Haha! Nah, that's me. I like to troll the 996 forum looking for fights. :troll:

No much today, just attached my Deltran Battery Tender quick disconnect to the battery. Makes connections easier charging the Battery.

The other day I installed my new Conti drive belt from Pelican Parts. I noticed it was made in Romania. That's different! Most things today are made in CHINA.

That's amazing you were able to switch the crest like that. I didn't think it was possible.

It took me a while to get around to it. How long ago did you send it to me? More than a year ago, I think.

It was actually really simple. Judging by the weight and how soft the metal was, I assume it is aluminum. Is was very easy to squeeze the flattened end of the post back into round.

Thanks again!

P.S.: if you ever come across a black and silver crest (no red), let me know!

Is that what I have (see picture)?

I have never seen another one like it - what makes this one so special? Was it part of some sort of an odd option package, perhaps? Or what?

Thanks - DM
