Do you find the plastic used for your dash board and around your front seats to be very fragile? The plastic on the bottom of my front seats cracks really easily and I feel if something was to hit my dash it would crack easily. It feels very thin. Do D2's have the same problem?

The only two issues I've had with the plastic trim is the under-seat storage area. The area around the two screws in front that attach it to the carpet is too small and breaks. Bit it's not a high-strength joint. A little silicone fixed that problem. And the front opening/door continually gets kicked in by passenger's feet. To it's credit, it just gets pushed it and is easily pulled out and reseated. Hasn't broken in the year and a half I've had it.
