Went to see a dealer yesterday and he told me that I needed StoneX a film that will prevent rock chips. Its a film from 3M that is applied over the car but you cant really see this. Wants $499. Cool with the price but can you see the film? Does the product work? StoneX website is terminator like and looks goofy so I wanted real experience if any is out there. Thanks.

You can typically get this done for closer to $200-$300 through an independant shop. I've never heard of StoneX but I would be very skeptical of it actually being a 3M product. I had a product called "Richochet" applied to one of my cars several years ago and it was also supposedly 3M but it was not. It yellowed and peeled after just a couple of years on the car. The 3M brand clear bra that I have on my 4 year old Audi on the other hand looks perfect still. Not a blemish in site and it has kept the front of the car looking very very good. You CAN see the clear bra but you really have to look for it. Definitely worth while for keeping the paint from getting chipped, etc, on these newer model cars.

You will notice that some have this faint line at the front of the hood. That's the clear bra. If you run your finger over it you will realize that there is film applied to the hood and that's why you see the little line there. This product is more popular in some areas of the country than others, but pretty much found anywhere that expensive newer model cars are found. |

Does anyone know how I can get to the EDIT screen to delete an address in the address book? The manual simply says "Go to the edit screen", but I can't seem to find out how to get there! Also, saying "Edit Address" isn't doing it either. Thanks |

Could anyone confirm if all non-Tech/Entertainment models will have the power hatch? I heard that this will occur on '08 built starting about now as we speak. I never really understood why it wasn't standard in the first place with a $40K+ vehicle. Thanks!
