@smrpr Here's the interior LED kit that I used, I've been quite pleased with it in the 3 years I've had them installed.

You're going to love those 991 DRLs, just make sure you've got a voltage regulator in the circuit or your car is gonna throw an error code at you. The lights will still function normally but your car will give you a rapid turn signal flash on your dashboard as though you've got a burned out indicator bulb.

Shouldn't those have built in resistors?

ah yes, okay here is the gummy bear secret. First you have to buy Haribo BUT do NOT buy the ones from the US, buy the ones from Germany (you can do this on Amazon) they are by far the better flavor!!

@BRN9121 Some do not, it seems to depend on the manufacturer. I've had two identical sets and the first came with resistors while the second did not.

Damned Straight!! I was born in Germany and my grandmother always had a stash for us. Going back this summer so I’ll get my fill.

Thank you for clarifying what type of gummie bears you were eating, I was going to suggest not working on the car when eating certain gummie bears. (Kidding of course)

After polling the Rennlist brain trust, I ordered up a set of Numeric Racing pedals and got around to installing them today.


It looks like the weather might be warm enough on Sunday to take the car out and give the pedals a test.

installed new coco mats

always liked the coco-look but gotta say i'm very impressed with the weight, quality and craftsmanship -- seems like a major upgrade from the stock mats i purchased a little over a year ago
