I finally got my xB in from the dealer on Friday, February 27th, minus the leather seats (waiting on the color I wanted).


I managed to get pictures up in my profile, but am confused as to how I would go about posting one from my computer to this thread...

Anyways, just check out my profile to see pics of my xB.

In the sunroof pic, there is a shot of the dash - the four buttons there are for activating the sunroof. one to open, one to close, one to vent, and the last button is to determine whether or not the sunroof will close upon shutting off the ignition; when green it closes automatically, when red it stays open.

Great looking ride man. Few questions- how much for the seats? and the grille in the first pic, is that actually on the car or not? i can't tell on the second front shot.

and for posting pics, you gotta host em on the internet like at imagestation (which sux right now) and then post the link to your album so we can check em out.

 

congrats!!

 

Nice job on the sunroof, looks very clean!

 

Thank you, guys! :D



My friend messed around with the first pic in Adobe Photoshop - I think he only did a plastic wrap effect, but that should be why it looks different.

I have the stock grille, as of now. Hopefully I can get it changed sooner or later.

Where else can I host my pics on the internet? I had also heard bad things on the forum about imagestation. ie, "Don't use image station!"


With the sunroof, they had originally planned on putting the button on the roof of the interior... lined up with the base of the rearview mirror. I told my dealer I had faith in him and to get it somewhere on the dash. I think he put it the first spot I had suggested, but I thought it turned out great.

 

Ack, almost forgot... the two tone leather seats are somewhere to the nature of $1,200.

 

Congrats, and good luck with it. I like the sunroof BTW.

 

is this for the front and rear seats? my mom does upholstry and she plans on doing my seats and other accessories.

 

I wish all the luck in the world with the sunroof, believe it or not, my salesman talked me out of it. Says that they have run into too many problems with it. Any comments out there?

 

Yup, front and rear.

I haven't had any problems with the sunroof, but I've only had the car a few days. Either way, I think it's warranteed for 3 years or so.

 

Lucky guy, my mom won't even do my laundry anymore :?

 

I can still con my mom into doing my laundry every so often.

 

bobby am i retarded? i dont see pics anywhere but i wanna check out the sunroof!

 

congrats on the xB ..... but man that's a complicated sunroof ..... mine does all that with a single rocker switch in the roof ....

 

Ok, Your XB has a sunroof? Was that installed at the dealership? Also how much did you pay for the sunroof?

 

No, no... I assure you that you're not retarded, friend.

I tried to post pictures in the thread, but I didn't have a site to host the pictures from.

Just check my profile, the pictures are there.

The sunroof cost $995 and yes, it was through the dealership, although the dealership did not install it themselves. I did it through the dealership, as to assure that it would be warranteed. The price seemed somewhat reasonable, as well.

It may seem complicated, but I actually like the buttons. They were originally going to give me a single button, but I suppose that the dealer had remembered my commenting that I didn't like the button they were offering. When I got it those four buttons were there and I was quite pleased with result. :D

I thought if the switches were on the interior roof of the car it would look awkward, since there isn't much of anything in that area.
