If you think access is difficult when removing the transmission - try it on one of these........ask me how I know....
No difference in final drive.

Yes, my S2 cabrio is US spec and has this light too. Doesn't look bad, although I prefer the clean lid on the Euro car.

The 1991 model year had some other unexpected features, like the central locking module supposedly near the passenger side footwell (I'll be looking for it this weekend) and the 968 speedometer internals instead of the earlier kind.

Just what you need when you can't be bothered to rebuild your worn, nosiy transmission...

Just replaced some of the bulbs in that third brake light, special order and a bit tricky to remove.

What a great photo. It's strange seeing an identical car to mine (black and classic gray interior) in RHD version. Thanks for posting it!
