996 on Wheeler Dealers tonight

[Burg Boxster]

Watched.

Laughed at a couple of tidbits...

Shop recovered rear console and armrest lid in stitched leather for a mere $600... Wow - must've done for promotional trade as shop sells JUST armrest lids for 9x6s at $289 ea and a 997 center console will run you $1,789

Even funnier, sort of, was Ant's comment about the new clutch he installed. Specifically, [sic] it's now good for another 30k, depending on whose driving Mike or him. WHAT?!?!? Hit DVR rewind twice just to confirm

For the love of Pete, someone - anyone please teach them how to drive manual if only getting ~ 30k out of a new clutch and flywheel.

All in all, decent entertainment and glad to see a non-repeat show on the 'new' MotorTrend TV. Of course, now it's a repeat episode for those who didn't watch first airing

LN IMS Solution dual row. Unfortunately, they skipped more steps than they showed, so is was a bit of a "Reader's Digest" version of how it is done.

It would have been nice if they'd have shown Ant locking down the engine before the removal. I understand they only have 40 some min of content and can't show everything, but the could have cut out a min or two of them driving around mountain roads to make room for a key step in the process.

Stuff like this is exactly why so many DIY's go horribly wrong. Over the years, we have seen more than our share of installs that when south simply because they did not follow the explicit instruction steps. If you are going to publish or post short cut videos, you should take ten seconds to explain that time constrains prevent showing all of the necessary steps, if for no other reason than to save some totally unnecessary grief and expense.
