thanks, tried it couple of times and somehow got it in, although it does take a significant amount of force to put that seat back into its place. but the question remains. What is that thing really for?

Search around for the DIY gas gauge fix. It involves cleaning both floats in the gas tank. They apparently can get pretty gunky and not send the proper voltage when full.

Yours looks slightly different than mine, but on my 06 that little button will pop up red to alert me that the back seat isn't properly latched. Essentially on a hard stop the seat can fold forward.

It's probably both, but the lens is definitely amber. You can swap that out, there should be a writeup on it in the DIY section.

I'm no vet but I think you have to check the genital area, someone might have to double check.

My engine is starting to drop RPMs on a cold start for a second and then goes back. Starts fine, roars for 4 seconds and then its like a wtf was that? Maybe its always happened but since its cool and Im walking back inside to let it warm, I hear it from the exhaust better. Anyone else notices this?

Most stores will sell lens cleaner but I've had better luck just using car polish and elbow grease. You could always try the wet sanding route if they're super yellow.

How big of an RPM drop are we talking?
Try taking a video clip next time you do a cold start so we can see/hear

It went 1800 to 1600 back to 1800. Sounds worse than what it is
