Thanks - I just hope there's a painless way of removing them. Hey, and if you happen to park alongside another FL2, shouldn't be a problem right?

Hey there SGS01, nice to meet you! Actually what I was talking about are the black tubing under the door sills, and the roof rails. I've grown used to them now, although the roof makes alot of drag and noise above 110Kmh, worse with the sunroof open. Still, a shame to take them off. The tubes actually reduce ground clearance, and if I'm doing serious offroad, they would have to come off. But for light off-roading like I tried out today for the first time with this one (see pics below) no problem.

the tubes are sill protectors, stop you popping the door sills off, saved my car a few times and i now have 2 sets one for show, one set for mud that are scraped and dented |

npinks thanks for the clarification. Yes i can see how they would protect the sills - the driver's side rear sill is already loose at the front of the door, will have to see about fixing that. Maybe I'll keep the sill protector tubes on,then.

each side does have independent temp controls, so i presume they have thermostats each side also,
