Hi Everyone,
First of all, thanks for all of your posts. Being a brand new owner of BDR cobra...I am thrilled to now officially feel like an insider!

I have a couple of questions though.

1. Heat Shields: My ceramic coated pipes do not have them and I am worried about my wife burning her leg (or even a valet driver). Should I buy a ceramic coated heat shield to match the pipes or would stainless steel look better? Do you know of any good sources?

2. Radio: I know these mutha's are LOUD and in a way its pointless. However, I MISS having a stereo and I don't want to jack anything up in the car or the dashboard and make the thing look dorky (especially a Backdraft). Does anyone have a good recommendation of where to mount it?

3. Insurance: In California, we register these things as a special constructed vehicle with a year of manufacture (mine's 2005). However, does that eliminate the chance for me to insure it as a classic car?

4. Parts and Accessories: Is Finish Line Accessories the only online store that sells cobra stuff (besides forums and ebay)?

I look forward to your responses and being a part of you guys! Pics are coming soon!

Mike
