I'm in the East Bay, Oakland Hills near the Zoo. In all seriousness if anyone in my area wants to use my set up I have zero problem with it. If you bring a cool car even better, if you bring a 73 911 I might do it for you, very curious about that car and would love to sit in one to see if I fit.

You’ll have no problem fitting, I’m 6’2” and can fit. Just curious what cabinet are you using for your set-up? I assume you just punched out mounting holes?

Awesome set-up!!!

it's a new age pro cabinet, the pro series is important as it's deeper than the bold. As for fitting, I'm 6'6" so hard to say for sure. I mounted the entire system on the wall, then marked all locations for plumbing, electrics, vacuum pipe, etc. once all installed I transferred all to the cabinet and punched holes, then removed all and mounted. Cabinet then re installed it all. In theory it was easy, in practice it was a serious pita.

Sonax Wheel Cleaner > Break Buster?

Curious to hear your thoughts.

Did you apply a ceramic coating on your 992? If so, which brand?

Don't really have a strong opinion on the sonax wheel cleaner vs break buster. The Car has full PPF and Ceramic but honestly I can't remember the brand as it was grabbed from the dealer and done before I picked it up a year ago.

To stop noisy windshield wipers, first wash windshield with a few drops of dawn dishwashing liquid in a bucket of water,
then squeegee the excess with a silicone squeegee.
Then to stop the wipers from chattering, get a washrag and impregnate it with WD40
You will find a significant amount of black debris will come off with your wipe and any wiper noise will be gone.
