axis008 Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 Isn't there a headlight beam height adjustment roller switch? I know the JDM Spec. B had it, but I don't remember if we got it over here on our shores. -ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, we don't have it on USDM models, but I've seen photos of it. rats. sqrl b8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axis008 Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 Aw :( okay. Thanks for clearing that up for me. Can you adjust the projector or whatever in the headlight housing in some cars? -ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaggy Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 How about the DRL's going off when you put on the emergency brake. Let's you sit in the dark with the car running. Good for stalkers too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsyGT Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 I really like the turbo. :) The little flaps and covers under the car to direct airflow are neat too. tom tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmayy Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 [quote name='plunk10']I like the fact that the passenger airbag detects when there is a passenger sitting there or not, and turns the passenger airbag on or off accordingly.[/QUOTE]It's nice, but I believe it is also a US law now, so all new USDM cars have this.

The adjuster is inside the headlight housing, it only moves the low-beam light fixture. Very clever, but I cringed at the thought of replacement cost the first time I saw that on my STi.

Komeng Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 Button release for rear seats...a light press and the seat plonks down flat! Buttons are placed next to the retractable shopping bag hooks on the side walls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoxerGT2.5 Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 One thing I don't like...is the dimming of the gauges when you turn the lights on. Have to hit the button on the center info to get them brighter. I think it should be the otherway around. If you want them dim hit the button. Oh and do not, I repeat do not, rip ass with seat heater on. WHOA....smells like hot ass in july. :D OBAMA......One Big Ass Mistake America!

squirrel-bait Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 One more I noticed this morning (and don't think I'm hung up on wipers or anything, it's just that it's been raining here lately): the rear window wiper (wagon) changes it's interval based on engine/vehicle speed. How cool is that?! sqrl b8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John M Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 If the ignition isn't on, you can't turn on the lights any other way. They had to give you a way to have parking lights if your car was off. On the other hand, I don't know why they didn't do it like every other manufacturer out there. If the car is off and the lights went off automatically, turning them off and back on will give you lights again until you turn them off manually. My last car did that and it was 10 years old. On the subject of auto intermittent wipers, my Galant VR4 had speed-sensitive intermittent wipers in front. If you stopped for a redlight they would slow appropriately, and if you passed someone they'd continue to speed up as you did. It was a very useful feature that I wish all cars had.
