Don`t forget about that little tab with the string attached just in case you want to get out of your Z the hard way, it opens up the hatchback. Now how neat is that?

in case someone sticks you in the hatch and you have no way of getting out (and climbing over to the driver's seat and opening up the door by unlocking it would happen to be out of the question), then it's useful as hell!

The car is never truly off. For example for the Z roadster(and maybe for the Z coupe as well), the window rolls down a bit whenever you open the door.

An warning to Z roadster owners, don't open the door when you disconnect the battery, you'll rip the weather stripping off

This is pretty funny, but you should really be careful about static discharges when you're at a gas station. I work for an Oil Co. They distributed this video of this poor lady that set fire to her Explorer from a static discharge while she was filling up her tank. Didn't blow the place up or kill her or anything, but f'd up her truck pretty good. Moral of the story, be careful with static. Oh, and the windows are on a delayed cut-off relay that disconnects power after 15-ish seconds. It's not power left over in the lines. No such thing.

If anybody out there is small enough to fit in the trunk of the roadster there is a glow-in-the-dark pull handle that opens the trunk from the inside...

You can fit in the trunk if you are equal to or smaller in size than a golf bag...I love how they have directions on the trunk on how to put in a golf bag.
