Now I pray for a 928 sport wheel in classic gray, for my 40th, somehow I doubt that will happen.
My 87 has the plastic insert and no airbags, the PO had the dealership change it out for god knows how much.

Strange thing to spend bucks on.

BTW, happy BD, I hope you get the steering wheel and instructions on how to use one.

Got a few days left before I get 'old', and lord knows neither you or I actually get to drive our cars. I just figured it was time mine didn't look like chit when people actually come to me to have work done on them.

Got to set an example or something like that. At least the wife tells me that.

You are right, we do not get to drive these cars hard, and when the chance does come up I find myself not wanting to push that hard, like trying to keep up with AO.

I took the hint the first 400 times you asked for a steering wheel. Maybe we should all pray to the steering wheel Gods that one magically appears in Sean's shop next Wednesday

Got my 928 bible out, nothing in there about the wheel you want. Am I praying to the wrong gods for you?

Sean, while trying to figure out why my gas gauge isn't working properly, I noticed that one of the circled items is just hanging loose under my pod w/tape over the connection? What are these and is this related to my fuel gauge problems?





Thanks.

There will be one extra hanging there. It's an unused connector, and I think it went for the Euro rear fog lamp. I could be wrong on that though.
