Was it June that figured out what that odd plastic knob on the side of the passenger seat headrest is for? If I recall, for the accessory blindfold that your front seat passenger can put on when they're scared by how fast your driving?
No you are thinking of the sunvisor and the New Yorkie Times! June

Does the accessory headrest pillow have speakers that play soothing ocean beach sounds for your passenger that's hiding under your suit jacket?

Ah Ha!

Careful with that shop vac or you can lose a nut! :shock: ...a 'carpet nut' that is.

Hey, that's what Volvo calls it, don't look at me.
