DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Will you be wiring them up through a relay to a dash mouted switch or are they just going to be dummies for looks?

Regards
Mike

I think I will Mike . They came with a wiring kit that included everything bar a switch but I figured I could run them through my unused heated rear window switch .

Very cool - esp in yellow

Awh shucks chaps

I can't believe I'm having to miss this trip . Our weekends away over the last few years have been the highlight of my summer , but on this occasion there really is no way round it . I've got to be back in the office first thing on the Monday morning .

I'm working on one idea though . The Missus has always wanted to go to to Brugge for the weekend . Wouldn't it be great if I could book the same ferry out on Thursday and join you chaps for the first leg say until your lunch stop ?
Better than nothing I suppose . Fingers crossed .

Anyway , I'm sure Peter ( Petric ) will be available for top swearing lessons

Cheers

Be good to see you bud

Remind her that you bought the 912 especially with her in mind!

Russ ... would be superb if you could join us all on the ferry .. really won't be the same without you

+3. Come on russ, you know you want to. It'll be good to see yo again and that car at last

Those new spot-lights are crying out for a European Jaunt Russ

While most of you are off on your jollies in that Germany I thought I'd stay home and do something constructive .

The car was due an MOT so I stuck it in without any real prep work . Glad to say it passed straight away with no advisories

My original seats are a little tired but by no means beyond repair despite needing a pair of headrests to suit . I've been looking round for someone local to me to repair them relatively quickly as I didn't want to take the car off the road during this summer . I'm managing to use it for my commute pretty much every day . I toyed with the idea of period aftermarket seats but the cost was prohibitive . Whilst browsing the dreaded Ebay I spotted a pair of Recaros advertised as from a BMW but with seat adapters for early 911 . Now I know these are a touch modern ( '80's ? ) but for the price I paid and the condition they're in I'm pleased with the result . I'll store my old seats for now until I find someone to do the repairs .


Remove the old seats and rails . Pans are very good . Just needed a good clean .

The dog helped out by making sure the packaging didn't blow away

There was a BMW logo on the backrest adjusting knob so I found a couple of cheap 45mm diameter stickers to go over the top to tidy them up .

Next job is refurbing the seat belts or buying new ones . Anyone know of a supplier for these ?
Also looking for the trim ring round the ignition key switch if anyone has one .

Cheers
