Anyway, just curious if/or how you get a waiver for some of the car regulations like the rear fog lights and side fender blinkers.
I purchased my Tacoma through a military only program Toyota has set up over here. I sent in my request in July of '05 and picked up my truck at Bremerhaven off the boat in September of '05. Peeled the plastic off, poured in some gas and hit the Autobahn to find out where the governor was. That was 30,000 miles ago, and 50% of those are over 100MPH. I wheel a lot too, but you have to get there somehow. Being a G.I. I don't have to mess with Euro laws at all. I can run open headers with flamethrowers and the Polezei (cops) can't do squat. It's kind of cool, but they still pull me over a lot just to look at the truck. Bastards.
