in the 924S the interior of that ashtray is *illuminated* whenever the
headlights are turned on. It is a clever trick using a bulb inside the
center consol, that requires no wires running through the ashtray. At
night it gives the Porsche a more luxurious look.
I believe it would be a very simple matter to achieve the same effect in
a DeLorean. If anyone wants to see how it works in the Porsche, just
come to Cleveland. I will ask Patti to bring her Porsche to Saturday
night's banquet at the Science Center, or maybe the Crawford.
