Yeah yeah... I see how ya are... you poke fun of "this guy called Robby" but you don't let me know about the good stuff... You were going to e-mail me... right...!

:-) :-) :-)

Hey... aren't there any smilies on this board?

Anyway, another guy mentioned this thread to me the other day, when talking about speaker-stuff. I'm still toying w/the stereo crap- epsecially after some ******* broke into my car... Not sure if you heard about that or not... Anyway, I RE-registered specifically to get to this thread. I had been here before, but, it was long ago- I'm going to start looking at this board more often though... Have you done anything interesting lately? I don't see any new additions in your sig... What about the electric hatch release- was that tough to do? Did you ever figure out how much weight that saved, if any...?

also, have you ever looked into finding a much lighter wheel to use as a spare? I've been trying to find out how much a lightweight drag skinny would weigh- just something to keep back there to save a little weight, but, still have the reassurance of a wheel- the stock aluminum spare weighs 29lbs- I'm thinking that for it's size, we could lose at least 10lbs...? What do you think? Any ideas on this? Maybe even just finding a REALLY lightweight wheel, like the Volk TE37 or something, in the smallest size that would clear the calipers & see what it would weigh... I know some of the TE37 wheels weigh less than 9lbs in the narrower 15" range...
