Is there a term for the fitting on the end of the VW/Porsche antenna?

 

Hard to search for an adapter from MCX to VW, lol

What year car? I can get you the part number, price, etc

2005 Porsche 911 Carrera S uses a FAKRA adapter. Metra Part # 40EU10

 

Usually they sell for about $20

And for me if the 6 isn't an M I don't like it. I want to though. I love big 2 doors, but that car really needs the M treatment.

I found it pretty not exciting and 25k more.

At $30k I am in 2006 m5 teritory with 50k miles. I worry about the tranny though.

Or spend $18k on a super clean E39 M5 and save $12k for something else.

So ugly to me.

Matt wants fast and prestige without costing him bank. Preference for AWD or some capability of dealing with our climate although it need not be driven on uber shitty days.

I'd add comfortable and considering Matt isn't little a teeny car probably won't work.

Correct!

This a good sub 30 winter safe unit?

Moped went pff yesterday, lost all power and compression. Turns out the wrist pin safety got fucked and scratched some nice marks in the cylinder. Piston is also fucked Doh.gif

There goes a $150 engine set. Motherfucker.

Can't you just grab a lawn mower and rip the engine offk

I have 2 in my yard right now.

 

I still have my old cylinder, albeit a bit ovalized. New piston and rings and it's good to go for another year.

I should clarify though, I don't need a headunit adapter, I just need to know what they name the connector on the end of their antenna as I need to convert it to an MCX adapter that will plug into a USB antenna so that my tablet gets FM radio. :)

I finally have keyless entry in the Jeep. The car originally had IR keyless entry but I did not get the remote, it also had an aftermarket alarm, so the wires for locking / unlocking the doors were within reach. And a couple of weeks ago I found RF 4 channel remote / receiver combos, bought one and installed it today. It's so nice to have keyless entry :D

Small, light remote, feels very solid, I'm surprised it's chinese stuff.

I don't know Sean, looking it up I don't have an adapter necessary. Don't have a clue how to get you where you need to be. =/  If you find out what you need, let me know and I can probably get it.

Is his definition of fast the same as yours? :)

I would rather feel exhilarated than be actually "fast". I don't take the "fast" smooth line in turns, I take the fun line.

Not looking to drift, just goin around a bit in something that will make my boss get a little nervous.

I'd guess 5.5 sprints and 13.5 qtr's are acceptable.

Sure!!

Enough grunt or a manual to make up for the sub 400 HP.

Fucker made me search for Panamera's. I hate loving them.

Just take me for a spin when you give in.

Love it, and the new Sclass.... And the old. But I'm afraid of break downs. And a co worker drives an E350 and it looks so old.
