Thanks Henrick,

How's Sweden? Is it beginning to thaw? Should be closing in on Porsche time, no? Did you have that Lt Wt flywheel kit installed yet? Hope your wife, daughter and you are fine. Happy Spring

Thanks again Lads!

Ilko, I've noticed you posting up more frequently recently. Something tells me you are missing the purity of the 964. Are you sniffing around for another?

Your car is a blueprint for where i'd like to take my car eventually as far as mods go. Congrats!

*****UPDATE*****

Installed the manual RSA Aero Mirrors tonight after work. WOW!!! What a nice difference. The car now looks complete. It's amazing how heavy those motorized flags are compared to the RSA Aero's. The car is probably 4-5 pounds lighter. Love em

I'll post updated pics once I install the Mod .07 and H4's and this time with a full tank of fuel. It's interesting to see the front end lower with a full tank of gas (150 pounds of weight there.) When I took the pics, the car was almost bone dry of fuel, and looking higher than I remembered it. Looks awesome with a full tank....

Thanks for the kind words Vandit & JBaker1121.....

did the same as you did last year. The one downer is that the field of vision is significantly reduced compared to the flags. But they look great

ACSGP: Agreed, field is reduced, but a small price to pay.

Kai: I probably won't get to the wheel install until next weekend earliest. We have guests in town this weekend. I'm looking forward to it too!!!

*****UPDATE*****

Completed the installation of the Aero's; the H4's with 55/60 bulbs, and the MOMO Mod .07 cup wheel. All 3 have made a nice difference to the way the car looks, and better yet, how it performs. The Cup wheel is fantastic. It feels the business in my hands, and makes the steering feel more precise, and makes turn in a pleasure. I installed the factory horn contact, and disabled the bags with the factory plug-in. Nice.

The H4's are a nice lighting upgrade, and the chrome rings add that retro feel. I'm still deciding whether to install the white painted rings, or leave the chrome ones uncovered. Maybe I'll post up a pic of one on and one off and get your impressions.

The Aero's look right for the car. The flags look dated, but I think they make the car slightly more aggressive in appearance. I'm happy with the Aero's now.

Hope you are all having a wonderful Easter weekend

I've got a set of the RSA manual teardrops too. Can't decide how to handle the wiring.
Did you disconnect or cut them? The other question is what to do with them, tie them into the teardrops, (capped or?) or drop them to the bottom of the door. And did you pull the mirror fuse?

Looks good from here.

I simply cut the wires and taped a string to them and taped the string to the body under the mirror mount. and pushed the wire cable into the door. I did not pull the mirror fuse, but that's probably a good idea, as long as that's the only function for that fuse.

Kai: It's my favorite mod so far, next to the suspension of course. I love the way it has transformed the steering and control. The suede is the bomb, and looks just right in a more aggressive car! Uber cool...
