BRAKE LIGHT: I have purchased the Hella third brake light from Daniel Stern but haven't had time to install yet. It looks like it will fit nicely. I am planning on mounting it at the top of the rear windshield (comes with strong adhesive) for maximum visability and running the wire in along the seal to hide it.

HOOD INSULATION: I also got some hood insulation from B-Quiet. I bought it along with the other butyl insulation I put on the floor, inside doors and trunk, etc. Seems like it will work very well under the hood to deflect noise and heat and sound good closing. http://www.b-quiet.com/hliner.html

I also got a custom-sewn carbon fiber firewall insulator. it replace the jute mess that comes with the 122. This same guy does a carbon fiber tunnel blanket too (which I need cause mine gets HOT) but I haven't been able to afford that yet. http://www.heatblok.com/product.html

WHEELSKIN The prevous owner put a perforated leather grip on the wheel that is quite nice. It's not totally custom but I can't see a brand name on it.

I admire your focus on your Amazon repairs. I am so busy that I seem to go it at every night for three or four days in a row and then let it slide for 2-3 months.
