    Major HELP Please!!

    Hi there

    Right here's the what I would like some advice/ help with.

    My car does not consist of the following two options: Folding mirrors/ lights package.

    1. I would like to know if I can retro fit electric folding mirrors,

    2. Can I retro fit auto lights (New switches etc..)

    3. Can I get the garage to sort out the head to do the following:

    - Stay on for 30seconds or so after I lock the car
    - Stop the LED from dimming every time I indicate (its so annoying)

    I hope someone can give me some advice I will add more questions as I come across more!

    Thanks
    Dan

    Thumbs up Re: Major HELP Please!!

    Are you sure the mirrors don't have motors?? The door switch has positions for Left adjust Right and down is defrost and straight up retracts them. I had mine for a month before I figured it out.And manually can be retracted easily.Sometimes you can wave to others by folding mirrors in and out and wave with the tail spoiler too (at slow speeds)

    Exclamation Re: Major HELP Please!!

    Yes DANKO ,I have the Miltek Cat back with the flaps disabled.The filters are 1000 % better quality than stock filters.And my seat of pants dyno tells me that my R 8 has approximately 25 more ponys. I really think we should ask DESPARADO if he thinks the EXTRA noise is worth the Extra power. I would'nt have it the stock way by NO means.Plenty of pics in the gallery under harrison. BUT don't purchase 'till you hear/feel better. Go to janerinsurance/v2 for a LITTLE taste of sound/performance.This is just the trailer as the final version is complicated to finish.I don't want any U-Tube type crappolla!! The sound track has been mixed at Studio Symphonies in Burbank Ca. by my buddies (ENRGETIK STUDIOS) and I.Formatting is the trickiest part.I will have a counter as well to keep track of hits.The plan is to hand out flash drives to freinds and people everywhere to promote Me,the business and the studio!!!!!!!!!!! and the AWESOME R 8. All funded by myself.
