HOLY SMOKES!!! Fire hazard- SC and Carrera owners.
I was reading the Sep. issue of Excellence I just received and came across Jim Pasha's article in the Tech. Forum (p.172.). It seems that some of the wires for the glove box lamp are too close to the bulb. One owner had the insulation melt causing a short, melting his wiring harness. I checked my own cars- the SC was OK, but sure enough, the Carrera had a loop of wire touching the glove box bulb (which gets very hot, BTW). I simply moved it out of the way and reinstalled.
