Whats the stupid little circle thing on the front bumper on the drivers side, my one big guess is a sensor for the outside temp on the clmate controls....

That's for the frontal firing rocket launcher installation. James Bond style.

It your trunk. Ferrari Style baby. limited space. Nah, from what i've seen its to jack the front end of the car up. I've seen people punch out the cap, stick a special rod in there, and turn it to jack the front of the car up. I think im gonna mount a machine gun in there?

It isn't to jack your car up. It is so you can be "emergency" towed. It is so the car can be pulled by a chain and not rip anything off the bumper. If your stuck in mud or a ditch this allows you to be pulled out.

What he said.

There is an eye hook in the trunk with the spare, pop off the cover on the front of the car, screw in the eyehook in that hole, you can attach a tow cable to the hook

With that tow cabe you can take down AT-AT's by driving circles around them...

What are you guys talking about, that is for when it is cold in the winter, you can pop that cap off and use the bar in the trunk to crank over the motor a few times to get it "warmed up" I would suggest practicing a couple times before then though.

At first I thought it was the knee bag sensor but then read that it was meant for towing. I wouldn't mind having a rocket or two in there, maybe shoot some popo's lol
