Nice ride, and those look like OEM gauges lower center console? Nice!

Is one of them a boost gauge, and did the dealer install them before delivery? How much did they run?

Tatt,

I'm pretty sure the OEM auxiliary gauges are battery voltage and oil temperature - I have them. I WISH one of them was boost! And since I don't have the center speedometer, I can't get the steering-wheel mounted gauges, one of which -is- a boost gauge.

Those buttons are for the optional MINI Bluetooth hands free phone kit.

The buttons were included beginning January 2005 production.

Yes, I "avoided" those buttons by about 15 days, with my "Week 50" build, in December of '04.

IF the new "blackberry" devices that work is getting, turn out to have some sort of compatibility with BT, THEN I will fret about it!
