    Yeah, here's a zoomed out shot of a spy photo... It definitely looks like they went with an open area dash like the Gen II, with a cup holder in the same spot as the Gen II. Looks like a Gen II non connected dash, but with the Gen III tray on the bottom.

    I didn't notice it before but.. there's a sliding cupholder now? That probably tells me that there's only going to be one cupholder in the middle where that walkie talkie is... maybe they got rid of the console cupholder.

    That dash design isn't bad... open concept of the Gen 2 but with the storage capability of the Gen 3 (i.e. the tray)

    I was thinking along the same lines. I was also thinking "Entertainment so great that the entire world will sing and dance in joy!"

    I didn't want this thread to turn into the three-days-to-load "Political Cartoon of the Day" thread.

    Today's installation will leave you breathless, I'm sure. Especially you, The Electric Me :tongue1:.

    I'm more interested in seeing what's happening behind the driver's seat, i.e how many kids could I haul around.

    We already have the top left corner piece. I don't see any significance in these pieces. :confused:

    The first piece looks like the driver side seat and the second piece looks like the dash drawer handle.

    Are we supposed to rotate them?
