Did you reinstall the decklid fan" When I removed my fan for a couple of days the 3rd brake light warning popped up. Turns out if you just plug in the harness it will go off. I had no idea that harness connector affected the brake light.

Installed the GPS wheel adapter, fiddly but OK. Was going to enable the multi wheel, but my Foxwell NT530 is not functioning at the moment.
Trial fitted 991.2 MF wheel. This is a MT car, so I may have to fit the PDK steering column control module (the Horseshoe) which is MF capable.
For guys who choose the non MF wheel, the horn works without any changes or activation of options etc.
I'm yet to source an airbag.

Close, but so far. Need AB & perhaps Column Module.

Took her out to the first Caffeine & Gasoline of the season at Griot’s Garage. Few Porsches but plenty of other interesting cars, sort of made mine stand out more!

Nicely done and you gave me some ideas too. Thanks for that. You got it covered except as you say the center muffler. Going by the pictures it looks like you have PSE so don't delay on the Sharkwerks install. You won't believe the difference.

I did reinstall the fan. I’ll check further after work. I believe I just unplugged the plug to the original lifting spoiler.

That plug needs to be plugged in. My warning light went off after a bit of driving after I plugged mine back in. I had no idea it affected the 3rd stop lamp.

There's only 1 plug from the spoiler into the car - and that controls the spoiler raising mechanism obviously .. decklid fan, the engine-bay light (if your car has this along with the fan) and the brake light. Even if not for brake light, you should plug it in for the sake of the fan.

That's awesome. You had me for a second when I read it in my email before opening the post. That's really cool looking. The wheels are spot-on.

Get ready - you're going to be making one of these...

Today I installed Rennline semi-solid engine mounts in my 2009 C4S 6MT. Drove it a bit and didn't notice any additional NVH.
