I will eventually replace this video with a better one...
You've got PM man!
Hey YviE!
The extra holes don't to ****** but build up more tension between two metal "string" meaning that "they" always want to open, thus pushing the trunk up. The factory tension is low, but can be regulated, as you can see in the video there are three positions, I bet a few know of this. But it still isn't enough to make the trunk open all the way up, hence I drilled an extra hole to help the process a little
I admit it looks kinda ghetto

Just two pictures I took last night
This one shows how bright these puddle lights really are. I used slower shutter speed to really show the color, but as you can see the bottom of the car is still dark, but the area which is illuminated by these puddle led lights is bright indeed!
Just a pic to show you how I mainly ride my GS daily.
BTW lucky us, we don't have to re-wire anything to make the fog lights work without low-beams.
(If I'm not mistaken you do have to rewire the fogs wiring right? )

very easy mod. 2 holes on the sides and you wont ever use your hand to open the trunk. You can also use this feature while braking from 150 mph

This a mod for me. Thanks for the vid.

And you're bang on, regarding wet sanding, I should do it, but the weather here in Tallinn starts to worsen with every day

Here are the videos I said I was going to take.
In this one I show how the oem rear fog-lights work while pressing on the brake pedal and turning on/off fog-lights during the video.

In this one I show how the inner lights now work as fully functional stop lights, copying how it works and looks on USDM GS.

Here is a picture of the inside cabin button I press to turn on the rear fog-lights.
Mentioned inside cabin button only works when this inside trunk (added) switch is in the fog-light position. If it's not the inner lights work as stop lights. Here is a crappy pic of the switch and the wires I had to add to make all of this work.
Here is a picture of the extra (white) wire I had to run to the inner lights to make them work as "running" lights also.
And a couple of videos of the freshly installed led mirror covers

The last video is something that I think USDM GS can't do due to as I suppose safety regulations. I mean the "close" part
