Thanks, I was kind of iffy about how they would come out when my friend suggested Porsche 918 green for the calipers. It ended up being a nice attention getter for my otherwise minimalist car.

Default Tach needle led replaced

Took out green led that I installed 3 months ago for a brighter white one. Worked when I turned to acc, and promptly quit when I started it :-( now I have to take it all apart again.....also tried to fix memory seat switch but I think the logic ecu is bad as I get nothing from any button.

^ Those cluster bulbs are the most finicky thing I've ever experienced. No one had an answer as to why... I swapped all my big, dual filament bulbs out for the smaller single filament (black base) ones. It's not quite as bright, but at least they work consistently.

Installed 2 new rear shocks, and a passenger cup holder; now the dash looks complete. Front left door speaker is next. While the door panel is off, i'll clean all of the switch contacts and hopefully my mirror remote will work. Front shocks will be done when I can get some help.

yeah, I notice green calipers a lot more now when a panamera or cayenne pulls up next to me. I thought it wasn't common, but now I see it every few days.

^ Nice parking jobs. I kid, because I often get out of my SC and am dismayed at how cockeyed I parked despite appearing straight as an arrow from within the car. They don't have the best sight lines.

Had the corners converted to fogs and installed an Led scanner. ( I grew up a big Knight Rider fan, don't judge me )
