Well, I guess they got something right for us US customers. I personally would have liked having the powered mirrors on the ES.

Isn't that how the headlight washer is suppose to work, with activation of the windshield washer? But it doesn't always work? Hum, sounds like a defect.

I would prefer it only activate when I activate it. There is a separate switch for it also.

It's not a defect, there's some sort of criteria as toy when it activates alongside the wipers, as in legnth of time the washer switch is held down, or highway speed, etc. just haven't figured it out yet.

My 350 has wood on the shift ****. I believe it's optional.
