Hi Kev,

It's a Command AP500. The switch panel is something I made up, I wasn't to keen on adding another stalk on the column.

I have a AP150 in my other car and whilst its pretty smooth the speed still fluctuates 2-3 kph, the AP500 is spot on with no fluctuation.

Mark

Good to see one in action! You should send it to Keith to use as a promo shot! (Make sure you charge accordingly)

Decided that a respray was in order so stripped it back and began the prep work.

Group Buy? Mainly to save on shipping, wouldn't expect much discount on a $15 part.

1 could probably be snuck in a USPS envelope more might bump up postage, then you'd have to distribute within Australia, not worth the hassle.

Drove it 1800 kms over 18 hrs, and picked up a carbon fibre hardtop.

Sounds like a good excuse to drive 1800kms! Where's the photos? :mrgreen:

Got around to changing something that was really bugging me for so long. The door/window rubber belt. Installation was no more than 5 mins but the satisfaction every time I open my door and see a perfect rubber strip is awesome.
