how come there is no one place that carries all this stuff? OH well.
Part #1: Hidden Hitch
The wife and I were talking about our vacation that's coming up in the next month or so and the topic of which car to take came up. She drives a '99 Saab 93, which is VERY nice to travel in as far as comfort over the long haul. Cushy seats, very quiet, good gas mileage, TONS of cargo space, etc.
But we both agree that being able to drop the top wins over all of those features so she says to me "I'd rather take your car, but we wont be able to take our bikes"... Ohh ho hold on there just one sec babe. We can indeed take our bikes. All I need is the Hitch and bike rack.
Now my real motive for excitement about this is that I'll be able to finally make my tiretail for autocross... so that I can hopefully start participating a little more in the regional events once I get my brakes fixed.
So does anyone here have the Da'Lan Hidden hitch on their NB? I did some searching over at m.net and found a few guys that had them. OR does anyone here know of a different brand that works pretty much the same way without being seen?
Part #2 - Oil Filter Relocation Kit
Anyone here us an Oil Filter Relocation kit on their NB? I'm considering a few different ones. The Thompson is the highest rated one, but it is also one of the most expensive ($160+).
Others I've found:
Raven Wing
TD for $70
Mazda? BrandX? for $126
Moss, Good Win & GoMiata
Cool-Tek for $85 ($90 @ GoMiata)
Flyin' Miata (most expensive of all)
MF for $220
If anyone here has used/uses any of these please chime in.
