[QUOTE="GAPMAN, post: 28658, member: 15286"] Thank you JorgeS, I just realised i forgot to mention mileage... so far it`s got 81k miles, I bought it with 64k miles. I also have to take a new picture, this one is from last year. in the meantime I swapped the headlights back to those with orange DRL`s and painted the fake "air scoops" inside the bumper silver like they came from the factory. I also put an antenna for the radio on it, previous owners scrapped it(probably because it creates a lot of wind noise). I put the heater in it to eliminate cold starts in terms of engine wear. I live pretty much in the Center of Germany, it doesn`t really get that cold here. -21°C is about the lowest it has been here for the past years, usually temperatures stay at around 0 to -10°C during wintertime. But i should note that i live near woods and rivers, therefore the air is very humid and it feels a lot colder than it actually is. I kind of figured heaters like this are uncommon in the US since I couldnt find anything about preheating but plug-in block heaters. Therefore installing it was quite a creative process. [/QUOTE]
