Default Differences between the 02 to 03 models

What are some of the differences between 02 and 03 PTs and GTs? I've read no heated mirrors and no cargo net what else? <img src=icon_smile_question.gif border=0 align=middle>

Cruise on!

What about the sun (moon) roof? Is it true it will no longer open all the way with one touch? Sway bar, don't worry, DC says it's in there lol<img src=icon_smile_sleepy.gif border=0 align=middle>

Not sure if this fits into the missing category, but ABS and Traction Control are now 2 separate options on the 2003's. Also you only get one horn instead of 2. Some of the cargo net mounting rings appear to be missing too. To comment on the left storage cover, that was eliminated on the 2002's. Of course you know about the modesty covers, the early 2002's got them and the other half of the 2002's thru the 2003's didn't.

On the positive side, all but the base model now have bumpers painted in the body color.

I believe it was 2002 that they dropped the tint line across the windshield. I know my 2003 Turbo only has the tint above the mirror in the center of the windshield so I get to use my sunvisors much of the time.

Dropping the second horn was DUMB! Now it costs $31 to get the high note horn from Chrysler and 30 minutes to pull the wheel well liner and install it.

Dropping the high note horn is Chrysler's way of saying that they're still clueless to the importance of public opinion if the counters say they can save a bean! (This is for words we not supposed to write here........................)

The front bumper does not have a recessed grove in it , so if you wanted to put on the chrome bumper add on's your screwed, you can however put them on the back, don't know how that would look, just doing the rear and not the front/ ??????

The "missing" passenger lock cylinder is relevant only to power locks.
