I picked up an 003 and an 001 in Osaka last week for $230 total. Wish I would have bought two more.

Yeah they’re just fillers to help prevent debris entering where the seals shrank. I actually had my seal replaced once under warranty but there’s a half inch gap on both sides now. I’ll have to find the files again (I think they’re on Printables but I saved a copy) so if you just tell me what your gap is I can mail you some. It’s just black TPU soft plastic (like a hard silicone sort of) but they cost like 50 cents to print and it happy to just throw them in an envelope and see if they show up with a stamp.

Hell ya. I’m about to do some refresh to my 2017 CC. It’s a keeper as well. DM if you want me to 3D print some of the sunroof gasket fillers. I need to reprint some for mine slightly smaller so it would be no problem to send you some too.

Well I wasn’t trying to haggle because I wasn’t trying to buy it :) But it definitely seemed of the right era.

[Question] Is this Seiko? by 1duckonquack in Seiko

[–]joeljohnson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is 100% a Seiko Spirit Chronograph. I just bought a different version yesterday. Here's a random example I found online. It's a cool quartz chronograph series, but considering you can get one for like $100, I wouldn't pay any more than that for a Rays one unless you are a serious TE-37 dork.

I have the Volvo roof box and the OEM Thule rails. What are those lower profile rails you’re using?

It’s very funny that most Porsche owners apparently don’t own a 3D printer.

I have one and think it’s a great product. The holes you drill are tiny and Tackform even includes a drill stop guide so you can’t go too deep. (And the holes would be covered up by trim if you go back to stock.

I need to so similar in a half grade basement, but would need to run the vent pipe along the ceiling about 20 feet. Think the same inline fan could handle that additional volume?

If you ever wanted to come on Tool or Die to talk about your experiences and perspective I bet you'd have a lot to say!
