Don't blame you for getting them. SMC is showing one driver's side left for $1600! Just a few weeks back they advertised the pair for around $2200. My 06 has a fair amount of crazing and only 45k miles. I would love to replace them but cant justify $2500 at this point. They do look nice in...

Now you're just teasing us. Is that your spare set?

Just for fun, if half of the XLR's needed lights, that's roughly 7500 pairs or 15,000 lights. At $1000 each your looking at $15 mil. gross. You would think some aftermarket company could produce a workable replacement and still make a decent buck. Car companies routinely buy competitor...

Used to like the hood ornament on my old Devilles, but on an XLR? No way!

Thanks That explains why I couldn't find the turn off in the DIC options. Oh boy, answer so simple I never considered it. Thank you Zen, Nerk and Rexster. I hope my next question doesn't ask where the brake pedal is!

I've been reading all the technical posts, especially the headlight related ones. Like many I have some "burn-in" caused by the yellow DRL's. In one of the posts I read the suggestion to shut them off as a way to prolong the lens life. A bit embarrassed but I looked through the manual and...

Did you ever figure this out? I have the same issue!

Wow, nice gift for your dad! Thanks for the well wishes. My son is a senior in high school so I'm thinking good grades equals awesome prom car!!

Successful replacement! In case anyone has this issue I want to give back to this site that has helped me tremendously. I just replaced a blown woofer in driver's door of my 07. Cubby's instructions are accurate. After removing the 3 bolts (courtesy light and in the door handle area, all 3...

Good to know. Thank you!

Thanks CC. I had them cleared but was wondering if that was necessary. I'm thinking I better call the dealer to see about the recent "gas leak" recall bulletin that was posted on this site. Sounds like that may be causing the light if not the fuel cap. Appreciate your help.

My 2007 revealed two codes: 0442 and 0455 which I guess are evap leaks. I replaced the gas cap to see if that does the trick. My question is if we assume the gas cap is the fix, will the codes disappear because of the fix or do they also need to be cleared with the Tech 2 to get rid of the...

I assumed not gas cap since it came on before I needed to fill up. And when I did fill up, cap was on tight. But I suppose new cap won't hurt. Thanks for the help.

Thanks for reply. light not flashing. Probably best to locate a Tech 2. Thanks.

MY son has a 2003 Alero, check engine came on so he went to Auto Zone for a free diagnostic, code read catalytic convertor, we replaced, done! My engine light has popped up on my 2007 XLR. I don't believe it's gas cap and car seems to run fine. Question, can Auto Zone accurately diagnose my...

Thanks Appreciate the confirmation. Thanks.

Have had my black 07 XLR for a couple months with no battery issues but have been reading of the issues that arise with a low/dead battery. Mine is not a daily driver so I just purchased Deltran Battery Tender (car is about to sit for a couple weeks). I assume I will connect Red to Red and...

Hi all! Just bought Black 2007 XLR and looking forward to learning from the experts. Thanks!

Thank you! Just bought 2007 XLR yesterday. After some trouble getting door to open I found this site and post. Cleaned finger pad connectors in 5 min. just like you described. Thank you!
