Does the 2000 Have a Different Cam?
I thought I read or heard somewhere, that because the 2000 is the only year that used Pup Cats, a different Cam was also used (emissions related?). Any truth to this? Thanks

Must be a California thingi 
I live in upstate New York. Ordered my 2000 new. It came with the pup cats.
Was the passenger airbag 'off' switch an option? My 2000 doesn't have that.....
The cut off switch came later in the model run year. Mine was a late build and came equipped with it.

NYS follows "CA emissions", which explains the pup cats.
