I have an '06 that I'm thinking about getting rust protected, however I'm wondering if that is wise given all the plastic panels. Not only do plastic panels not rust, but the rust protection can sometimes damage rubber or plastic. Any thoughts?

| Anyone know of seat covers for the rear seat when the are in the "stored up" position? Looking for something to cover them when hauling my dogs around! | |
Does the factory accessory sunshade/screen for the rear sunroof fit with the glass in place or does the glass have to be removed to utilize the sunshade/screen? I'd like to use something to keep the sun out while the removeable glass section is in place.

Take some newspaper and make a template of the sunroof glass. Then, transfer the template to the tint film and cut it accordingly. After you have it cut correctly, apply the tint per the instructions for the film. Going this route, you can choose how dark to tint the sunroof by looking at the different shades of tint that are offered. A roll should run you $30 or less. Hope this helps. |

I was stopped in my '06 Element, waiting to turn left off of a busy 4-lane road when I spotted a Grand AM in my mirror heading right for me at pretty high speed. Sure enough the idiot slammed into me, at approximately 80kph (limit in this area is 60kph). His excuse was that he didn't see me due to the sun in his eyes, I think it was really speed & genetics (his being dumb as a bag of hammers). Today, my back hurts but no other injuries (not counting the driver of the Grand AM who hit his head). There has to be a better way for this guy to get a Darwin Award without injuring others! The Element rear was lifted off the ground and the vehicle moved ahead a few meters. Because of the plastic panels it isn't apparent what was really damaged underneath, but it does need new rear bumper & rear 1/4 panel, plus there is no longer an properly aligned gap between the tailgate & taillight. link title http://www.flickr.com/photos/28597047 The front end of the Grand Am was destroyed: the entire front (grill etc), hood crumpled in the middle, side fender crumpled to the driver's door, front wheel pushed back. I have long said that driver's licences should be issued only after candidates pass an IQ test.
