What's the fascination with rear blinds Had one in an Omega and only found it useful if I didn't like the look of the bugr following me!

Everything's a gimmick if you don't like/use it.

I have heated seats in three cars and they have ever been used. Similarly, cruise control in two that's never been used in anger but it's nice to have it there despite the lack of use.

I do think that puddle lights, light rings etc. are a total gimmick.
