Thanks, I finding out as I get more familiar with my purchase that the car has some cool options and mods. I got the car with 46K miles at a very good price and now discovering my deal was even better than I thought

Litronic (low beams)
Pioneer rear speakers (I have upgraded again further to gain bluetooth and more with a Kenwood 998 HU and will also upgrade the door speakers for more bass)
mid pipe cat delete
Pedros exhaust mod (sounds fantastic)
ROW M303 suspension
LN IMS bearing replacement

I am going to do a front motor mount (already have the new one) when I get a day off and I also added the necessary for Colorado seat heaters (a PITA and my guy is still trying to get the factory switches to work)

Overall just a great car, with a lovely driving experience especially on my canyon roads where I live, that raspy exhaust note reverberating off the cliff sides as I finally get to live out my Le Mans 917 fantasies (grinning like an idiot!)

Nice looking car enjoy the canyons. I've never heard of someone adding seat heater interested in how that goes.

Thanks, the seat heaters are in and working, you do have to remove the seats and pull of the seat covers to install them, I am lucky to have a talented custom stereo guy as a good friend. He has installed heaters many times in all types of high end cars. The issue is that the factory switches are momentary switches so the require a special type of relay to work (which he has had to order.) I have them working now with the aftermarket switches but I want the factory ones of course!
