    Deck Bumpers

    Yesterday while trying to get in my car via the rear deck lid :rolleyes: I noticed this gooey mess near the corner of the lid. After searching this site I came across the problem with the deck lid bumpers, part number 10346849, disintegrating/melting. Apparently this is another part that has...

    Help! PLATINUM EDITION HOOD PART NUMBER

    I was interested in installing a V hood on my base 06 however I did not want to use the V grille. I wanted to use the chrome grill. The V hood comes with holes along the front edge for mounting the chrome trim piece that goes well with the V grille but not so well with a base chrome grille. My...

    2006 interior color question

    I too have an 06 with a shale interior. And even though my interior is in great shape I'd like to know how this works out for you for future reference. Thanks

    hard top control modules.

    Well I got this email yesterday from GmPartsDirect.com. Hello and thank you for your order with GMPartsDirect.com. Unfortunately the part you ordered is on a national back order at this time. GM has cancelled the order since there is no ETA available. We are very sorry for the inconvenience...

    hard top control modules.

    Good to know that these modules are now available. Even though I presently don't need one I went ahead and ordered one from GmPartsDirect.com. Just in case.... Total cost including shipping is $564.47. Hopefully they were still available when I placed the order! Thanks again for the heads up LTS.

    Extra Parts???

    Thank you for the time you're taking to try to help me out. Looking at the diagram you've provided it's a little too cluttered to make any distinction as to what is what. If I had to guess I'd guess maybe 5. I know that the pump and sender connections are good. All I know is that it's a two wire...

    Extra Parts???

    I appreciate your response. I'm not overly concerned about the clip and I know that many harnesses are made to fit multiple vehicles and sometimes there are leftover connectors. I just wish I had noticed it and made a note of it when I took it apart. This has been such a PITA job that the...

    Extra Parts???

    While in the process of installing my passenger side fuel tank I came across this connector that I can't find the recipient to. I find it hard to believe that it's just been hanging there and was never connected to anything. I've looked all around and see nothing to plug it in to. Any ideas...

    Draining the gas tanks

    Yes the crossover tube appears to be the biggest challenge in doing this repair. I'll definitely pay special attention to that. Thanks for the input.

    Draining the gas tanks

    I'm about ready to drop the tanks on my 06 so that I can replace the pump and sending units due to a nonfunctioning gas gauge. And yes I've tried Techron for the last four fill ups. I don't want to put miles on it just to empty the tanks. I saw on a Vette site that a guy disconnected the fuel...

    exhaust

    That's one sweet looking exhaust Cobratoo. Not only does the exhaust look great the undercarriage looks especially clean. Did you detail it or what? I recently added a rear sway bar to mine and was considering going over mine but after seeing yours I'm doing it for sure. Plus I'm getting ready...

    Help! 2006 XLR Hardtop going up and down very slowly

    Have you checked your hydraulic oil level? That's where I would start.

    Oil leak

    I'm not sure but sometimes I believe they also go by the age of the fluid. Sort of like a warranty. So many miles or so many years. I just changed the plugs on my 2002 4.6L F-150 that had just under 60,000 miles which is when they call for them to be replaced. They were the original 16 year old...

    Help! Cadillac XLR Headlights

    I may be naive but I don't believe you absolutely need a patent to remanufacture the headlight. Just an old headlight to disassemble to form molds from and the resources to do so. I have seen others comment that General Motors/Cadillac wouldn't reproduce them because there was no money in it...

    Rear Sway Bar Bushings

    If I were to do it all over again I guess the better route would be to go for one of the vette setups. I just like to keep it Caddy when I can and didn't realize it would be such a pain finding the bushings. Cubby558 also educated me about not always taking the diagrams that they show on these...

    Rear Sway Bar Bushings

    Problem Solved Just found the rear sway bar bushings I was looking for at a dealership in Grapevine, TX! Spoke to a very helpful parts rep guy named Mike who actually even took a picture of them and sent it to me. A dealership in IL actually guided me to Mike. Mike didn't know that the part had...
