Beautiful pictures! What kind of camera?

I'm sure it's posted somewhere, but how do you get to that menu?

Select Menu > select system info > select version > then click the joystick up up up, dwn dwn dwn, up up, it's there under gps info or something like that.

Thanks for the compliment, i used a nikon d70 with a 50mm 1.8 lens for the pics.

Okay - a little more detail on how it works...btw it shows lots of things...you can even do a wiring check ...do NOT delete the software though :

After you get past the annoying WARNING message click the MENU button on your center console. You will get the choice of "Select Destination" or "Setup Menu".

Choose "Setup Menu"

Then click "Version"

Then choose "System Informat

It will then tell you the version of your GPS software. But here's where you go in the "backdoor".

At this screen, position your center console joystick this way: UP UP DOWN DOWN.

If you've done it correctly, it will go to the "backdoor" you want. (Keep trying if you don't... the joystick has to be pushed up and down pretty briskly but not aggressively. You get the idea.)

By the way, you can get other backdoors if you go:

UP UP UP DOWN DOWN DOWN UP UP DOWN DOWN, or

UP UP UP DOWN DOWN DOWN UP DOWN

Nice Pictures. First time I have see the exhaust finishers and I like them - just not at the price... Now, get thee some paint on those calipers and you will have an even nicer ride.

I like how the Ti Gray looks on the 2nd and 3rd pics. You chose some of the best angles of the car too. What kind of wax do you use on your Ti Gray?

How the hell did you figure that out? Is it in the manual...?
