    If your a BMWCCA member you will get a discount. But I think I would be complaining to the owner.

    Look here they are up front about the extension. I love the Rennline pedals Mark put on the Helmet.

    Rennline stuff is not cheap, nice but not cheap. I had to mod the dead pedal to make it look right on my extension, made me a little sick carving it up but hey, it had to be done. Do you have an idea of what extension you would use? I only used the top on mine so I have the bottom collecting dust. Might be able to modify it if you want to use it up top.

    Looks like convertible top repair is in my future. I heard a pop and the driver’s side latch decided not to unlock.

    They were an exceptional looking car back in the day and have stood the test of time.

    Wow! No kidding. 230 bucks for something I'm going to mess up with my nasty shoes after walking through a dirt parking lot on a rainy day? Maybe if I won the lottery.

    I am not fan of Jags from any year. That may as well be a fiat to me.

    Ditto. That Aston is just ok, I'm not a fan of any convertible car, though when it comes to that brand I LOVE the way the Vanquish looks.

    Beautiful car CD! Love the old open wheel racers. Glad I don't have to turn that hand crank though.

    It is a very sharp looking car and I’m with vetsvette on the hand crank. Not being real knowledgeable on old race cars of that era I was intrigued by the wheels not being wire spoked.

    Yes, better than standard halogens. No need for CANbus cancellers that some cars need when you switch LED. The cutoff w/ LEDs may differ, too.

    I'm not sure 65W bulbs are legal for street use here. But I have heard good things about Osram bulbs. If I only knew where I could get them locally.

    Technically, they weren’t, although they
    aren’t any brighter than legal oem xenons.
    The Osram 65w bulbs have not been
    available anywhere for a couple years now.
