I've been a regular on this site for about a year now, and owned my TSX for 6+ months, and yes I read the manual (quickly) after I got my car...
Anyway, I don't ever recall seeing it mentioned here, so I'll mention it. When you press the passenger window control disable button on the driver's door, the lights on all the passenger window buttons go out, indicating that the switch is inactive. I assume this only happens at night, when the parking lights or headlights are on.
I was browsing the TL site and came across a thread that talked about it. No big deal, but kinda cool. I had to try it out to believe it.

<--- bored so he went into the trunk to take pics. Damn imagestation is slow as chit so I'm waiting to host. I was hoping someone would be walking past the car when I popped out but no such luck :P
Here we go
proof that I'm in there and didn't just leave the camera on a timer
It's not the best pic of the glowing switch but its only in the mid 20's out and I was too cold to sit there with the flashlight on it to make it glow then sit there and get a good long exposure shot

Just another feature I never noticed before. My daughter was trying to use the seatbelt in the back of the car and couldn't get it to click shut. Then she realized that there were two buckles there one for the outside passenger and one for the middle and she was using the "wrong" one. When she tried the other one it worked on the first try. I guess the buckle is designed to be specific to the "right" seatbelt.

You can also roll over while your in the trunk and pull the straps to let the seats down if you want to get out that way.

I just noticed today that when the passenger window disable button is pressed, even the driver can't open or close those windows! What's the point of that???

However, the light on the mirror adjuster doesn't go out when it's set to the middle (disabled) position. I do like the fact that the square joystick button lines up with the cardinal directions in either enabled position.
