Proud new owner of a black sand pearl 5-door '07 RS! :wub:

Was in mint condition except for a stupid bumper sticker.

Picked up a K&N filter, getting it tinted tomorrow, not sure what else I'll do to it yet (other than get some winter tires/rims). Looking into getting a new headunit because this one lacks the aux in. Any suggestions?

Definitely an upgrade from the '97 Saturn SL1 I traded in!

Thanks for the warm welcome! Still getting used to the centre gauges, haha.

You won't even be thinking about it in a week. You may also grow to prefer them to traditional ones.

about the aux input. I don't know about the '07s or the RSs but mine is actually between the seats so you may have it, just not where you are used to it.

maybe I can save you some green and you can keep your head unit for now.

I tried to take pictures in progression so you can kind of see where I am talking about. I have an '08 yaris base though it had a few add ons. it was actually advertized as an S but doesn't have the alloys or body kit.

hopefully this helps.

oh and welcome to the site.

****edit****
on mine the aux that you see is a flap so you lift it and the 3.5mm plug is below it.

Thanks for the pics. Unfortunately all I just have a delete cover in the slot above the center door lock. :(

Congratulations and Welcome to YW :clap:
Car looks nice.
In the second pic, it looks as though the windshield is cracked...toward the
bottom right. I'm hoping it's just the rain.

Yep, I know the feeling. I did the same thing, when I saw my 08 3dr hatch back, that is white with a black racing stripe, from the back to the front. I don't think even asked about the price!!!!

Yeah it was, these are the dealer's pics (haven't had a chance to take my own), and it was replaced before I got the keys.

Just got it back from the tint shop this afternoon, 20% around the rear. Would have liked to get the fronts done, but the cops here are super anal about that, especially when their quotas are up. :mad:

I just tinted the rears for the same reason. Not that the cops around here are crazy about ticketing for front tint, but I figured why take the chance or even give a cop a reason to stop and ask me about it (happened once a long time ago in another State and I was given a fix-it ticket to have the front tint removed.)
