In your case you can have one of the fog light buttons control power for the blue alert light.

The whole point: keeping it as OEM and stealth as possible.

Great idea. My blue light actually has a dual switch: one for power and one for pattern selection. I am thinking of making as mini panel with the control unit from the 9500 in the ashtray.

Nice. Congrats. Enjoy in good health

Nice shots; very clean.

IND has the kidneys but sourced and shipped from Germany so they are expensive. I am going to try yo be patient for once and wait a bit for them to be available here.

Good-looking car. Very nice.

I tend to agree with this statement, and it is one of the reasons, among a few, that I think Space Gray is the color for me. IMHO, I still like the 343M wheels. I've seen a number of folks on the forum get CP of late, but I've decided that it is doubtful that I'd ever utilize the potential...at least not enough for the spend. In an "either/or" sense, (though it certainly does not have to be that way), I want full leather and B&O. For some reason, and maybe it is just that I have not seen them, I don't see a lot of folks optioning full leather, even the CP, B&O, or otherwise "full option" folks... What gives? I have yet to appreciate (some might say "understand") what the lighting package gets me of any appreciable value.

Terminology. I always get confused between "full" and "extended". Extended leather is the base. Full Leather is the $3,500 option. I have the full leather.

You have the lighting package, so maybe you can help me. Is it just full LEDs outside, and auto high beams? Thanks.

Yes... full LED's - cornering lights, turn signals, high beams - everything + high beam assistant.

DrewM5 · 12-22-2013, 06:38 AM
