I know you can do it with the CS wheel, never tried it with airbag
And as for what I did to my 968 this week, squeezed past it to get to the tool box, wiped some dust off it with my jeans, and it still wont crank when hot
So it can stay there for another month or 2

I put a new battery in the 968 today. The old one wouldn’t hold a charge more than a few days. I thought there might be a drain so I pulled out the multi-meter and couldn’t find any. When I pulled out the old battery I discovered it was dated June, 2002. Almost 14 years on a battery … not too shabby!

My next project (which I have put off too long) will be to pull the instrument cluster, replace the little plastic gear, and get my odometer working again. I thought while I’m in there, I should improve the instrument cluster lighting, so looked around and bought this kit off of eBay. Anyone ever tried these?

Many years ago, I ordered a pair of running board covers from Flash. These are black and silver and have a big “968” that cover the sill beneath the door opening. Before I could install them, (which was incredibly easy), they got lost in a move. Well I found them today and put them on. They look really nice. I miss all the cool stuff Flash used to make.
I got caught in the blizzard last week on my way to court in Lassen County and wound up rolling and totaling my Highlander. I was very fortunate to walk away with nothing but a few small cuts and scratches on the back of my right hand. As a result, the 968 has been my daily driver for the last ten days (and will be while I look for another Highlander Hybrid). It's been a while since I've spent this much time in the car. It sure is fun! What a pleasure to drive, almost feels like a slot car. Took it on some beautiful backroads today to a friend’s birthday jam party. Had room for my wife and me, two guitars in the trunk, and a small amp behind the seats. Not bad!
