Correct about the center console and pedals. But all 05s have the 200MPH cluster.

Best one on the market

Love the fact that it doesnt go onto the sides of the rear fender. Dont know if that makes sense, but it fits just the way it should.

You guys really need to chill out on Toadster once he comes back with the car. He seems like an ok guy, especially since he has taken a ton of crap from several members and never started a lame internet verbal battle over it.

Come on man, you have to admit no car and 400+ posts is crazy.

By the silence I'm guessing he is away getting his car which is at least a start but now he'll have to figure out how to be less annoying and then he won't get picked on.
