If you haven't looked at the Optimum Spray Wax I'd highly recommend that as well... as easy to apply as the quick detailer and it really amps up the shine + slickness. I'm not ashamed to share that I waxed my car 3 times in 2 months, when you can wax the entire car in 15mins or so why not!

As for coatings, my car has Opticoat Pro and from what I gather it works quite well with other Optimum products... no complaints from my end and from my experience everything works well together.
Thanks I also have Opticoat Pro on the BMW.
The reason I asked was because I have No Coating on the Porsche since I have no idea how long I would keep this before trading. Sounds like the Optimum Spray Wax should work well in this case.

Looking forward to your winter/snow pics!

I've been thinking of getting one of these to have switches to turn Nav-TV cameras on. Are the extra switches simple on/off switches? I wonder why they ask for the car's vin number. The GT3 does not have or need that center section. Maybe the console switch assembly is different if ordered for a GT3. I may need to start a new thread on this application.

Thanks for the link. Looks like it's more complicated than I was hoping for.

You're welcome, and I agree it is more complicated than expected, although certainly doable if you are comfortable working with electronics.

This is something that Porsche should have done from the factory! I think it even saves MPG since it's LED...

....Said absolutely every Porsche owner since 1998 and the 986/996 came out ;-)
I think they do it on purpose, to sell you another part right off the bat ! Wiedeking bought himself a nice retirement home in Austria with all your combined smoked turn signals ;-)
