You're listening to Magic 107.5, Kansas City's best mix of R&B?

You finally clipped the ground wire to the check engine light?

You sneezed all over the cluster and haven't bothered to clean it off?

Your cruise control is set to the speed at which I normally hit my driveway approach?

Your German car with wood-grain suggests you'd rather be driving a Jag, but you're not jaunty enough to deal with the smoky wires that would entail?

The fact that you'd never noticed the gauge cluster looks like an 80's boom box...and that you'll never NOT see it from today onward?

Holy crap. Now that the brake light switch seems to have resolved my intermittent ABS/PSM failure, my "soon" to-do list of deferred maintenance items is finished!

Speaking of, anybody notice anything unusual about this shot of my A8L's dashboard?

1. The car is running and in Drive, the cruise is set at 49 mph, but the speedometer is not reading anything. Cruise or speedo broken? Dead tranny? haha

2. All of the MIL are blown and/or bulbs removed?

3. Faux overlay is the same OEM provide for the Porsche 996?

If you cross your eyes and stare into the burl like it's a magic eye puzzle, you see this:

Well, I was gonna say that "No warning lights." Of course, the pic was taken at exact instant that the Adaptive Headlight Warning was blinking to the TPMS warning, so it is a little bit misleading. But, given I had literally every warning light on at the same time at one point, with multiple warnings fighting over the main warning space, this is a huge win.

Now, as to your smartass comments:

You're listening to Magic 107.5, Kansas City's best mix of R&B?
No

You finally clipped the ground wire to the check engine light?
Very good idea, but no

You sneezed all over the cluster and haven't bothered to clean it off?
Ha, good guess, but no

Your cruise control is set to the speed at which I normally hit my driveway approach?
Apparently true

Your German car with wood-grain suggests you'd rather be driving a Jag, but you're not jaunty enough to deal with the smoky wires that would entail?
Also, true

The fact that you'd never noticed the gauge cluster looks like an 80's boom box...and that you'll never NOT see it from today onward?
Strangely enough, also true

1. The car is running and in Drive, the cruise is set at 49 mph, but the speedometer is not reading anything. Cruise or speedo broken? Dead tranny? haha
All very valid assumptions, but no

2. All of the MIL are blown and/or bulbs removed?
Nope (well, not yet)

3. Faux overlay is the same OEM provide for the Porsche 996?
Could very well be true

Actually, I think Audi is coming out with this as a new symbol for their Heads-Up Display.
