I got the rear flares and rear 4.8iS bumper with PDC to go with my style 87's. Still looking for a 4.8iS facelift front bumper with PDC, hopefully in black... Still undecided on front flares...

Ordered all new climate control buttons (my fan up and down button keeps falling off).

New hatch led light bulbs came in today but to cold and late to install tonight.

Still loving the crap out of my heated steering wheel. If you have never driven a car with one trust me GET ONE.

Mine did that too - I fixed it with some Master Black Plus Gasket silicone - as only one of the two small pivots had failed, a small dab of silicone in the correct spot creates a new "pivot".

Seems to have held up pretty well (about a year now).

I had planned on looking into fixing mine but for $17 I got all new buttons and the light inserts.

Couldn't resist at that price for all new stuff.

I was going to do the same but the exchange rate and postage made it more like $50-$60, so it was out with the black goo!

That's a good deal! Actually, I'll be in the USA next week - might have to stack up a few eBay purchases and get them delivered to my hotel. I can see the folk at NZ Customs now, as I struggle though the queue with a set of Style 87s...
