The headlight washers were part of a package, or you could get them as a stand-alone option. So I guess youhave neither. Don't worry - you won't depleet (spelling?) your washer fluid that quick.

Some people have mounted their radar detectors in the front ashtray located just next to the Step shifter. But I think they had V1s, which were small enough to fit.

Thanks for the information. I actually don't really care for the headlight washers anyway. I was just curious why I didn't have them.
As for the stereo, you appear correct about not much difference between stock and the DSP. I've been reading all over trying to find out info, and haven't seen a single post that raves about the DSP.
For the radar detector, it looks like I'll just use one of those sticky pads on the dash for now. Better yet, cut the sticky pad to size, then velcro it to the detector itself. That way I don't leave the sticky pad on the dash.
Thanks again.
