OK, my 2005 Sapphire Silver Blue is home. I just went through the whole process and it is so much easier than you will read on any website. Recall letters, compliance letters and registration were not required in my case. The important item was the TITLE and the sales receipt. The TITLE is needed on both sides of the border and the sales receipt is needed on the Canadian side so they can properly charge you GST. PST is not due until you get the form#2 back from the RIV and you go to Canadian Tire to have running lights added. You take the stamped form #2 from Canadian Tire to the license office and they give you plates and charge you the PST. You are done

If anyone has any questions, just PM me. I hate to generalize but US customs is like the Military, very serious, large men with crew cuts, just answer what they ask you, no more no less. Feels like they are just waiting for one wrong answer or slip up and you will spend 3 weeks in jail. Canadian customs was like Tim Horton's, how can we help you, how can we make this easy for you, will have you out of here in 5 minutes etc.

Thanks to all
Tommy
