    Taking a trip this weekend, my wife had some clothes hanging on the hanger brackets - right smack over the back window - blocking visibility. What a crazy place for Toyota to put those.

    I just noticed that there are some like spots on the side - with plastic blocking in them. I popped those out, and the hangers over the back window - and switched them out so we're not hanging clothers covering the back window.

    I popped the outer tops of them off and removed them - disassembled. Had a time figuring how in hell they go back in. The secret: assemble them fully again - with the metal spring clips in the center - outside in your hands. Once fully assembled and in your hand - just pop the whole assembly back in and it snaps into place. Thought maybe some others here might benefit from this if you're suffering the same issue.

    PS: I "really like" the "S" shifter they put in the truck. It's like my 2013 Subaru Outback paddle shifters and just as handy. Why do I have a Subaru - cause the Toyota dealer - on a Camry buy - let me walk out over $500. The very same guy, on this 2016 SR, was giving me a "special" deal since he knew of my last walkout on the Camry in 2013. Yea, right. I beat his "special" SR price the very next day by $800.

    Awesome. I have the same issue with my sport coats for work. Can you post a pic of where you moved them to? I don't seem to have blanks in my truck.

    Oh boy sorry - my SR truck is an access cab and the "blank" spots, with the plastic plugs, are directly over the access cab door when you open it up.
