@kaj if you dont want to buy a dongle for its one time use (assuming none of your work), I will send you mine to borrow so you can code it out. Then just send it back when done.
Anyone know if there's a way to permanently keep the passenger mirror from tilting down, while in reverse? Moving the adjustment button over seems to work for now. Minor inconvenience.

Thanks, dude! I'm good. Three of mine are on that list. I'll play with it tomorrow, after work.

The mirror tilt is helpful if you have issues curbing your wheels. It helped me out when I was learning the dimensions of the X5.

Somewhat related question, how's the visibility out the back of the supra? Do you need to use your mirrors to back up?
From my experience 2 door sports cars aren't really great in that department. I'm just curious how the Supra is.

Getting caught up here on this thread so excuse the tardiness...
Not sure about the new generation Supras, but usually with BMWs (and most euro cars) the rotors are not serviceable, i.e. they don't get resurfaced, the pads and rotors are designed to wear together so when the pads wear down you do rotors. You can do whatever you like but if they are using the standard BMW rotors with the 2-piece hat, resurfacing would be kinda sketch move IMO, especially on a tracked car.....btw congrats on the Supra purchase!
That said, has anyone heard about the motor blow up on the new GR86 and how Toyota is (not) handling them?

Sounds like for now that car is a no-go track option till they get their manufacturing sorted...at least if you care about Toyota standing behind their product.
