I remember seeing an ap2 at a dealership I think was 06 but it had ap1 headlights/tail lights. People are probably striping things before trade in or lease, maybe dealers don't notice the difference ?

I stand corrected.

It has DBW, and the 08-09 gauge cluster on it.

The guy must have known what he was doing.. he took off all the $$ parts...

He probably collected about $2k cash from trading with older model year parts.

Kinda smart I suppose
