[s-cars] Re: front speaker upgrade with internet option

[Bjørn Ødegård]

Well, it seems that someone probably posts each 5th minute anyway, so why
not include _some_ Audi content in some of the posts?  ;o)
I really have to unsub for the 3 weeks I'm moving/renovating, but I'd hate
to lose a great pissing contest or some other BS-discussion about MB
wheelbolts or any other of the topics I've grown into loving from you guys!
I think I have about 40 megs of messages both read and unread in my s-cars
inbox, but I swear I'll have use for one of the posts one fine day!  :o))

 Any BTDT on my generator problem, btw?... (Rack problem update: I'll get a
new rack boot for around $40, so it's not a big deal, just alot of work..)

Bjorn  :o)
