 The "20 Jahre RTL"
 
 
 The german tv channel RTL rented the car for a tv show called "20 Jahre RTL". There was
 a part in it about Knight Rider, where they needed a K.I.T.T. replica for the show. Once
 arrived at the studio, the car immediately had to go into it. there was a big problem,
 because the car was to big, so there were a lot of difficulties to get it into the studio.

 

 

 They even had to lift the car up from behind, to slide the rear part of the car to one side,
 because the curve was to small to drive it into the studio. The opening was not much bigger
 then the wideness of the car itself, only a few inches / cm's! After a lot of hassle, they made
 it. I removed the front license plate which RTL first had covered with a piece of black card
 board. Then replacing the rear license plate by the "KNIGHT" one, and removing the rear
 mirror. Once that was than, the car was as good as ready for the show.

 

 

 The dashboard wasn't actually finished yet, so I had to fill it up with printouts and colored
 paper. Some lights behind it, and it looked great! The voice display was really functional.
 That was important, because K.I.T.T. had to talk in the show. A receiver in the trunk, with a
 wireless microphone was used to make the voice display work from a distance. This
 way it looked or the car itself really could talk.
