exactly. Never seen the windshield fluid light, and the maintenance light is pretty convenient. The passenger buzz can get slightly annoying, so I guess that gets my vote

The passenger airbag light coming on whenever someone's riding with me, like it matters if they know as soon as they get in. If I wreck the car they'll still find out.

The airbag should still stay active even if there's no passenger. It would eliminate the "need" for an indicator light.

The cup holder thing is slightly annoying. If I've got a soda and the heater on... its not the best lol. If they were a little lower it might work much better, but I usually use the middle rear cup holder if thats the situation. Or freeze my thighs off

If it was you I could do that for it's entertainment value

Realistically though if I did have a kid I wouldn't put him in the front seat to begin with

I think having a temperature light as opposed to a gauge is the most annoying aspect to me.

You can, its the dimmer wheel under the electric mirror adjusters.

As for having kids in the front seat - isnt that illegal?

+1


At first I found the center console kind of annoying, but I think I got used to that pretty quickly, a few days.

Now, I can't find anything wrong with the dashboard except it's missing a tach.

There is a thread on here somewhere about how to disable the seat belt sound on the passenger side. I end up just tying the seatbelt around the grocery bags, problem solved

+1 . Full temp gauge could be a tip off to a disaster before it's too late .
