Brother Johnny, have you ever heard of "The Sequoian"? It was a special trim for bugs from a dealership in Visalia, I believe if I am not mistaken, most trim was wood.

Scored this on the samba the other day it’s a red/gold Hornbutton fits my Gt steering wheel nice but going to try and fit it to me of my Vdm wheels I think it would look much sweeter on the vdm wheel

Going thru some old parts boxes I took out of one of my storage places and found this early mirror with an original empi of New York sticker on the visor. I must of bought this back in the early 90's and forgot about it LOL

My NOS deluxe wheel arrived yesterday. I’ve already ordered a horn button for it and will get my replacement insert from Guillaume.

I’m not sure what’s more rare. The NOS deluxe, the Riverside 500, or the NOS and uncracked Coach.

I haven’t been able to find any info, but did EMPI do a red horn button? Or is this an old repop?

Any info would be appreciated
