    Help! Fuel tank smell.

    Anyone have any idea where to get a new LH, driver side tank. Plenty of used one's on Ebay but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have an idea of what you're buying. Thanks

    Help! Fuel tank smell.

    I've searched here and not 100% sure what my problem is, but there is a fuel smell when tanks are full. I've tried to find and investigate a new fuel tank and they don't seem to be available.

    LED Replacement for DRL Turn Signals in Cadillac XLR - No Resistors - Replace or modify relay instead?

    I installed these into my 2007 and they work great. If you read the amazon ad it states the protective case is heat shielded to prevent damage to anything nearby. Amazon ad says they will not fit the XLR but they do perfectly and no hyperflash or warning...

    LED Replacement for DRL Turn Signals in Cadillac XLR - No Resistors - Replace or modify relay instead?

    LED's do run cool and must stay cool. Heat will kill the LED. The resistance heat from using LED's is mostly from resistance necessary to keep your car from telling you that you have a bulb out through the car's diagnostic system. I found a switch back DRL, turn signal LED that does not generate...

    Headlamp and tail light housing and lens, also include the DRL lens.

    The company I once worked for used to make these lamps. I've actually witnessed the tail lamps being made. We also made the license plate surround also.

    New Headlight 3D Printing Material

    Actually the grey on the lens is injected at the time of manufacture. The mold is a 2 color injection mold, grey polycarb then the clear polycarb. The lens is then sent into a coating oven to paint the lens with UV protectant. Without the uv coating process you're lens would not last very long...
