i remember that exact 300 advert. it was to try and banish the thoughts that the 300 was an expensive car (which it was).

bizarre that only the DRIVERS seat is heated!? i always thought it was both or nothing

stevep is probably your best bet, as all parts are common and he's breaking some 360s at the moment. i'm sure he'll be along shortly

my (current) glt has 13" steelies, so yes, it'll work fine. obviously, depends a little on *which* steel wheels you use, some aftermarket jobs might not like it

yeah sounds like a loose earth somewhere - to be honest the easiest option is probably just to replace the whole unit - you can swap your speedo in to get the milage right and bobs yer uncle

power curve drops right off at a certain point, car just won't go quicker..

440li's are gash, i learned in one


your problem will be the 155s, having driven a glt wtih 155s all round, i can safely say they're crazyfun in the wet. change em for something with more tread (and new, 17 year old tyres are a deathtrap) and you'll be fine :)
