    Instrument Cluster Lit Up! Any Ideas?

    I had many of the same "messages" pop up even though my car fired right up and the battery seemed strong. It wasn't until I started using a battery tender that the messages went away! Get a new battery and a tender!

    Do you see XLRs??

    Saw two of them! Two weeks ago I saw a red one on Main St. in Spring Hill, TN and this past Sunday saw a blue one flying down I-55 south of Memphis. Of course I wasn't driving mine either time. Even though I have one I still gawk and stare like a 16 yr. old whenever I see one on the road...

    Help! Use 2004 headlight in 07

    i give up! In case anyone wants to attempt an older (2004-5) year 5 pin headlight into a newer 10 pin xlr, I don't think it can be done unless you're willing to cut and splice wires. The connections coming out of the ballast are different so no chance at swapping the entire harness/bulbs. It...

    Help! Use 2004 headlight in 07

    After reading how 04 lights will work in an 07, "just use your own harness", I found a used 04 headlight assembly to replace my "crazed" 07. Anyone accomplished this feat without purchasing a harness that converts 5 pin to 10 pin? I thought I would be able to unclip connections and swap out...

    MP3 / iPod

    Thanks Thanks for the pics. I completely forgot about the compartment between the seats! One of CC's posts in this thread mentioned removing the storage bin under the armrest so I was fixated on that. I never use the one between the seats, forgot it was there. Thanks!

    MP3 / iPod

    i want to do this! On a recent road trip I hit a bump on I-40 just as my cd changer was changing discs. Needless to say, that was it for the changer. Anyway, I took the radio out and dismantled the changer and recovered my cd's, no small job! Not sure if the changer works and I don't plan to...

    Help! Wheel well push pins

    Is there a way to remove the black pushpins that secure the plastic housing in the wheel wells without destroying the pushpins so I can reuse them? Thanks.

    Help! 07 XLR Left headlight

    I have been tracking the SMC site and watching the headlights in your link. They have had 5 pairs in stock for several months then just last week they disappeared! Almost as if one person bought all 5 pairs. Did anyone on our site scoop them up?

    Think I'll keep him.

    Tender Smoothran, CC has already typed in prior post a very detailed explanation of WHAT a tender is and WHY you need it. So have others. It is a good thing to get comfortable with the SEARCH function, mainly because almost everything about our cars has been asked and answered. With search...

    Hose Leak - Need Part Number

    To keep or not to keep? That is the big question, keep or not keep? I love the car and think I would be sick if I sold it and sick years later wishing I never sold it! But the whole disappearing parts issue is scary. Hey CC, you seem to be "content" no longer owning your XLR. When did you...
