I fixed my passenger visor. It broke off when I was loading a big hockey bag about a year ago. I recently bought a replacement from an R-lister, then went to use USMCs DIY. Turns out that the 'new' visor had a broken clip, and I was about to take USMCs advice and use my old one when I realized that my old visor was fine. Yes, it popped off, but it popped back into the retaining bracket, and it all went together just fine. Now I'm stuck with a spare set if visors. Maybe I'll experiment with them regarding removing the stickers!

I also just got a Durametric pro and played around with some airbag stuff to clear a fault. I still need to work more on that airbag, but I'll save that for later. Next up with Adam coding is the mod where the windows can go up/down with lock/unlock of the car, and I'll disable my seatbelt chime.

Lastly, I fixed a loose connection in my front Rottec DRL LEDs. My Indy shop R/R my front bumper to clean it up, leaves and wires. They zip-tied a bunch of the wire spaghetti mess (DRL, Lasers, etc), but they left too little slack in the DRL wires. I'm glad it was just a loose connection and not a problem with the lights!

 

+1 on the DIY projects Jack. I just got a DM Pro as well. Need to spend some weekend hrs playing with it when I get back in town.

 

Put the hard top on

 

I drove it in 75ºF weather, today. Top down, of course.

 

Installed 7mm/15mm spacers.

 

Softronic flash and a nice drive. Too damn cold to do anything else... I need a heated garage.

 

She was looking bit dirty, bath time!

 

Fister exhaust, love the sound

 

Finally received and installed my rear Michelin Super Sports. WOW what a difference. Like a totally different car from the brand new Rossos I removed.

 

We took a drive up Route 1 to San Simeon to see the Christmas decorations at the Hearst Castle at night. WR's library makes mine so feeble.

 

That is a beautiful castle. I love the Pacific Coast Highway.

 

Congrats on the new exhaust note. I had to show my wife the vid. My C2S is also g-red and I have an FVD exhaust system... but it was the 4 dive tanks along the wall that helped me out with my wife. She has always questioned why I needed so many tanks. Against my wall are 4 steel tanks(2x HP 100s, 2x 72s), a pony bottle, and 2 spare airs... I also keep a steel 63 in Honolulu with my brother. I'd post a pic of the tanks lined up like yours next to my Carrera but I'm currently on Maui... packing up for another dive here.

 

I really like the sound, I find I keep find excuses to drive it just to hear it

Enjoying the diving! It's almost raining enough here to need scuba gear to go outside
