Do you think you could send me a PM with the source of those billet light/wiper switches and the lighted round switches? I'm going to expand on my interior over time and those parts look really nice.

Great choice for gauges and good dressing on the gauge rings BTW. It's easy for people to go overboard with ultra modern stuff that clashes with the rest of the design.

Bob,
Looks great! What brand of leather sewing machine did you get? Any pictures? I've thought of this myself. I saw a couple of really great modern How To interior books in Barnes and Nobles or Borders not too long ago. You'll have to post some "adventures in sewing" pictures......ha....

The knobs are standard hot rod stuff I just recesed them down the tube. check Ron Francis wiring the sell them and a good headlight switch. http://www.ronfrancis.com/prodinfo.asp?number=HL-07
on the ligted switches. search " bulgin anti-vandel swich" theres several sizes and with a lighted dot or the ring also stainless or black. I got mine from a pc moding website. theres a  hot rod company selling a a similar switch now with eched logos on them I forget the name.  :clueless:

You guessed it.  :thumbsup: its a Touchscreen Dash logger from PCS It does lots of cool engine and dash info plus data logging. It has a lot of inputs and outputs. It works with the can buss so It talks to the engine and trans computer. http://www.powertraincontrolsolutions.com/datalogging.php If you search around theres other web sights with more info on it. Most of the pics show it blue and white mine is black and white which is good for me with my white lighting.

Thanks for finding my post! I thought it got deleted it was so far back there.  ;D
So lets see. The nag 1 trans was still giving me some grief If I got on it hard from say third or forth It might shift or it might pop in to something like neutral. requiring a complete stop and putting the car in to park and then it would start over ok. Not much fun. So it sat until I had some time to think about it. I spent some time on the phone with Russel at PCS and went over all my thoughts and issues. I wont bore you with all the details of this crazy German trans. But he put me in touch will another Russ at Sound German Auto who has been working with the Mercedes counter part. Real nice guy very helpful. Long story short I put 30 miles on it this weekend and it hasn't missed a shift.  :woohoo: still tweaking the calibration I'd like it as smooth as a new car when I feel mellow and full on race when I get on it. Done some more motor tuning as well. But it seems endless. I had a lean spot in the curve at cruise. Was getting really good mileage numbers! The power is intoxicating.  :burnout:  I did notice a bit of pinging in second gear at 6K have to back and check that out. More tuning. I took it from my "garage" to the shop where I work and put it on the rack Its the first time its been up since paint. Went over every thing and double checked. Charged the AC works good nice and cold. I have been learning to sew and playing with upholstering the trunk. more on that soon!
