RE: Report on recent mods/purchases (Suspension, Brakes, K&N)

["Yui, Stephen" <SXYUI@COMDISCO.COM>]

Hi Tom,

I noticed two mods that I'd like to inquire about.  First, is the locking
gas door something that I can add?  I've always had a locking gas door on my
previous cars, I guess it's just a sense on security.  Secondly, how do you
"Beepless-Arm" your alarm?  As functional as it may be, it's kind of
annoying at times.

Thanks,
Steve

|The European-specifications headlight switch will allow you to do this.

|How's that for spam?
|   By the way, if anyone out there has an A1 VW, I so very highly
|recommend the Boge Progas/Neuspeed Sport suspention setup. It's a
|hard ride, but not uncomfortably so ... and you can whing that
|little puppy around corners like crazy! Man, is that a fun ride!
|I need to go Eibachs/Neuspeed SofSports on my GLX - I hate the
|very wallowy stock suspension. But, alas, money is always tight.
