Or was that the cut off before they did drive by wire?

it has the 2000 exterior.. still nDBW, still the concert HU.

rear badges were moved down, the side markers were changed, and most importantly the front lower fascia with integrated fogs

there's more detail in the FAQ about it.

Updated (2000 and up style) dash...but still single DIN radio...

Also had the cig lighter as part of the lower center console...instead of in the ashtray.

simple, if you have fog lights in the lower part of your front grille...

you're a 99.5

also, if your badges are mid-trunk, you're a 99.5

if you don't have lower fogs, and your badges are on the upper portion of the trunk, you have a 99
