• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    04-08 retro Question

    I have Morimoto Mini H1 6.0 HID retros in my headlights. One of them was damaged by someone while it was parked. I was going to order new light assemblies and do retros again. I was considering the Mini H1 7.0 or using the D2S. Has anyone retrofit the D2s in an 04-08 Grand Prix housing? How...

    A different HID projector thread/question - help

    Ok, I have had TRS HID projectors in my headlights for about 4 years. They have been good except the ballast randomly not firing, but that's another story for another day. One of my headlight assemblies was damaged recently to the point the housing is garbage. Is it possible to remove the...

    I am looking at buying HP Tuners for some things, but still want something to be able to read codes and such on cars without having to use HPTuners. There are tons of different options on Amazon. Which ones have you guys had good service from and which ones have been crap?

    Aftermarket headlight difference

    When I bought my GXP last fall the headlights were in rough shape. I wetsanded, polished, etc and they looked better (not perfect) and quickly were weathered again. I plan on replacing them and have been reading up on doing a retrofit. I was looking at Rockauto and noticed they have 3...

    Just got a call from the Vet I didn't want

    And I need to vent. Just got a call from the Veterinary Specialty Hospital to tell me they will have to remove one of my dog's gallbladders tomorrow. The meds had been working great for a few months. We knew this might eventually be needed, but hoped it would be further off. She never acts...

    Radiator Hose Clamp Question

    I am going to be replacing the hoses on my 07 GXP here soon. I was looking at it over the weekend to see what would be involved. Typically, I convert all of the hose clamps to regular old school clamps when I do this. I have always been able to get by taking the old clamps off with regular...
