My Camaro will open garage from about 120ft away... my driveway is approx. 250ft, was hoping for the full length!

If you leave the turn signal on while driving the DIC alerts you after a minute or so.

I think the better use for that is when you swing the visor to your left to block the sun coming in through the door window, you can make the visor longer to block the sun coming in from the side

My drive to and from work always faces the sun. I thought the sun visors sucked until I learned that you can pull them towards the rear view mirror. That feature alone is pretty cool.

Some HUD panels are disabled. For example, you can turn on panels which shows how many gallons of fuel have been used, hours driving/idling.

If you have Homelink in an older car it was was made by Johnson Controls which was the company who invented it 20 years ago. They sold their patents to Gentrex 3 years ago, so it's possible any Homelink made after 2013 isn't quite the same.

Can you see it on the HUD?
So far I was able to see it only on the DIC...

If you drive with the back seats down the exhaust sounds louder! (NPP fuse pull and secondary cat delete)

As I was saying, I was trying to choose one of the channels that were listed on the compact view and accidentally swiped to the left. and it moved that current view to the next set of presets. so i was like huh... swipe back. Yup, last set of channels is now what I see in compact view and so on. It always annoyed me swiping up and then covering the radio station information and just looking at that large list of presets. Now, As I found out you can just swipe left and right on your presets and move to the next set, with out taking over your entire screen.

Hope that clarifies.

You can make it harder to stick on by giving the wheels a light polish and then seal them with sealer like Jet Seal and then hit them with some MaxCoat wheel guard or wax of your choice. I don't have much problem with it after that treatment.
