Default with 03's what is the verdict on remote windows (sunroof ) up/down and pinch protection

when I first bought my car I was told it would disable pinch. now I did a search and you ppl are saying otherwise.

Why would you want to disable pinch?

Default If you use the remote up/down pinch is disabled.

But even if you have remote up/down enabled and you just use the buttons from the inside pinch protection is there, it's only disabled when you roll up the windows from the remote or from the key in the driver's door.

Default absolutely wrong sorry dude, i have the remote window control and i have

pinch protection even when i use the remote. depends on the codes you use. when i had mine done at a GTG we tested it to make sure we used the correct code. And sure enough skibum himself stuck his arm in the window and it rolled back down

Default I wasn't brave enough to try it, I just went with what the general consensus has been......

The dealerd and AoA sell the cars with the feature disabled allegedly because of the lack of pinch protection when using the remote.

Sounds like they're all wrong and hiding behind a false defense.....
