I now have FULL control of the retractable spoiler. "Muuuahahahahaaa.."
Yes! That's next up on my things-to-do list! I hope it's as easy as it looks.

First drive of any distance since R&R of engine/transaxle with new LWFW, clutch, plugs/wires, filters, etc...

Sure revs nicely with LWFW- interesting mechanical noises off idle...

LEDs outside, front and back...orange leds for the clear front indicators are fantastic. Increasing my visibility to the distracted drivers of So Cal is always a worthwhile proposition. Thanks Tore Bergvill.

Function-First Shift **** - Arguably the best mod I have done in the first month of ownership. Shifting is markedly better than the shift lever the previous owner installed; fits in the hand well and has a great feel. I hold the shifter at the top of the **** instead of the side of the lever as I tended to do with the smaller one.

Porsche Classic Radio Navigation System with SiriusXM - my driver's side tweeter sounded like it was blown out with my CDR-210, and the other front speakers sounded ratty. It is now putting out proper sound instead of just static. 100% improvement with this system and it is plug-n-play. I won't lie, It is tight under that dash running all of the wires and the seat get in the way as I contorted myself into a pretzel for an hour or so and got it all installed cleanly. Removing the glove box was the hardest part. Bluetooth pairing and streaming are seamless, SiriusXM radio initiated within 2 minutes after adding the radio to my existing account, and the NAV functions as well as any other. Worth every penny.

Where did you mount the Sat Antennae?

Installing The Pad Keeper, LEDs in place of the driving light bulbs, and the door pocket reinforcements while my rear decklid and bumper are off being painted.

Steven,

Really nice build that you're working on there. I see you're doing an RS carpet install. I'm also in the middle of this project. You've got mail.

Love it bruh. I've closely monitored my oil temps and even with the spoiler down temps stay cool. I'm still going to install an oil fan override switch before it gets hot and muggy here.

Thank you! All of 40k miles on the clock and out for a run up in the hills on the SF Peninsula, heading out to the coast.
Thanks to the guys at FD Motorsports for the PSS10 install that provide the correct profile.
