Cleaning: I’ve seen APC recommended. I’ve just used waterless wash and a microfiber cloth, along with a Qtip for tight spots, to gently rub & clean it (at least for spots that just washing the car won’t reach). Lubricant: GM recommends, & I’ve seen others use both for XLR’s & other hard top...

Elkhart lake blue. Good luck getting any lost money from me. :cool:

Hawkeye, to ease your mind about the headlight fogging, both of mine have done that as long as I can remember, pretty sure since I got it 8 years ago. Doesn’t seem to matter whether the car has been dry as a bone or not. I’m sure it’s not great for the lights etc. but I haven’t had any...

Steve, you are just forever finding new ways to live life on the edge. Merry Christmas gift to yourself by surviving that!

No, the snow line is west of us. Nasty nor’easter rain/wind though, which is why I can’t get my XLR until tomorrow - 3d brake light is completely removed so the paint job would be easier, which also makes it easier to trash electrical components with rain! How about you guys - got snow?

My fast red XLR has finally had the paint fixed from the rear ender & comes home tomorrow! :party

Dd you find this thread?: LED Turn Signals/DRLs. Good write up that we used. P.S., no findy OEM radio yet

On my ‘06 it’s a black box on the passenger side at the top of the windshield. :wave:

I see in the background that Steve appears to be still alive ... Christmas gift from you to let him survive? :chuckle I was waiting for disaster to happen to my XLR as Mike out of the blue abruptly decided to replace the trunk struts ... found me and told me he needed help ... which consisted...

Turn the radio up louder. :chuckle Don’t necessarily mean to be smart aleck, but once I got my seat fully leather treated it started squeaking, I think it’s rubbing on the arm rest. It hasn’t bothered me enough to worry about figuring it out, as I only hear it when the top is up and radio...

Asked my husband who did this on ours - not sure how to fit what he did to your question, but maybe the following will help (first is link to forum write up, last thing is the instructions from the place he bought from): LED Turn Signals/DRLs

I haven’t heard of anybody even considering doing that swap out, so I unfortunately have no idea. We swapped out the entire unit for a Kenwood, so I do know about that. While it’s a different vehicle, a guy I work with who has an engineering degree was going to swap out the broken screen on...

We can’t fully understand all the ways we’re blessed, even in the worst of times. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

You guys deserve it & wow is that great of Army Al!

I just traded in a car I’ve owned 5 years (NOT my XLR!!!). It’s had 3 warranty repairs (minor), some things checked that came back with the dreaded “could not duplicate” or “that’s normal,” & had all oil changes/tire rotations done at the dealer (except the last one). The car was reliable &...

You’re right, those are cool pics! I keep wondering whether the C7 (or some aspect of it) is going to be slid over Cadillac’s way ...

Try looking in the body section of the manual (my husband has looked this up before but couldn’t remember offhand). BUT, be very careful messing with those adjustments. My trunk lid hits lower and rubs on the rear bumper on one side, & my dealers XLR tech refused to touch it because the top...

Have Xpel on my XLR now. Was sold on it after putting it on a STS I had - after 5 years on that car & 80,000 miles the Xpel was still in perfect condition, no yellowing etc.

Riff raff fee for ya! :laugh: Actually, thanks for passing that along - I’ll put Mike on it for us.

So insurance is finally going to pay ... they called & said they didn’t even have the make and model of my car :( When I told them, the rep said “X what?” :chuckle Methinks the adjuster is going to know nuth-ing about a XLR!
