I have seen several posts that mention a passenger airbag disable, but haven't found any description of this feature in the booklet. I can see either a light or a switch just above the shift knob on the page labeled connect of the booklet, but cannot tell if it is a switch. It makes little sense to have a passenger airbag light without a switch, but I can't find any mention of a disable switch in the manual.

So where is the outside temp displayed? In the gauge cluser?

Ahh, thanks. Now the questions is, it's would probably be impossible to get just that part to work in a 2002 dash. I've been looking on something that doesn't look "stuck on" and not many places in the s2000.

What does less raw really mean? A Porsche 911 Carrera from 1989 is a pretty raw car. It has no traction or stability control of any kind, no ABS brakes, not even power steering. Today's 911 Carrera S has a whole slew of electronic driver aids with acronyms such as PSM and PASM. Is the new Carrera S necessarily a diluted driver's car?

Am I missing pictures or what? I don't see Laguna Blue, the new steering wheel, or the new seats in any picture? Only a Silver, NFR, and Rio.
I like VSA only because it can be turned off (for sporty drives, but left on for daily safety - this is good IMO).
I strongly dislike the new wheels and DBW.
I can't see the seats, but I love mine so I will say I like the older ones more!
The rest of the car seems okay. I like GPW/Black more than GPW/Tan, but I Sebring/Red was very hot.
I liked it being a drivers car, but small things like knowing the outside temp is helpful when it's your daily driver. A thermometer doesn't add much weight. The other gizmos can be left out, though.
One car I wouldn't dare drive - 996 GT2. So much power, no TC. If you're a good driver, this ideal. If you're like me or 95% of the people out there, a GOOD computer (like BMW DSC) can only help you enjoy that power.
Thanks for the good info!!!

[QUOTE=Harpoon,Aug 28 2005, 09:29 AM]I'm looking at the brochure now and I think you're right - the picture with "control" definitely has a black piece there just on the driver's side of the shift knob.

It probably works like it does in other Hondas. When a package (or a kid) weighing less than 75 lbs. (or so) is in the passenger seat, sensors automatically turn off the airbag
