After this very long and cold winter it finally starts to feel like spring. I took her for a ride for the first time this year and she purred like a kitty.

Still, it's a little to cold for removing the hardtop but soon...

I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and thank you for visiting my blog here...

I haven't been so active this year since I had to spend more time with my family and other unexpected things in my life, but next year will be different and I have some plans for my car.

Hope that you continue to visit me ans see you all next year...

Uppgraded the car stereo.

Bought a new JVC car stereo to the car since I'm going to use it for daily driving soon, not very time typical but very practical and have a discretely look. It has bluetooth so I can connect my cellphone to it, stream music or take my calls from it (you can see the microphone near the tachometer). I will mostly use the usb port to play music from a usb memory instead of using those old CD disks which where always laying around everywhere.

Fixed illumination of Temperature wheels and Fan-knobs

Removed the plastic knobs to be able to replace the broken bulbs for the "Fan/Temp. knobs".
Seems to be ordinary standard car bulbs. Had one at home but will by some more tomorrow...

Plastic knobs removed
Now I can reach them
Standard bulb

Fixed the "shiftstick" illumiation

Replaced the auto trans. "shift stick" illumination bulb, had a really hard time finding one . Visited almost every car-part vendor but none to be found. 

Try Mercedes you think and that's what I did... They had one single bulb and couldn't get any more??? Fortunately I got one at least but since no more the be easily found around here I build one as spare using the old bulb and a high intense LED which is seen in the picture.

In place
one spare rebuild one
