          Small update, I installed door seals that I bought off a forum member that still had the felt in tact. The originals had seen better days, no more wind noise and much better to look at. I also replaced the other busted fender liner. One B pillar cover to replace and the trim will be mint!

          Next change will be an avin unit and the induktiv charger.

          Does anyone know how difficult it is to add the auto function to the headlights? Is it just a new switch and some coding?

            For auto headlights, you need the rain sensor behind the rearview mirror, a coded LCM, and switch.

              Thanks for the info, fortunately I have the rain sensor so it shouldn’t be too much of a project.

                Small update

                [mention]slavik1988 [/mention] sold me his old sunroof shade and today I tackled pulling off the sunroof glass, installing the shade and finding out why my shade was removed in the first place. When I received the car it was missing the shade completely.

                  Minor update:
                  Hit 1200 miles on the fresh rod bearings and changed the oil, spark plugs and fuel filter. This car is such a joy about 4500 RPM with the turner airbox.

                  Planning to ditch the off the shelf tune from Kassel and do a custom dyno tune with PCS now that the car is ready.

                  List of what has been done to date:

                  Rod bearings
                  Full Beisan Vanos (solenoid, hub, bolts, anti rattle, etc)
                  Subframe reinforcement plates
                  Fortune auto 500 Coilovers
                  Active Autowerkes section 3
                  Turner airbox v2
                  Kassel DME conversion
                  Kassel off the shelf tune
                  TTFS air rail and MAP sensor
                  Spark plugs
                  Fuel filter
                  Fresh tires
                  Paint correction
                  Ceramic coating
                  Refinished OEM 18”
                  New headlight lenses
                  New turn signals (clear)
                  Paint matched reflectors
                  New A,B,C pillars

                  Left to do:

                  Custom dyno tune
                  Recaro PP ABE
                  AVIN AVANT 4
                  Induktiv wireless charger
                  Wheel studs
                  Euro cats
                  Catless headers
                  CSL trunk (if price comes down)
                  …To be continued

                      Following this as I'm in the market for coilovers. I want an OEM+ ride, an occasional track day. I'd love some Ohlins, but want to keep cost under $2k. The Fortune Auto 500 are high on my list.

                        isn’t that a vert a pillar? How did you screw it in?
                        Just some old shitty cars.
