Also, I found out the stock Yokohama's suck.

Yeah I bought my Car from Scion of EL Cajon and I got a call a few days later from some foo in the service dept telling me I need to bring my car back because they forgot to install something that I had "Purchased" I couldnt figure out what the hell he was talking about and I had totally inspected the car left and right didnt see this compartment at all in the trunk and when I picked my car back up from the service dept. 10 min after dropping it off the cover to the secret comp was off in the trunk I was like WTF?! It reeked of weed so bad it smelt like someone was hot boxing my trunk.

i dunno if this has been said already or not cause it'll take to long to go through all 15 pages, but i learned that if you have the car locked, and then you press the unlock button on the remote but dont open up a door then the car will automatically re-lock after a minute or 2
p.s. sorry if this has already been said

Thanks Texas!!!!!!

Don't mean to brag, but just bought my tC from Universal Scion in San Antonio, TX (soon to be the nations largest toyota/scion dealership). The dealership color keyed a "DigiLock" key code thingy on the driver side door for me free of charge. So should I lock my keys in my car, all i have to do is type in a 5 digit number and PRESTO! unlocked!

It's the little keypad thingy that has like 5 buttons with 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8, and 9/0 on it, they are backlit with a red LED so they look pretty cool. The car is at the dealership getting the pedestal spoiler installed right now, so perhaps after lunch I will have a few pictures of it up.
