      I didn't know the little arm on the glovebox is a damper. Found that out yesterday when I swiped hinges from one at the JY. I guess mine leaked years ago.

        Well after the lock inside the driver's door of my CB got jammed and had it replaced. the outside door handle was also replaced with the infared keyless handle. (here's the cool part) When i'm inside my car and i lock the doors from the driver's side.I can still open the driver's door to exit! The good thing also, is that when i exit and shut the door, IT STAYS LOCKED, NO OPENING!!!!

        Another one would be the light around the ignition, doesn't go off until i lock the doors.

        Final one: This is for those who don't have a cup holder. The space in between the E-brake and the driver's seat can be used as a single cup holder. Was funny how i found out. I bought B.K one day and realized i may have to hold the cup in between my legs. Looking around for somewhere to place it, then my eyes caught sight of the space in between the seat and e-brake. WAS LIKE A HEAVEN SENT! The cup didn't budge at all, no matter how hard i drove.

              Here's another i forgot: Underneath both front seats, there is a part of the material that makes up the base of seat that can be slightly spaced at the sides. What so special about this? A VERY GOOD place to hide small goodies that's what!

              - whether your an owner of a small lightweight hand gun

              - take away your kids bag of chips because he/she wanted to open it in the car and you told him/her NO!

              - want to hide certain stuff from your parents that you didn't want them knowing as yet. *cough-cough* condoms *cough* (yea i did that back when i was 17)

              Basically anything you can think of, of a relative size and weight that u slip in that spot without putting alot of stress on the material.

                    Oh wow I want this. I removed my trunk light bulb because there are times when I want to leave my trunk open but I don't want to drain the battery.


                    You can fit 2x10s in your sedan (coupe too?) and still be able to shift (5 speed, suppose automatic is the same) and close the trunk. But they might end up resting on the dash.

                        I know nobody has posted in this thread in a while but I just had to post this. All models have a little vent in the corners of their dashes for the defroster, just to the inside of the A-arms. All of them are interchangeable EXCEPT the SE. It is a little longer and skinnier than the other models, much to my surprise.

                          There's this lady with Crashed CB out here in Jamaica, I don't remember which region it came from, could be Europe or Austrialian. Either way its RHD but it has tailights like the USDM CBs ( the inner tails are longer and closer to licence plate). The sunvisors for both passenger and driver are slightly bigger than usual because they have bigger mirrors AND a light! the light is turn on by an on/off button thats released once the flap on the inside of the visor is opened (sorta like when you open the door and the light in the door turns on except i believe u can press the button to turn the visors off) Too bad the CB was written off. Lady fell asleep at the wheel and head-on collision

                          Worse part is i approached her to part it out and she was reasonable enough (sorta). i'm still saving up for those goodies. BUT! she just wants to get rid of the car, because its beyond repair and she want to sell it for $JA 70 grand! equivalent to 824 $US. She has got to sniffing crack. damn people

                            I love all of the features listed in this thread, I also love the awesome designed dash, you can throw a phone on the dash and it will be there after a spirited drive.

                            One thing that wasn't listed that is the best thing in the world to me, is the adjustible and fold up armrest.
