    Dumb rear carpet and mirror question

    Got the mirror off and took a pic. It looks nothing like what I keep finding for how to repair. Looks like 2 tabs are broken. Anyone have any experience fixing this? Do I have to buy another mirror? Looks one of those is like $400.

    Dumb rear carpet and mirror question

    Months ago I took the carpet out of the trunk until I had my leak fixed. Yesterday I was putting it back in when I realized I don’t remember exactly where the hooks go that hold the mesh behind the seat in place. I thought with the top folding up I should make sure this is attached correctly...

    Rear view mirror removal

    I’ve got the same issue with my 2005. What years does the repair mentioned above apply to? The reason I ask is it appears the 04-05 mirror is different than the 06-09.

    XLR weight reduction

    Agreed. Any idea how much weight was saved removing the hydraulic stuff? Does the trunk open manually now? Would be cool if someone made a lightweight alternative to the hydraulics.

    XLR weight reduction

    Thought I’d find a thread on weight reduction but haven’t seen anything. Has anyone done a detailed thread for this? I know the seats are 61 lbs each so there’s a feasible start. What else can be done to cut weight without doing stuff like deleting door panels? Am I wasting my time even considering?

    Need suspension mechanic near Charlotte

    Anyone got a recommendation for someone familiar with XLR suspension and the suspension control module issue? My module is bad. I need someone to install Z06 shocks, Z06 rear sway bar, and lowering bolts to lower about an 1” in front and 1-1/2” in the rear.

    Hello...I’m stressing

    I thought I posted a new member post but I don’t see it so maybe it was another site. Anyway, I’ve got a champagne 05 base with about 72k miles I’ve had for almost 6 months. Cosmetically car is decent but I am freaking out about the suspension control module that is fried. I suppose I will go...

    Help! suspension control modual

    New question: There is plenty of info stating the Tech2 doesn’t show an F55 for the XLRs. I’ve also read that the mag ride was previously called F45 by GM. Has anyone / will anyone see if a Tech2 will show a F45? If it does perhaps the mag ride can be turned off unlike previously thought.

    Help! suspension control modual

    Was anyone successful on the “we are working on a module that will allow the use of corvette shocks when the module is damaged”? I am under the impression it is possible to use Casper simulators but you will still have errors such as the limited speed to 80 and the plugs have to be modified to...
