OK, Things to check when I pick up my new SS,

1.) Fuse's are pushed in all the way.
2.) Chicklet's are on level.

And Yes, I am going to be MORE Anal then SSROADSTER is......

Imagine that - a lazy Mexican

I removed mine a long time ago... no need for that 80's Cimmaron look.

Me thinks that Jay Budget is having SS envy... He mentioned something similar in another HHR SS thread.

you guys have made me aware of something I never even thought of:
GM does not stand for General Motors..., it's the abbreviation for "gum."

This a supervisory problem at the plant that builds your vehicle. He should be making sure that the employee is using the proper equipment to install the chicklets instead of "freehanding" the procedure. I have seen it done firsthand in the Oshawa plant as well. Even the employees on final inspection should have noticed this in the plant before the vehicle rolled off the line!
It was probably right after siesta time and he still had a little sleep in his eyes.

Probably the same guy that left two of my large underdash connectors dangling instead of pushed onto the retention brackets. Had to disconnect them, untwist the cable and plug them back in to get them properly secured. Upper left driver's side footwell if you want to check. (Apology for being off original topic, but hardly worth a new thread).
