The large nut that holds the wiper arm, has a cap that covers it. Not really necessary, but it bugged me.
Needswings has those caps in stock - I got a couple from Rob last year.

Finally got the leaky electrical plug on the transmission replaced had to pull the valve body to get to the back of the plug so we could get the screw out, changed fluid with mobil 1 syn , everything buttoned back up and trans seems to be shifting better no more drips in the floor, Time for a run at the Dragon. ZOOM ZOOM :D

H., I hope you mean't you also changed the crankcase oil, and you didn't put Mobil 1 in the tranny. Right?

It's just the way it reads to me, buddy!

Sorry Maxx .I hope I didnt seem short . I put the mobil in it because the dealer wanted 14.00 a quart and after checking the price I went with the cheaper of the 2... i cant believe i had a problem with 4 dollar difference after all the money I have spent on my car.. but for some reason i just didnt want to give it to the dealer. . and i feel comfortable with mobil 1 products. and the car is shifting great.

Rudy wouldn't approve of your choice but I don't blame you. I got lucky and found some of the right stuff locally, not at the dealer. Now I just have to put it in.

Received the ZT-2, and plan on installing it as well as a boost and IAT sensor soon. Found a big leak and fixed it by installing the stock manifolds this afternoon. Oh, kicked Steve's butt by 3 tenths at the track yesterday. Came close to buying a SL600 on ebay, but didn't.

Replaced the brake pads up front - the dash warning light told me it needed it. Put a Mercedes wheel cap on one wheel to see how it looks...I like it!
