Ok, I compiled all of the excellent suggestions re what to check when picking up your car. Owners, help us make sure this is complete. Thanks!
Body/Wheels/Misc:
Check Paint work
Check Glass
Check the wheels for scratches
Check Starshield install
Check Headlight alignment
Make certain that your steering wheel is dead center when the wheels are straight
Radio:
Make certain it can pickup both AM and FM
Blaupunkt box with the manual, wire removal tools, extra not used wiring harness. Waranty cards and a little black box to put the radio faceplate in and the microphone to adjust the sound for the radio All in the box.
Electrical:
Check battery cables - make sure secure
Make sure the gas gauge is working properly
Make sure it has:
Little tool holder with velcro containing one towing eye
Two allen wrenches
Locking lug adapter
Lug spline key
Owners manual
Soft top and Bag
Paper from alarm company.
Two keys +AND two fobs
folded paper card with manual alarm codes (should you lose your fob).
Duplicate key blank and a little black barcode type plastic thing that you would need to use if you want to have extra keys made.
