Here's another one for ya 13.
Press and hold both buttons on the key remote until the light (red lens at top of key fob) blinks twice. Now when you press the open button both doors and trunk will open with one push instead of two!
Repeat procedure to go back to two presses to open passenger door and trunk (why??)

This is for security reasons... assuming you are approaching your car in an 'unfavorable' location... you don't want your passenger door to open... the 'bad guys' are on that side ... you only want the driver door to open... and hopefully close quickly behind you.

1) hes already jacked with my car on that side
2) Hes more than likely on crack or younger than me soeither way he can eaisily get around to my door before I can
3) His bad-buddy(s) is most likely hiding on my side of the car keeping a look out and now is behind me!
Think Id walk by to another car.... JUST LONG ENOUGH TO LOAD A ROUND

Re: Things I learned
I'd like a definite reason for the little strap at the top/back of the passenger headrest. Is it REALLY for the dry cleaning, or is it for the child safety seat (which would be an illegal location for the child seat) in most states. I notice it can unsnap. Maybe for extra keys?.. or a vanity mirror for your extra girlfriend in the back of the car? Ideas??
