Swapped in the spare A/C-Hazard-Door lock panel.
Never liked how hot the A/C button got from that filament bulb so I in went an LED.
The cool blue LED is not as bright as the stock bulb but the button doesn't turn into a finger warmer either.
Didn't touch the warning/door lock/seat belt bulbs in that panel. Porsche thought it wise to solder the bulbs on those slots.

Thanks Sean! Miss being around you guys...
Funny story on Ruby's "burble". I put the cap on the RH muffler outlet last night out of deference to Deb. It robs me of 7 HP, but I'm a team player. Well, I went for my drive, and the steel mount tabs were busted off when I got back-no more cap. I guess it didn't like the back pressure on my morning drive.
She'll sound most excellent driving up the coast....

The car...well the car is an exercise in patience...So, the engine is in and except for a couple things it's pretty much ready to fire up...Muhahaha, yeah, right. Thought I would put back some of the interior and electrical so I wouldn't fry anything.
So after crawling in and out of the car, which is still on jack stands, I see a small puddle under the right front passenger side. I crawl under and it's leaking out the the passenger steering rack boot. The damn car has never run in my ownership and all of a sudden the rack starts to leak. It's been sitting in my garage for almost 10 months and it decides to leak now??? Mother!
Lemon Hart time...it ain't gonna help, but it sure won't hurt

I think I've watched 4 hours of "Heavy: The story of Metal" on VH1classic. It's been a good afternoon.

Spent the day at a European car show with Greg. Great people, great cars and perfect weather.
Here's a couple shots the 928's

Sterling's a great guy. I don't really know why you guys all pick on him.
And yes. It sorta looked like that. But with pretty wheels.

Sterling's car is a icon...which means he is obsessive compulsive, has too much money or, my pick, is a COMMITTED 928 enthusiast!
Still, I wish I had Sterling's commitment (money)
