Hey! Few updates!
I recently added a few items to the spec list:
* OEM front and rear parking sensor. At lot a work, but totally worth it!
* Cruise control, installed at the dealership.
Today I did a little DIY project that I'd like to share. Backstory: I broke that little lever on the interior rear view mirror that manually makes it dimmer at night. Wouldn't it be nice if I installed the auto dimming version, I thought... Some people did it already in this forum, but I don't like the idea of messing around with the windscreen, In case something goes wrong I would like to be able to undo everything and keep it as before. Then I found a really cheap auto dimming mirror and decided to adapt it to the old school mount.

The final result is not as good as OEM for sure, but it was really cheap and it is easily reversible. I'll be mounting the mirror on the car tomorrow morning, hope everything goes well!
