Yeah I did that first on drivers door. Wasn't enough. So I trimmed the plastic.
on the pass door, I did the plastic knob first and that didn't work so well. So did both trims on that side too.

Well, my peeves are:
Breaking my eardrums when back windows down (for my dog). I wonder if those rain spoilers over the windows will help deflect the air.
Cup holders (I just ordered from here: http://www.roxiesshop.com/custom.em?pid=510181 ... after reviewing (I think) a thousand sites. I'll tell you if I've been totally duped or whether they might work.
Door locks hurting my arm (I tried to order from http://www.thehhrstore.com/ after reading an entire thread devoted to how great their Smoothie locks were) but seems they aren't available. Bummer.
Gas tank on wrong side (oh well, the extra walk will do me good but it's not User-friendly)
Arm rest too narrow (I MUST find a solution but nothing popping up yet).
Window height (I will solve with LightInSight I guess).
... and just because there are some things I don't like about the HHR does NOT mean I don't like the HHR. Even our dream man would have something which wasn't perfect. Unlike men (their imperfection IS perfection), not true with man-made items. We mention it because Chevy won't know what to improve if we don't. I design software and I bow to anyone who tells me what isn't perfect for them.

Have had my vents on for nearly 4 years. But if you crack the front windows it will relieve it a bit (got 2 dogs myself).

Thank you. Now the window visor things have been moved down to only whether they make the car look *****en. 
Ooops - I didn't think that word would be bad. My apology! It was a phrase which meant GOOD! Well, instead I'll say then ... "only whether they make the car look rad." Better?

Somebody got a picture of the vents on their HHR?
I'm on the fence as to if it looks good. I know they are functional.. use to run them years ago on cars.
And where's the best online place to purchase?
