Andy - 2mm magnets can't be an easy diy. Especially if they are hidden under something. You are pulling my leg right? If not then I'll let my Indy's accountant check this out... she sure got longer tools (finger nails) than mine.

Hey Don, ok, I'll fill in when I find out. Not the type of wheel-weight you need on a trip out of town. Keep that "Press Stick + Twist Key" trick in mind. (Been a while bud, good to see you here!)

You need that RAID steering wheel with the paddle shifters, super cool... 145 more horsepower

Did you disconnect the shifter linkage from the transmission ? Sometimes the pivot pin on the tranny becomes corroded and seizes. Simple fix.Clean the pin with emory cloth reconnect.Or it could be the ignition switch. They can cause these problems too.

Hey Fred, I thought about the change over (+145 HP would be exciting), but I have that option straight from the factory.

Sorry for the poor quality of the photo (low light and poor flash).
