no, the rear fog button is on the left under the cluster.
the button next to the sunroof button is an immobilizer. It was built in from the previous owner Wink

When I press it, then I can't start the engine. Laughing

There are no fakes with photoshop or such progs Wink
The pictures are "private" on ipernity... so you can't see them...

In this parkdeck I shot some photos with my sedan some xyears ago.

I found a really rare part! I never knew, that was sold such a part.
I found it in the near of Frankfurt (Main). Today I drove to the items location.
The seller said, that the part was brandnew and only was outlying in the garage since 1990.
Nice to see, that the badge with the partnumber is in good condition, too  Razz

Two pictures:



Regards!

I don't know, how to discribe this situation, correct.
But: I parked my ED7 in Kaiserslautern (some US guys know that City as "K-Town" Wink).
And as I came back, I saw another ED7 right beside of my little red one.
So: Kaiserslautern red and white Laughing
