Quite a challenge to the TTC as they need to paint the AC unit and the battery to red which seem extra hassles to the existing ways of doing things. For example, if all these parts have to be red in color now, how about those that have been in use in the older buses (1000 - 1149)?

If you mean the ones that are rebuilt in the old livery, they will likely not be repainted unless there is a significant need for it such as a major collision.

No, he meant parts that the OGs and the NGs have in common such as battery pack housing.

The ones I saw have the old livery

[bus_7246]

I assume the remainder of this batch will retain the old livery. The following batches will start with the new livery. 

[7879]

1351 and 1371 rebuilt. Still have the old livery

[6254]

1278 rebuilt

[Viva5113]

Spot 1351 has rebuilt with old liverly.

[7879]

1347 and 1365 rebuilt

[TechnicaProductions]

Apparently 1262 has received the new livery and should enter service this weekend. Can anyone confirm?

[leylandvictory2]

very unlikely 1262 going to enter service this weekend.  It most likely need a new MTO inspection sticker first. 

[bus_7246]

I think it was 1306 that I saw finished it's refurbishment.

I saw 1262 today at Finch Station and it had the old livery. Didn't get a very good look at it because I was trying to catch a bus, but it had the new doors. Couldn't tell if it had a new paint job though

[leylandvictory2]

only the rebuild buses get the new doors unless the original doors are damaged.

It's been rebuilt.  Laid up with turbocharger issues. Cummins warranty.
