There is info under the hood on the Vin plate.
I would need the Info to tell which rack you have in the car.

P.S. I have a set of HID's to figure out a setup for my car!

P.S.S Im still jealous about how yours looks.

cool, i'll stop by your shop sometime in the morning, so you can get what you need from the vin plate.

the HIDs should be an easy set-up. only like 3 or 4 wires right?

i'm jealous that you have a house and a garage in such a nice a$$ neighborhood ;D

hey, if your ok with it, pack that info button on you tomorrow and i'll put it in to see if it.works.

Default Which Tie Rods? (3 years later)

Thanks Tech for that helpful start to answering my problem.

Having perused my own '94 940T VIN for 14s and 16s I find a 16(240 2) in the second row of information on the right hand side of the plate. Is this indicative of 16mm tie rods? Thanks in anticipation.
