As Photodavo, turbolane and myself dis-assembled my '06 on Saturday, there are a few minor changes we noticed. I figured I'd list them in a new thread, but if it should be merged with the UTH one that's stickied, go ahead.
These changers were simple observations by David and Lane, and in rough comparison to their vehicles (both '02's I think).
- Passenger Seat has plastic covers on the front bolts (you can't see the bolts themselves). You need no tools to remove the covers (just pull up gently).
- Passenger side seatbelt is bolted to the seat itself. The driver's side remains bolted to the car. The seatbelt bolt is 14mm, same as the rear seat bolts.
- The "Entry Trim Pieces" (the ones with the s2000 plaque) have additional clips on the ends.
- The radio door area is slightly different. There is not a smaller trim piece under the door that follows the contour of the tranny tunnel.
- The door panels are different in design appearance
- The leather on the console goes all the way behind the seat to just past the middle of the back panel.
- The hooks that storage bags can be attached to are now only present on the driver's side. The passenger side has flat blanks where the hooks would be.
- Radio is now made by Clarion
- Speakers are difinately updated. They are not paper, and feature a rubber surround. They appear to be Pioneers based on the color of the speaker (just a guess, they were not labeled at all).
- Passenger seat has two wires connecting it to the "Car", but there is now a small box with two more plugs underneath. Presumably this is the weight sensor for the airbags.
That's all that I can recall was mentioned. Again, these were just quick differences noticed by owners of older cars. I have no idea if these are all already known or not. But figured I'd share in the interest of having complete information.

Some details on why it was closed and if you wanted me to post the info in that forum, or if you were telling me to read that forum would have been nice. Either way, I reposted the info there.
