Replying to: cbear9494 (Jul 09, 2006 6:30 pm) The installation companies are likely to be the first line of attack in the event in a damages suit. Most are small independent businesses with little or no capital. In the past this was almost never an issue because side and curtain airbags were few and far between located mostly in premium vehicles with leather already installed. Now these are becoming standard all the way down to the econo-boxes so the issue is very pertinent. Put another way the risk exposure for a large manufacturer might be very large with millions of these vehicles going out onto the road each year instead of a few thousand.

Replying to: kdhspyder (Jul 09, 2006 8:45 pm) I am planning to get a TCH in Minnesota, where heated seats are real nice. I don't care as much about leather, so I am thinking of adding the heat to the cloth seats. Would this case an airbag problem/risk? Should I get the leather added with the heated seats (does it seem odd to have heated cloth seats)? It will be faster for me to get the TCH without leather, etc, and add these later for the same or less cost.

Replying to: spiff72 (Jul 10, 2006 6:51 pm) I am still debating adding aftermarket leather seats. I've seen cars done with Classic Soft trim- very nicely done- even nicer than the factory leather, IMHO. There are also more color and stitching options with aftermarket leather. I'm not sure about the airbag issue though. tom |

Does anyone have photos of your car with the factory Body Side Molding (BSM) applied. With the addition of the side airbags the window level has risen, and I just think that the door panel would look better with the trim. I am also interested from the chip/ding protection perspective but am concerned about how it may look. Have ordered a Desert Sand TCH and am wondering how the matching BSM would look. I also wonder about installing black BSM along with the mud flaps. It would sure be nice to see them in advance. I'm curious that I have yet to see a car with BSM installed. Is it not fashionable these days? I'm always a decade behind on these things. Just ask my wife.

Have any of you installed aftermarket wheels? What did you get? Did your TPMS work with them and if not can you turn the sensor system off?

| I have a white TCH with body side molding. They look good. I didn't order them the dealer just happened to have an unsold TCH on the lot with them on. I got my car after a wait of about one hour. | |

I just read in the owners manual about a possible negative effect on the nav system after window tinting. Can anyone address this? Has anyone tinted their windows and had negative effect on the GPS??? Have an appointment to get mine tinted today, so quick responses would be appreciated. Thanks! |
