Crap I want to say yes but now I'm second guessing myself haha. I'm getting visuals from the ZHP and the X3's bar mixed up (descent control, and TPMS in the X3). From memory I definitely have butt toasters, DSC, hi-fi, rear shade.

Confirmed: one empty slot. I obviously need to add a NOS button or something.

Unrelated to the asymmetrical button bar dilemma, these showed up during lunch:

I barely had enough time to open the box, much less clean them up and thoroughly inspect. They appear to be Carbon, and the glass is free of browning. There's one spot of peeling clear coat (irrelevant as I'm going to paint), but I didn't find any rust/paint bubbling. All of the rock chips feel very shallow, and should be clean enough to make repainting a pretty straightforward task.

I did these a couple of months ago but wanted to share with the Mafia. Added a Pro Clip cell phone mount with a Panavise base. The Panavise base was a little tricky to attach under the silver trim but it worked out pretty well. I also went ahead and installed a US Mill Works front license plate bracket. Overall, pretty happy about both purchases.

Not sure if it was different back then or if I just happen to see a lot of southern Zhp's but now in the mid west and NE, Dealers lots are filled with awd-auto boxes with seat warmers. These 3 features are pretty much the norm.

Looks good! Can't wait to see them in Estoril

Only slightly related--it's nice to know there's another member in DFW that's active here. Cheers!
