Yea lots of snow out this way this year in Dec and early Jan. However, the main roads are now dry, and most of the side roads too. I saw both a 911 and a Cayman the other day on the road. Since I had my TTS trucked to my place, I only put 'storage' insurance on it, and have not registered it yet. But if the weather stays good I may just put it on the road sooner rather than later.

oh yeah. Did the same last night. Optimum no rinse and Rim Job wheel wax last night. Adams detail spray in the interior. Waiting for my 65deg drive home from work today with the top down in Southwest VA.

Any my comments on using a detail spray over the Xpel. ?

Suncoast Parts. It was $357.00. Not cheap, but in my opinion, worth it.

Why did the price of this jump from $357 to $525????http://www.suncoastparts.com/categor...oINTERICC.html
My dealer is charging me $500 I think..........................

Dry Fri, Sat and Sun here so I''ll spend the weekend behind the wheel. I've got drive in and out undergound storage about 200 yds from home. I'm a snowmobiler so I'm conflicted!

Terry, I have the t-design phone holder, it works well. Just keep the extra shims. When the warmer weather arrived, with expansion/contraction, it slide down. Added a shim and it's perfect now.

I couldn't resist after seeing yours so I ordered a pair. Easy question for you. How long did it take to get the mats? I'm being quoted 3-4 weeks.

Sounds about right. Not sure if that is their standard lead time, or if they get backed up over the holidays so its longer this time of the year, but that was my lag as well.

Default Mats and cup holder

All season mats and the Ultimate cupholder. Got tired of sitting my bottle on the passenger seat. My HydroFlask metal bottle too heavy and tall for the dash holder. I put it on the passenger side for three reasons.
1. I don't have to see it.
2. Easily reachable
3. Didn't want to continuously bump into it.
