I'm sure glad I did!

You are going to love it, at least in the Spring when it warms back up a bit. Some mechanical skills will be a plus, but with a 2007 you should not have the problems of the earlier models.

Well the skid plate/radiator support frame can not support the weight of the front of car, that's why it gets damaged. These little wheels will just apply the same stress to the frame so I don't think that is an improvement. Probably will just not sound as bad while the front of the car is...

Not the first time This is not the first time Cadillac has abandoned their customers. Take a look at this Allante' website. Allante Source | Home Parts have been scarce for years and several people have made a business of buying and scrapping good cars just to sell the parts.

There is a screw right at the top of the reservoir that can be removed. You will need a small funnel and some rags to keep from making a mess.

XLR Headlights Interesting, I have three older GMC Savana full size vans and the headlights were getting fogged over and looked bad. I found replacements on E-bay and purchased several sets for less than $85 per set. The new ones look identical to the OEM ones that I removed and after...

Guide Corp. makers of XLR headlights and tail lights halts production in 2007 This explains the problem in obtaining new headlight and taillight assemblies for the XLR. Apparently GM never found a new supplier and has just decided to abandon XLR owners. I guess they are just not interested...

What caused a new tire to fail like that?

I think anyone with XLR parts supply problems should lodge a complaint with Cadillac Customer Service 1-800-458-8006. Maybe if they hear from enough of us they may actually conclude that lack of product support may affect our decision on buying a future Cadillac product. I know it sure has...

You should get a warning on the DIC before the tire goes flat unless you hit something really big and loose all the air at once. We stopped for lunch and when I started the XLR back up I immediately got a warning of low tire pressure, walked around the car and saw one of my tires was really...

The HUD is almost useless anyway if you wear polarized sunglasses like I do. I never notice the radio display on the HUD and during the day I can not see the radio display with my sunglasses on. How is the Kenwood display visibility in bright sunlight as compared to the original radio...

I like the idea of high voltage on the door switches. Might be an effective way of theft prevention.

Ordered two more.

I had a DTC showing an airbag problem on the passenger side a while back and traced it to a connector below the seat. Unplugged it and sprayed contact cleaner on the contacts and it has worked fine ever since. Had the same problem with the wife's STS and solved it the same way. The contacts...
