About a year ago when i was going to have my final gears installed, i called a reputable differential shop. it went as follows.
Me: "How much would it be to install final drive gears?"
Tech: "On what car?"
Me: "Honda s2000:
Tech: "Uh I don't think we do that. Honda's don't have a differential you have to change out the transmission gears for front wheel drive car."
Me: "I have an s2000 though. Its rear wheel drive. How much to install the gears?"
Tech: "I don't understand. Rear wheel drive?"
Me: "Never mind you have a nice day"

i second that. never top down
I'd expect SLK55's would be top down. SL's are more top down type owners.
Never seen a CLK top down. I hate to see convertibles with the roof up. Especially when the conditions permit. Early evening etc
HAND THEM BACK I SAY

Was at Wawa with the top down, about to start up and back out and some older guy was walking in the store and asks
Old dude: "That thing get good gas mileage?"
Me: Smiling "It might if I didn't drive the shit out of it"
Old dude: Confused, possibly angry, just says nothing and walks inside
Me: LOL
