If a Rear Anti-Sway bar is installed, be sure to get an immediate realignment of the rear Suspension.
As you loosen the bolts you can see and hear things move. Assemble the links on the ground before installing the bar.
I ran a hidden #10 insulated wire to the + terminal of the battery which...
For those wanting the Norev blue retracting Hardtop model, there is one on Ebay Toronto. It is at $115 with 15 days to go. They are a bit over 4" long I believe. 1:43 scale?

Mesh Grille
I am using mesh from an anti-splatter frying pan cover. I found one with very fine openings. The holes are directional and the big problem is getting an exact fit even with templates. I use a hole punch for the Caddy crest.
My grille does not seem to be plastic but it may be...
2009 V
This is the second one Leggat's have had in during the past 2 years. Possibly Cashmere.
Looks a different shade than mine. I am located near that Dealership. I can send you photos if you give me your email addy, or perhaps you have already seen it.

Navigation disc
I was looking for a Nav disc today. GM Service Manager said to go to navdisc.com. He thought about $200. Cannot be purchased from GM.
Anyone have a disc even if outdated for sale?
Any GM disc will work I was told.

Die Cast
I was very fortunate to buy a red one By Mattel - Hot Wheels to match my 2008 last year for $20, boxed then, not now.
9-1/2" long, front wheels steer,hood opens Base Model.
Sellers wife was 'housecleaning' his collection!

Norev Die Cast
Great. I would like to see photos of it as I have a friend in the UK who could watch for me.
I often wondered about your Crossfire, particularly the name as it was used by GM on their 1982 Corvette engine with Fuel Injection.
I would have thought it would be trademarked. I...
Adaptive Cruise Control
My '08 is the 'base' model with only the 'V' grilles unfortunately.
I haven't removed the covers beside the air intake to check, but I do believe the ACC sensors are the ones visible in the bumper facia.
I will check the Service Manual sometime to be sure. I don't...
Sensors
I am not sure, but I believe they are for the Adaptive Cruise Control, which works very well. It is a 2008 model.
I had read somewhere that those sensors were behind the opaque plastic covers on either side of the lower grille - perhaps on earlier models.
Apparently those sensors...
Not for everyone of course! I had some 16ga. (0.060"±) Stainless bent to about 87º and formed to fit the double compound lines of the lower splitter of the XLR bumper. Not an easy task!
I had the leading edge buffed as smooth as possible and drilled and deburred holes that tightly fit the SS...
