They are perfect on mine, despite they are all apparently painted together with the frame, which sure is not the best practice on a moving linkage...
Neither on mine! Apart the inner side of the roof, which is sandy for some reason I don't understand.
Hi Mike, they are both the "base" (not Germany, not Switzerland) EU parts, but I don't understand the difference... Thanks
Yes I agree it's not the best! OK so I think we can conclude that, whatever colours of outer top and interiors, the inner top and its frame are...
I will, thanks. They are not my most convenient solution, though... My idea was starting from a stock silencer, which I believe is cheaper and...
Thanks I will! (when I will hopefully register it, for now I drove it from the carrier truck to the garage)
Hi, thanks, no I don't need a picture: this is the exact same combo I have so I was wondering why on a black interior the frame was that sort of...
Hi all, curious to know: are there different colours available for the foldable roof frame, that were maybe originally offered as options? E.g....

Hi I would recommend checking the hood opening/closing system and cycle it for some times, as very stupid failures (e.g. sensors) can be costly to...
Hi Mfreak, I had a similar issue, despite not the same, and mine was definitely driver's side, but worth a try: in my case, and I have the CF...
Hi Alex, a switch like that is simply disconnecting the battery, with its pro's and con's: it effectively stops ANY battery drain (the battery...
Sorry if OT, but this is not what the owner's manual and the workshop manual say (see attachments). [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
A certain amount of force is needed to compress a free spring by a certain amount. Exactly the same EXTRA amount of force (assuming the spring is...
May I respectfully ask why? I am sure you know reducing preload is not affecting stiffness.
Hi, yes, they are, but the diamond cut is only available on the "anthracite" base color.
Would lowering the car on the OEM springs help with this? Is it possible to lower 20mm on OEM springs, or what is the optimal lowering ride...
