Looks like you could replace the windshield to make it legal and you'd fit

AFAIK, the passenger car DPFs are supposed to be lifetime.

As for the DEF, I don't think you guys understood my point. 
I don't want to mess with the jugs, don't want to pour it in the luggage 
compartment. (first generation Chevy Cruze got rid of the spare tire and stuck 
the tank in its place, you need to unload the trunk and lift the floor to fill 
the DEF tank)

I just want to stick credit card in the pump and stick a nozzle in the side of 
the vehicle.
I can't imagine why anybody would buy a bottle of the stuff when they could buy 
it in bulk from a hose at the pump island.
