I figured it out and took some photos. Basically I removed the arm and repositioned it.

Excellent; thanks for the photos! Took me a while to figure out the 2 mm gap and the pliers - that's how you lift the wiper arm off the spline to reposition it.

Car looks great, but its missing something...

Like a S-Mann Body Kit

All S-Mann products 25% off, free shipping on orders over $500. I even have a set of big brakes in stock that will give the lobster claws on your beautiful 997t a run for the their money ;)

But seriously, your garage is FULL of beautiful cars :P

Yeah, after fumbling a bit trying to get the wiper off, I got the idea of using the bolt. It was the only safe way to do it.

And thanks for pointing out that the wiper was "off". I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be that way.

Is the gizmo that is mounted where my radio is mounted a radio only, or does it do other functions? and if so, what?

If you look carefully (the pictures are a little fuzzy), some photos are of the menu screen. That lists all the functions.

Radio, Navigation, Phone (Bluetooth), Sirius Sat. Radio, iPod, DVD movies, Photos, Backup Camera, A/V in too.

The netting is for 09. Not sure what you mean about the symbols around the instrument shroud. Maybe a reflection of the camera flash?

My wiper sits down too. They all do, the ones I've seen. I'm not going to change it. When ice and snow build up on the wiper. It will start to hitting the bottom of that little spoiler, and make noise. There must be a reason, why it was set like this.
