Did you know the 928 is "fat and lazy"? 
Ok, sorry for that, but did you know you must not un-weight the suspension prior to an alignment?(.....of course you did.)

In the dash. The rear wire harness doesn't include the euro wires.

Did you know that the adjustable gas pedal has an adjustable linkage that connects it to the metal arm that moves the throttle cable?Originally Posted by Ron_H
OK, can I play too? No I didn't know that the throttle pedal may be adjusted and has three different positions. I don't like the current position because my foot is too upright and I put a cushion under my right thigh to provide support on long trips. Thanks for telling me. Now how may I adjust the throttle pedal position inclination without adjusting the length of the throttle cable? The answer, I presume, is that I must adjust the throttle cable length. Another "to do" list entry for a weekend. I knew about some to Heinrich's stuff, but thanks for sharing it anyway. I don't have any unique contributions of my own, because I dont' know any. I'll need to think about it for awhile.
Did you know the starter bolted directly to the lower bellhousing on the early cars (78-82), then to a braket on the following years?

Did you know that the early doors have provisions for a manual window option? Four bolt holes, one crank hole, and a covered hole in the door panel. There is no part number for the option, however.
(The indent in later doors with exposed speakers took away some of this, but they still have some of the bolt holes.)
