Default Gettin' a xB soon, need some help.

Hi all. I'm new to the Scion forum and currently own a '02 Mazda Protege 5 and a '95 Nissan 240sx. We are gettin' rid of my wifes 240sx in order to get a new xB so I have a few questions. My main complaint about not buying the xB is the lack of cruise control. My dealer said they would install one but I install car audio for a shop here in town and I have seen some of the installs some of these dealers have done and no thanks. My dealer also said that they were getting some xB's in this fall and they would have cruise control, has anyone else heard of this? My other question is what websites should I check out for xB accessories? What are some must haves and some stay away froms? Thanks for the help.

P.S. www.sounddomain.com/id/jellybean is my website for my Protege5 if anyone has any question on car audio I will try to help out

Go to www.scion.com and you can build your xB. I am getting the cruise installed - all accessories are added by the port or dealer so the scion is made to have this. Of course, I have an in since my Dad is the asst service manager at the dealership so I know mine will be done right!

Try "toyotaparts4u.com", this website, and of course eBay. I'm sure there are lots more out there, but those are a start.

As far as things to stay away, if you want aftermarket rims, get them on your own. Don't get what the dealer offers, because they'll be way too expensive, especially the TRD wheel/tire package. If you're going with a different intake, get the cold air instead of the short ram. I'd also suggest bigger wheels and lowering springs. Eliminating that wheelwell gap does wonders to the looks of the car.
