The latest version of Carista needs a new dongle for some reason. I just went with the Carista dongle.
Hey Pet have you seen this bumper? It is on a car at SEMA. I don't know details.

In the BRZ, I hate that stupid little cubby hole in front of the shifter. IMO, its worthlessness is through the roof. Not big enough to store anything. If you find something to put there ya have to make sure the shifter isn't going to piss you off lol

There is at least one whole thread on here devoted to that little slot! I have found it to be a great launch platform if I wanted to put any flat object into the back seat. Just insert object (i.e. cd case), hit gas and voila object is in back seat.

I have my garage door remote opener in there. It's a good place for it, out of the way, barely visible but easy to reach and operate.

So out of everything that everyone,and myself have complained about or disliked from torque dip to narrow wheels,crickets to no center console armrest,here's probably my top most hated thing.

You see that scum about an inch down from the edge of the window? I HATE it! The main reason I hate it is because other than tinting the windows,I honestly don't know of a way to fix it,unlike almost everything else that people don't like about this car.

I've tried washing the weather striping,oiling it,using silicone spray,but nothing works from keeping that scum off of the glass. Maybe the only thing that works is tinting the windows,which I plan on doing in the near future,but I'm not even sure that's going to work.

Since that little cubby hole is just to the left of the USB/Aux in connector, I just assumed it would be the place to put an aux cable and the USB drive with all my songs on it. They fit perfectly in there, and don't move during spirited driving. I also have some folded up fast food napkins in there. It's pretty handy.

Nope, it does it on tinted windows too. A bit of windex on a microfiber cloth once a week keeps it at bay.

Yea, I keep my black ipod classic in there, with a short USB cord. Can't even see it.

Amen!

I wipe that stuff off all the time and it seems like it is back in a day.

I actually dislike the antenna on the top, fin or otherwise. I think it would look better without it.
