Here in Wisconsin I drive only 3.5 miles to work, but when I thumb that button on starting the car on winter mornings the heater has my steering wheel toasty warm by the time I leave my neighborhood. I like this even more than the heated seats; it really beats driving with gloves. I could take or leave the ski bag and headlight washers - you have to be on a pretty long trip for the headlights to get that filthy to reduce their effectiveness (and I hate how they spray all over the hood too....). I've thought about replacing the ski bag with that OEM storage module but I've heard it's pretty much worthless for usable space. My 2 cents...
Wow that has to be illegal tint in WI. And WI is in the snowbelt---it was 80 degrees at 8:00 AM this morning driving into work.
