Owning SSes for 50 Years
|
In Germany the SS might bring back memories of the Nazi SS or "Schutzstaffel" and although not absolutely forbidden, it is regarded as an evil moniker. So, they don't want to lose a sale because of that. I would have thought they would think up another 2 letter emblem to denote the higher HP Camaro.

Correct, it is even not allowed to use combinations with "SS" or similar nazi abbreviations (e.g. HJ = Hitler Youth...) on a personalized plate here in GER.

Are you sure about power folding mirrors. Mine does not have them, the owner's manual does not state it either. If they're there, how can you make them work?

I might be mistaken - I only had 45 mins with the car on a test drive & could have sworn I'd seen a mirror fold button in the door. Apologies if I'm mistaken.

Also, what are the chances we could get all the part numbers listed for the mirrors, rear brake lights, lower reverse, cables and get this pinned?

So the reverse lights become amber signals and they add the center bumper mounted reverse light. Definitely a better setup.
Looking at the Europe manual (which is annoyingly not searchable), it says it should also include a rear fog lamp. Wonder where that's hiding? http://www.chevrolet.co.uk/pdf/manua...1_3_GB_web.pdf I don't see anything about the mirrors being power folded. |

Ok, I'm subscribing to this thread simply to wait for whomever can post the part numbers for the Euro-spec side view mirror complete assemblies. Left and right.

Those side mirrors may have more doo dads, but I can't believe some of you would want them. I mean they are huge looking...when compared to ours. No thanks, they are the same size as my wife's truck mirrors lol.
I like the clear side markers though...especially on white. |

Flame me all you want for having granny mirrors. I'll pay extra to get them over the thin, tiny, standard North American mirrors our Camaros come with. They don't even fold. |
