Don't forget to hide that 3rd brake wire while you are in there.

You and Peter would make great partners!

One of you could install 911 rear windows, the other could install porta potties!

There is another Carrera just 10 feet away. Unfortunately, the rear window looks really, really different.

Plan to have a work day this Sunday at my home. Ben will be there for those who want to see my BEST "project." Plan to do the following if there's enough help and knowledge:
  • mount oil cooling system (lines, center cooler) and measure and plan for the flexible lines between the stock oil lines and the new cooler
  • adjust mounting system for front FG bumper and measure front and back for tow hooks, which I plan to make myself with the offered help of another Dorki
  • Repair FG IROC spoiler/rear deck cover (if expertise available)
  • Mount and wire emergency cut-off switch
  • Cut/grind off stock rear sway bar mounts to prepare for WeVo installation
  • fix rear window installation

Thanks in advance. Would post as new thread, but figure everybody reads this one to see people dumping on me...

I'm guessing Peter will start before noon, and won't be hungover.

When your day starts once the hangover ends, and ends at happy hour, I'm guessing a lot of projects last more then "all day"
