Did you have to order the wiper blades or did the dealer have them in stock;
swapped mine about a year back & they tried telling me my car came with an aftermarket blade? pt#28890-1EA0B

Very cool that you got to meet Ryan the other day

I lay a filing cabinet on its side, which ends up right about even with the door sill. Lots of blankets to protect the edges and providing cushioning. Then I can pretty much just lay on my back to do the work. It's much more tolerable that working from your knees by the car I just did my 4th RJM pedal install yesterday.

it wasn't all too bad. I put a thick jacket and towel on the edge and some gardening pads down for the knee. I literally lay on my back to do the upper portions. the thigh support n the chair made it weird in certain positions.

I found this to be okay but tricky to get to certain positions. can't imagine what the 1.0 - 2.0 versions were like

I didn't realize this clutch pedal option existed. I just ordered it. First and second gear has been a PITA for me on this car :-)

I went for a really early am drive on curvey roads along the Trinity River. I figured right....hardly any traffic out early on the 4th. Really nice.
Cheers

Walked past her in the garage and admired her beauty. Even at 6 years old, I still think she's a damn good looking sports cars. Didn't have time to go out on a drive this weekend though. Maybe next weekend.

Yes! I have a home made footstool that lines up with the height of the Z's door. Definitely makes it easier.
