Just completed a 5700 mile trip in 10 days, 97~% interstate @ 70 ~ 110 mph.
I installed a windows tint film at the start of my trip as a temporary windshield protection. I removed it afterwards and found full of marks and several tiny holes. My windshield did not get any damages I can see.
I changed my oil/filters before the start of the trip, porsche classic 10w-60 with 2 Ceratec cans.
Should I change my oil/filters again?
I got it from Amazon.

I could not get the link working correctly.
I just completed 5000+mile trip and it was very useful although it does not look best.
My wife driving in this pic.
I put some tapes to protect the seat covers on the sharp edges.
I don't plan to keep it in that position long time as I noticed a slight indent on the seat cushion.
I bought these for my trip and rated.
V1G2 saved me 2 couple times.
Cup holder was cheap and most useful.
Sun visor was good but I did not use as much as I thought because I drove from 8am to 7pm.
Neck pillow was good when I adjusted not too tight and turned 90° when wearing.
Window film saved my fairly new windshield glass.

Another item I used on the trip was a Porsche vinyl bra that the prev owner gave me. Not a modern solution for paint damage prevention but it works.
I may look into magnetic car bra but I am concerned at 110 mph.
Reconnected recirc vacuum servo under dash. Realized varioram wasn't coming on and had recently done some CCU work. White hose came disconnected some how. All is good now.
Can you be a little more specific about the location of the hose or have a pic to share?
I want to make sure mine is in place.
Thanks.
That looks fantastic!. What brand of tape and width did you use?
I got the tape from Autozone. They only have 1 carbon tape in my local store.
I recently did 5700 mile trip in 10 days 50° ~ 105° at upto 110mph and the tape survived but with some loose end because I did not wrap around enough on the passenger side.
I had to pop out the "curtain" so that I could install the tape. It took me few tries to install the curtain back on the tail because I forgot to take pics.

200 miles of country roads and twisty hwy for lunch at an iconic spot in CA. A great day in the 993...coolest part was that it all started by dropping my daughters of at school in the car.
Try this coastal road if you have a chance. 👍
It was a memorable drive.
Pics from my trip Exciting curves at 50 to 80+ Whao! I did pretty good on this photo, IMO. Glad that I never stayed on that island. Oregan Costal highway! USA More curvy steep hills up and down.
