    headlight sensor

    Sorry for the delay. Don't know how or why but the little "dome" on top of the sensor is gone. the sensor still works but the actual guts are exposed. Seems like a lot of work to replace the sensor. Any thoughts?

    headlight sensor

    So I'm looking at a "picture" and it shows 2 screws on the left and right side and 2 on the side facing the consoles. Take them out and tilt the upward, reach under and remove the sensor. Correct? Just making sure I got it right. Thanks.

    headlight sensor

    I'm assuming its a headlight sensor. On the upper dash pad toward the windshield. Its on a separate metal grid on the dash pad. Question is, does that metal grid , with the sensor on it, come off separately from the padded dash? Thanks!!

    steering wheel air bag

    dash mat

    Question for anybody using a dash mat. Which one did you use, and did it have a cutout for the HUD, and did it cut down the reflection on the windshield? Depending on what time it is, it's an sob to see. Thanks

    accessary

    I need some techi advice. I'm putting a back up camera on my ride and rather than dig into the console and dash, is there a wire I can tap into the rear deck or trunk that will only be "hot" when the key is on? Can't find schematics for those areas. Was thinking about the antenna module. Any...

    Upper shift cable connection linkage bushing repair

    Appreciate advice from both of you. As soon as the humidity goes below 95%, I'll look at the rear one first, (fingers crossed), and take it from there.

    Important! Transmission Shifter Repair Kit $24

    I must be missing something. I have the same problem ( have a kit). Why not make a brass (or bronze) bushing and use a stainless steel bolt and lock nut? Plus a stainless washer on both sides?

    Upper shift cable connection linkage bushing repair

    So you can replace the front cable bushing from inside the car? Seems easier than crawling under the car. I've been into that area before. Thought about putting zippers on the console cover. lol

    shifter

    2004 xlr. So I go for a ride, everything works great. I pull in the driveway, put it in reverse and back up. No problem. Put it in drive, shifter moves to drive, but the transmission is still in reverse. No matter where I move the shifter, the tranny's still in reverse. ON top of this, the top's...

    seat covers

    No oem's are available. I just received the drivers side bottom (shale), from richmond autoupholstery. It looks identical to the stock one. It has long nylon channels attached to it and a few hog rings. Do you have to remove the seat to take the old one off? Thanks

    led headlights

    Thanks micky, I was confused about which bulbs are which. Everything works right now so I'll just leave it alone. Cross that bridge when I get there. Hate those blue headlights.

    led headlights

    old question, I guess. Headlights both work, but it seems inevitable, they go bad. Have read about changing to leds. Do the bulb sockets twist and pull out? If you change to leds, what about the ballast? Am familiar with electrical circuits but haven't looked at these. If doable, are they...

    Fuel gauge

    Filled the fuel tanks. Started the car and the fuel gauge shows approx 3/4 tank. I was told the fuel level sensors in the tank were bad. Had BOTH sensors replaced at the Caddy dealer. He tested them and said the new ones were working. Filled the fuel tank. Started the car and the fuel gauge went...
