Welcome to the group. I'm a big fan of just drive the car. If you think you need to do something do it based in need not on other's opinions. You see, in my opinion they don't need anything.

The FIRST thing you need to do is post up some photos! THEN we can overwhelm you with suggestions and opinions.

I second de events. Once you have lived with it for a while, then we can make suggestions. One of my favorites, is gt-delete. Gives me more room to move my right leg. Jb
