<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=648372319-24022009>I have been on this
list since I bought my b14 in September, 1997. I read the digest,
so I am usually behind when it comes to topics. The car just
turned 337,000 miles last week. It is mostly original, even the water
pump! By the time I put it on the track at the convention, it will be
close to 340,000. It only failed me once, around 50,000 miles, when the
OEM battery shorted out and blew the alternator. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

this in time, Crutchfield electronics (<A
href="http://www.crutchfield.com">www.crutchfield.com</A>) sells stuff that you
need in many different price ranges. They send along instructions and
diagrams specific to your vehicle and include all the connectors to make
everything plug-and-play. I think they also have a "hot-line" if you get
into it and have problems.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
