The German word for that rear shelf is Hutablage, literally meaning shelf for your hat.

I have never seen a shifter know like that! Is it the hot temperatures you are getting that is causing that? You can remove and replace the button on the shifter but not sure how much further you can make it disassemble. There should be shifters for sale out there in better condition for less than t...

As many times as I have removed and replaced that thing over the years when having to replace a leaking cam seal, I had never reinstalled i...

Unless you want 100% originality, a plain bolt is fine. Those pointy pins limit the rims you can use. I probably have a bunch of them as I always removed them. Now where they are......................?!

This is the second time i know of that a TCU replacement cleared transmission codes. I had it happen on a 98 s70 before which presented with the flashing arrow of death. Glad its resolved!
