I am genuinely unsure where I should put this so it's going here.

Hard to get at your fuel pump assembly without dropping the (always full, of course) tank?

I debated the same thing when I was a 97+ XJ driver. Fortunately MJs have the sender on the side of the tank and Subarus all seem to have an access hatch from the factory, though.

Not many people remember Condorman from the early 1980, but the villain drives a 935 and his henchmen all have 911 Turbos.

Yeah, I didn't even realise they'd changed to injection when I first saw one like that.

But these ones are perfect for a load of car applications that you want to look "right".
