I know there are other posts out there, but the search function is not working for me. Anyway, I was adjusting my HID to raise it higher and realized the screwdriver in the tool pouch that came with the car is interchangeable. It can be both a Phillips or flat head.

Should be next to the spare tire. It's the same bag as the lug wrench and wheel lock key.

The concept of a reversible screwdriver has been around forever. My 1974 Porsche 914 had one.

Hey you know what I just learned... If you leave the vanity mirror cover open on the sun visor (and the little light above it comes on) and you push the sun visor all the way towards the windshield, the vanity light turns off. I dont know if it turns off if you fold it back up though. Might.
