Thanks for posting this vid. I am trying to get my I'Miev upgraded. I live in Oregon. I've been in touch with the California shop who are negotiating with Oz-Diy. The CA shop is CalMax Fine Cars. I hope they make it happen.

Correction: Car had 12,000 miles on it when I bought it in 2016. It NOW has 55K. btw, That color is a vinyl wrap (made by 3M). It was done by Kolorwerx here in Portland. They did a nice job: removed all lights, hood, liftback and door hangles. When this photo was taken, it had gone through...

Hi Folks; May I direct your attention to another thread related to this one. "I-Miev Battery Upgrade". Some of us are trying to find a way to get OZ (AU) to ship some upgrade packs, software and install instruction to the U.S. Thanks, Marty Portland, OR

I hope I can find a way for several I-Miev owners to do this. JRAY (member) is interested in doing the work up in Washington state. But he has to commit to a few upgrade jobs before OZ will start sending packs/software/instruction. I really do not want to send my I-Miev to the crusher. My...

I bought it used in Medford, OR in 2016. 55K miles on it. Nothing has gone wrong with it. Runs and feels just like when I bought it. Some battery degradation -- mileage guage fully charged now reads 48-51 miles depending on outside air temperature (35 degrees F. -- 65 degrees F.) That's...

Hi Folks; Just became aware of this great battery and systems upgrade. https://www.ozelectricvehicles.com/mitsubishi-i-miev Unfortunately, this service is not available in the U.S. When I asked if they could just send me the new battery pack and software upgrades, they said "This is not an...

Hello; I love the look of the moons, but the inset of the factory steel wheels do not allow much grabbing of the moon hubcaps. I kept throwing them. (all on the driver's side - interesting). So I swapped them out with factory alloys, then had those powder coated in chrome-like color. Not as...

Hello; Do you still have a remote preheat/pecool for an I-Miev? Please contact. I am in Oregon, U.S. THanks, Marty

I second Don's remarks about LED replacement headlights. You must be careful about which brand you buy because of the reflector plate position. The hot spot on many LEDs will not align with the reflector. This causes blinding glare to any oncoming driver.

Just went through my 4th winter with the Chrome wrap. All's good. The car is garaged.

Thank you to everyone who responded. I got a set of factory alloy wheels, had them powder coated in "chromey silver, and mounted. They look great against the chrome vinyl wrap. Thanks

Hello; I live in Portland, Oregon. I want to buy factory alloy wheels for my I-Miev. Anybody have any for sale? Thanks, Marty

Hi Folks; There's a post earlier in this thread about the longevity of vinyl wraps. I have that shiny silver/chrome colored one mentioned above. I am now going through my third winter here in Oregon - snow and rain (mostly rain). I have had only a little lifting around the front wheel well...

Hi jray3; Thanks for the response. I know the "crinkled" noise. Yes, mine makes the same noise. But I sure do like the look. The disks I'm using are the same spun stainless. However, when i look at the stock plastic hubcaps, and the stainless ones, I notice that the shoulder on the...
