side marker lamps

["Armstead, Brian" <barmstea@usia.gov>]

I have an '86 5000 CST and an '89 200q that I'd like to add amber side 
marker lamps to (20 valve look on a budget!).   Anyone BTDT?  I also 
would like to upgrade the dash on my '89 so that the panel around the 
climate control  and the ashtray  have the "wood" look.  Anyone have 
these available?

On another note, my 200q (purchased in Jan '97, 117K, Boge replacements) 
has an annoying trait.  When I'm on a washboard surface, the front 
suspension has an annoying bounce (or at least that's how it feels 
through the steering wheel).  The car has been wrecked before, but my 
mechanic and alignment specialist said it had been rebuilt correctly 
(must have been a good hit, as the control arms in the rear are new).  
After having a four wheel alignment done, the car seems darty and hard to 
keep in a straight line with one hand on the wheel.  Tires are wearing 
evenly all around, and I have the factory BBS wheels (straight), so I'm 
puzzled.  My '86 turbo (168K) exhibits none of these traits(also been 
wrecked--both before I bought them!!).

How much heavier is the "Q" vs. the turbo?  The '86 beats the pants off 
of the 200q off the line (even at speed it seems much faster).  With the 
A/C on, the "Q" is a real dog.

Any thoughts?
