Thanks, I'll try that (nothing like that is displayed now). I'll do a search to see if I can figure out what else it can do.

Yes it's the storage bin lid. Didn't realize that they could be just sanded and painted. Thanks for the suggestion.

or you can look at www.bumperplugs.com

and of course you can always paint yourself like most of us have done.

Thanks for the links. Looks like the sand and paint route is the way to go though. The wing on your car looks like what I'd like to get. Where did you find it?

I found a write-up on Pelican about the OBC but it was only talking about 2001 and older. Does anybody know if this is the same on the 2002?

The rear spoiler is part of the Aerokit I, had it installed last week (minus skirts).

do not know anything about the OBC hack, my 2000 came with the OBC.

Being from Canada, I can't wait for weather like you're having.
Welcome to the forums.
How many miles on your car?

[stjoh]

It has 59k on it which brings me to my next question. I got all the service records for it and it had a "major" service at 45k and a minor at 56k (Oct last fall). With 59k on it I'll be at the 60k mark real soon which would normally mean a significant service (the local dealer quoted me $1,500 for a 60k!). Given the service history what would you suggest I do at 60k? Minor? Or should I just wait until 71k (56k +15k)?

What's the deal with this OBC anyway. Do they sell the cars with the equipment installed but charge you to have it activated?
