Anyone looked at these? http://www.northstarperformance.com/

They work on the luggage cover, and on the floorboards - thing is, I havent been able to find a way to get them from GM.

added. For some reason, I couldnt upload images the first time around....

Hey XLR peeps, I had broken several of my carpet grommets in my 06, and looked around for a way to replace them, but had no luck. As a result, I had a friend take the needed measurements and, after a few iterations, we were able to make some new ones that are very close to the originals in...

Which lights are you considering running lights?

Been driving mine as a daily for a few months now with this setup - no issues so far!

Just wanted to say thanks - I now have Bilsteins B8s with a set of Hotchkis front/rear swaybars on mine - made a HUGE difference, next up for the suspension will be springs (soon as I have a couple other things worked out). As a tip, you might want to take a look at the "lowering" bolts on your...

Yeah - I'm going through the documentation, (luckily) having been an IT guy for over 20 years, it isn't too complicated

Thermostat seems to have corrected the issue - so far. Also, my Tech II came in today, guess I have some learning to do on how to use it now, lol.

This is EXACTLY what mine is doing - it will work for a bit and then drops to zero, or doesn't work at all. Other times, it will work fine - the car is showing a CEL, but I can find nothing else wrong with it - and it ISNT overheating now. I'm going to replace my thermos sometime this week, if...

Well, I just threw down the money to order a tech II, hopefully I can work out the other issues I am seeing now - top no longer works, and the temp. gauge in the dash is sporadically reading nothing, then throwing a CEL code - I just replaced the thermostat a year ago, so ill be surprised if...

I tested it, and it is working again, no issues so far. The bruises have started to subside, and the car rides a lot better with the new bolts in - two had lost their bushings completely, and one had snapped, so it was needed.

A few days ago, I notice a strange sound coming from the front of my car. I look under the bonnet and don't see anything amiss, and the sound goes away. So, I get home yesterday and my car overheats in my driveway. This causes me a ton of concern. I put it in the air this morning and start...

Just an FYI GM WILL NOT sell you this loom - you must buy an entire headlight assy. which they seem to no longer have. Luckily, I was able to find a salvage yard that has one, and they were able to send it my way pretty cheaply. Looks like I'll be using salvage for more and more of the parts on...

A varmint of some sort apparently got into my XLR over the last few weeks and ate the wiring loom for the headlights on my 06 XLR - does anyone have the part number of it? I cant seem to find it anywhere..... I have called like six stealerships now, and they all want to sell me the loom for the...
