I'm wonding that also. They stated the switches moved due to the new 5 speed. So with the auto?

I though they would move all to the doors to just cut the cost of having two setups.

My 07 has the clear sticker where the guard used to be.

Geeze, we're still complaining about the window buttons?

I did, too, but after the second week with the car, I forgot that switches were ever on a door at all. Now, 29,000 clicks later, it seems like they should all be there....

Hope you mean door panels and not handles. Knew the 09 was getting new make-over, hear anything about the body design?

08 has Onstar standard, so does that include the auto-dimming mirror with map lights and compass? Mine has it.
Also, I thought the running boards were standard in 08. At the dealership there was another blue 08 without them.
