Since taking delivery of my ORP last week, I've only found one thing that I really don't like and its fairly minor, the switch for the rear window. It has an auto function, but there's no double click to actuate it like on the door windows. This is annoying for me since I don't want to roll it down all the way and risk my dog jumping out the back. I have to play a timing game to get it to stop where I want it to and it's annoying when I don't get it on the first try.

Also, with it being on the ceiling it would make more sense to me for the directions to be reversed, push the switch up to roll the window up and pull the switch down to roll the window down, but its the same direction as the door windows. If the window switch has separate wires for the up and down signal that could be a straightforward mod.

Totally agree on your comments. I use the rear window a LOT. The switch being backwards is quite strange to me...
Also another small gripe is I wish the rear tailgate would go up with the window cracked.... I understand why, but If it let you do it with the window half way or so it would not be the end of the world for the motors...
 
My switch didn't work at all until about mile 1500 or so. SO annoying that it disables the hatch when the window is cracked.
