Umm, i know that it should have a black leather interior, the floor mats should have a "10AE" emblem on them (similar to the fender badges), and it should have a Momo steering wheel with "10th AE" on the horn area. Besides that i don't know what else.

Should have a unique key - numbered and a leather molded shifter.

im pretty sure, it has the all black leather interior, sunroof, 10ae emblems, 10ae steering wheels. although i dont have the 10ae carpet or key. i did check the vin and it was inbetween the range of 10ae vins.

can someone upload a picture of the headlight sprayers and where the switch would be? it hasnt rained ever since i got the car so i havent really fiddled around with it much.

Its the headlight cleaner switch.. the one that pops your headlights up (without them being ON). Push it in.

i removed the squirter system and swapped cluster surrounds. just seems too silly of an idea for me!
