The AC controls are not of an 05, so yeah, 03 sounds about right.

Door jam sticker clearly said 03. -____-

Dkano is right, the dash is completely the 03/04 style. 05s had the brushed aluminum trim, and different controls, ie. turn **** for ac and stereo instead of a circular volume rocker thing.

I thought the clocks were separate from the center display on the 03/04's?

looks like gray plastic to me. our 05s+ is brushed aluminum.

03/04.


look at the ac and volume controls...not a ****. and compared to this pic - you'll see the diff between gray plastic and brushed aluminum finishes - not to mention the ac and volume controls are actual turning *****.

05+


I can't be the only one that can tell the difference?

EDIT: LOL. I see you're point about the clocks separated now. did someone really put an 03/04 din in an 05?

^I saw the door trim shine so I automatically thought it was aluminum.
