Default Handy Tricks I Have Learned - "did you know" features

I created this video with my G, but most of it applies to the Z.

I'm sure you all know most of these.

I'd love some feedback to see if these types of videos are helpful.
Did I miss anything?

Wow those are pretty cool. I probably didn't know 50% of those things. Good contribution, and vids/pics are always a bonus.

wow I knew a few of those but not the silent beep. I gotta do that.

Also I wish I had power seats. Having memory programmable seats would be awesome.

I'm pretty sure all of those tricks have been mentioned at one point or another throughout the forum (and common to all Nissans/Infinitis), but providing a video that compiles all of those features makes this repost worth it. Plus, most of the current members haven't been on this forum long enough to know about those old threads so it all works out. Thanks for the post + video.

BTW, welcome to My350Z.com!

wow pretty cool, didnt know about the stealth alarm. After you hold both buttons down and it the lights flash without making a sound, can you undo it by pressing both buttons down again? Or is it permanent? Also, do all g's come with memory seats? Or did you buy them separately, thanks.

Great video. You should have ended it with the simple reminder - all of this information (plus more) is in your owners manual. Take the time to read it.
