Upgraded the mostly useless sport chrono timer to a VDO clock in my 997.1 C2S. I'm liking this so far and its completely reversible.

Just so I understand. Your current warranty is a Fidelity policy but you're not getting credit for what remains of it towards a new policy? Is that what you're dealing with? If it is, I've been there and who sold the current policy played no role in the deal. Fidelity recognized that I had a current policy with them and gave me credit for what remained of the current policy towards the new policy.

This is the service lane of the Mercedes Benz dealership where I work, lol. Would love a tile floored garage like that one day, though!

Installed a new carbon fiber and leather steering wheel purchased from a fellow RL member solow . Such a big difference and looks great! Now I'm on the hunt for a nice new shift boot to match. Anyone have any recommendations?

Looks great.

I have a 997 black leather shift boot available in my parts cabinet. If you're interested, shoot me an email to petza914@gmail.com and I'll send you some pictures. $60 via PP F&F including USPS priority mail shipping.

I’m not as strong as I used to be, the thought of lifting a rear wheel onto my roof at the end of a track day seemed like it could be a bridge too far. The trailer is fine and tows well.
