Default 2002 Vs 2003 Interior Wood Trim

Hi,

Can someone please confirm that the 2002 SC430 has more Wood Trim than the 2003. I believe the 2002 has wood around 4 more areas?

Both of the A/C Vents next to the Driver and Passenger Door Windows have Wood?

Wood around the Security/Mirror adjustment?

Wood around Instrument Dimmer switch?

If so, I wonder why they took it off the 2003? Save cost? I like the additional Wood!

B-

Hi,

Here is a picture I found, It is a 2002, built in 2001. Interesting, but looks to me as if they made a change!

Agree that is a custom add on and not necessarily a good looking one.

....thats an after market kit than can be bought & they offer them in the same colors, as the factory wood. If I remember correctly, you can buy a full kit (about 15 pieces) or half kit (6 pieces). I've been planning to buy the half kit, just to add the wood to the door lock area
