Check the driver's door for the VIN sticker. Or isn't there a second cigarette lighter type power outlet on the '04s? The 03s only have one at the back of the center console.

My 04.5 has two power outlets. Besides the one behind the driver, the other is at the bottom of the dash on the passenger side.

Check the 10th digit of the VIN. A "3" represents a 2003 model, etc..

03's stock radio matches the center console better and material of center console feels different. 04's have a black stock radio which stands out from the center console and center console feels different.

At the end of the viser, you pull on them and they extend, not sure if it`s the driver side only.

Weird, cause the 05 should have that feature. Maybe on the coupes only?
