Ugh!!!

Oh, wait a minute, that was not the question.

So sorry.

I guess they should be easy to install.

But that begs the question...Por que?

Thought it was Vancouver? Either way, I seem to recall them being a dodgy operation...

Actually, I've had a thought - could these be modified to move left and right as you move the steering wheel, like the old Citroen DS and the new VW's?

Add in the up and down movement mechanism from a european car, and you'd improve these dramatically, I reckon.
