    Headlights.

    Had to laugh. Thanks. As I said I can't boil water and at 72 I would never try to repair the tailight myself. I will stick to the restoration and maintence end. Will get in touch with Travis. My XLR-V is my baby and has been brought to life from a salvage. No rear damage or bags blown not even...

    Headlights.

I ended up with a pair of working early headlights(04-05) with the 5 pin pigtails and 1 passenger(L) 10 pin. I am currently in need of a drivers 10 pi and...

    Important! shifter assembly

    shifter I own a shop codes all lead to the shifter. I cannot find one in the US or Canada. The dealer had it for 2 weeks and I had to call about it to be told oh yea it's the shifter they said it was available(LOL) going to pick it up tomorrow another week and counting. I will probably tear it...

    Important! shifter assembly

    sorry ...heres the play by play. When I stop and shift to park the trans locks in park but the dash says shift to park. this stops the electronics from going to sleep and the battery will discharge over night. It also will not let me put the top down(thinks I'm in gear). So next day I have to...

    Cat plugged.

    cats sorry did not mean to ruffle so many feathers. I ordered and have installed the #s I listed and am getting better response. I did my research and found they fit and saved at least $1000 and even lost some weight not to mention a couple of radiators under the hood. I was not trying to get...

    Cat plugged.

    magna-flo part numbers I ordered them on June 6th got them on the 10th direct fit #s 50784 and 50785 and I can attest to the reduced heat, The short tube header design improves flow and the heat flows down and out instead of soaking into the cast to radiate. I bought mine as a salvage and it...

    Battery keeps running down

    battery running down I just tracked mine down to a shifter problem. The car doesn't find park and will not go to sleep, but when it ran all the way down it would reset the problem and run another 3 to 4 cycles before it hit again. Nice to know the problem but GM has the part(#15217064)...
