Hope this helps.....I was just in LI yesterday. I have a project at Roosevelt Mall. When you see the new skylights think of me.

thanks,keeo them coming !most placements are a little diff(of the stickers)hard to say if there was a rhyme or reason or just depended on who was working on that part of the line that day?or its more like year dependant as to the placement. any way just trying to make it correct....thanks for the input....p.s. my car is a 2003.

Where can you buy the stickers? Mine is oem lid but installed after the fact.

Here is my 2003 XAA. For those paying attention my car is the identical twin to this one seen here on Rennlist. Both cars are identical in color and options. Mine is completely original with 19k miles.

It is interesting to note that Sneaky Pete's car has the Mobile 1 sticker on the spot where the part number on mine is located. I wouldn't think the factory would put a sticker on top of it.

Also you can see the engine air inlet on my car inside the wing is finished. Torontoworker's is not and has mesh inside that mine does not.

Either these are production variances or are these possible not factory XAA cars?

I can confirm mine was a OEM XAA kit. The difference is this...mine was a MK1 Aero (Taco) and Randy's and your car are MK2's (no Taco but a double decker). MK1 taco's have an embossed "made in France" on the right side and it looks like the MK2's were made in Switzerland. Not to sure why the sticker placement is different but I'm sure a good body shop or even the PET could tell you where the proper placement of the stickers go. And.....something else to think about is maybe your stickers are in the wrong spot or your decklid was replaced at some point. Who knows..

I built an aluminum air diverter on the inside of both vents that rams the air into the plastic OEM air cleaner and as a result I fabricated a stainless steel debris screen for both upper intake slots.
