anyone interested in my back seat panels and door panels in exchange for the willow parts?? mine are black suede. I am looking to pick up the ones in the marketplace and he needs stock willow ones back since he is parting out. I would ask for your stock ones in trade for mine and I will do the swap and ask for 300.00 on top. I will give you the little carpet tray piece from mine in black to match the suede in the car.

Let me know if anyone is interested. Any coupe is able to pick this up.

pics of my suede.

QX3 is the code. I have the original broken one to match with. The paint looked pearl at quick glance....

Ok.. Funny story..

So I go to workout today.. I go into the gym, and realize I left my ipod in the car.. Go back out, and notice this dude walking around my car befuddled.. I mean hand on top of the head, pacing, and the "huh" look on his face..

I walk up to the car, and he asks, "Is this your car?" I'm like, "yeah... "

He says, "It's a GORGEOUS car, but for the LIFE of me, I can't figure out how you get into the damn thing... "

I say.... "Oh.. I just touch it.." Mind you, my hand is in my pocket the whole time w/ my finger on the remote button..

I press the button in my pocket, and touch the door at the same time, and of course the door opens.. Dude's jaw just drops..

He's like.. "Get the F outta here.. you just TOUCH it? But wouldn't that work for just anyone?"

I said, "No, I had it chipped.. " He said, "chipped?"

"Yeah, chipped so that it knows my finger from someone elses.. Go ahead, try it.. "

I closed the door, and he he pressed the door, of course it didn't open.. I pressed the door and it popped open first time as before.. Dude was floored AGAIN..

He runs over to the passenger side.. "So what do you do for this side? Do you have to come over and touch this door too?" I said, "No, of course not.. That side is voice activated.. Watch..." I yelled "GUEST!!!" (couldn't think of anything else fast enough) pressed the passenger door button and the door opened...

This dude couldn't believe what just happened.. He walks off backwards looking at the car saying.. "That's some Knight Rider **** right there..."

Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha.. I love gullible people.. Yeah I'm prolly going to hell for this one.. But it made me laugh today..

I would of ordered the hub assemblies for the rear chris. I believe the bearings are on the inside of the hub. You will need a blind bearing puller to get them out.

I got some amsoil diff fluid today so i can install my vlsd with solid bushings. I cant keep from spinning in the first 3 gears
