Replaced the guides and springs on my sunroof wind deflector. One broke so I replaced them both while I was at it. Easy fix.

Passenger window switch located on driver door gave up the ghost last week. Popped in a new one today. I installed the new switch in the driver window slot, and moved that switch to the passenger window slot since the driver window switch is used the most. Have had the car out numerous times over the past 2 weeks and each time I'm reminded how joyful it is driving this supple and agile little car. Love it.

Pinned the tie rods on the coupe, and changed the oil. Put the MY02's back on with some new rubber.

Just getting ready for the trip to luftgekuht. Going to re-clear coat the calipers and flush the brakes/clutch.

Let us know how much improvement you notice from pinning the tie rod ends.

The pinning is noticeable but minor, its not life changing, but its definitely worth doing IMO.

Met up with 14 or so other like minded 993 drivers for a 4 day blast around the wild roads of North Wales . . .

New headlight lenses - would be a lot cheaper if you could just buy the plastic part that turns yellow!

My right headlight's plastic piece is yellow too. I think I'll save myself the $$ and just remove the plastic pieces on both sides. Not sure how important that piece is.

Not sure either - I thought about spraying them silver to see what that would look like. These came up on eBay so saved me the hassle

This was actually a few days ago, but caught up with some friends for some damp driving on the Blue Ridge Parkway and tasty BBQ.

Had the car serviced at my local Porsche dealer and filled with Porsche Classic 10-60 oil.
Engine mounts changed, went for the C4 mounts for cost reasons, gear change improved dramatically afterwards so that was money well spent!
