechanics haven't forgot to plug them in). I don't see how they could do it OTA in your case when whole Toyota lineup with this display (not only our gr yaris) had to go through this and schedule a service visit. I would definitely double check if your VIN was actually cleared.I'm back from the dealership after the 2 year service, no issue with the service itself but I asked them about the combination meter recall update and it turns out it was done OTA a couple of months ago, I remember the car doing an update at that time but I thought it was something else because the tire pressure bug is still present, well it turns out it was actually related to the recall and they don't have any additional updates available for my cars so it means the bug is there to stay.

Will get these fitted in my new braids with new tpms week after next. First frost hit Estonia this week but daily temps still a bit too high to fit winters yet.

These look cool, how do the adaptive studs work? Is it that when there’s a certain temperature drop, the surrounding rubber blocks contract so the studs are exposed? And if so how do you avoid brake temps warming the tyres and then closing up around the studs…or is that unlikely given winter road speeds?
Really interesting tyre, no need for them here but do wish there was a bit more snow for sliding around.

I`ve talked to my tire guy, who hadn’t seen these yet. Sounded very tempting, but keep in mind that you`d have to stay under 90km/h for
a.) legal reasons, depending on your jurisdiction and
b.) common sense, as they probably fall apart at highway speeds.
I‘m of course looking at this from my Dolomites region, where yes, winters can be fun, but Italian highway speeds are also probably over Estonian conditions. (In Italy, official limits are really just recommendations…)
But please keep us posted, I find this a great innovation on the tire market!

These are a proper Nordic winter tyre, extremely soft rubber compound. Basically with use in dolomites if you drive into lower altitudes or cities in northern Italy you may run into trouble with the law in studs and definitely in other surrounding countries I guess? They don’t really work that well over 10 degrees and rubber wears quite quickly. 0 to -30 they work incredibly well. You would be better suited with a Central European winter compound. High speeds no problem either. I drive up 120kmh on highways in Estonia in winter. Studs have a little engagement when warm (had them in office today). How they work is described here;
