Does anyone know how to add this to an FRS? Any way to rewire the AUTO option on the existing switches in the droor to do this? (Instead of panic button, the windows would go down?)

That would be a nice feature.. But theres another feature in its place...

When you approach the FOB sensor zone by the outside of your car when the doors are locked the lights turn on.

As if the car was saying "GET IN LETS GO FOR A SPIN!"

Subaru doesn't have this feature on any of their other cars, so it's quite likely that the BRZ doesn't either.

It's not noted as a changeable dealer programming option in the manual and I couldn't find any mention of this anywhere else in the manual. My MCS had this and it was a great feature.

You have to remember that most of the interior/electronic bits that the driver actually interfaces with on this car are actually Toyota-derived though- do any newer Toyotas have this ability?

Any idea where in the manual? I looked at the keys section and the windows section and found nothing.

It's been low to mid 30s here off and on for the last month (not quite to 37C though, I'll give you that). Humidity in this part of Ontario is bad. We are pretty much surrounded by the great lakes, and the air gets really saturated. Humidity levels in the 80s are more or less the norm here this time of year. Tomorrow calls for 34C with a humidex of 44C. Not the highest this year, but still pretty gross.

Pretty much what Orlando weather is like today.

And I haven't had time to get tint yet. Going to lunch is painful.
