Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    2005 running lights/Amber turn signals-turn off?

    Is there a way to turn off the orange running lights on the front of a 2005 Grand Prix? I think they look kinda stupid during the daylight hours.

    Turn signals

    On a 05GT are the turn signals in the fog lamps the only ones for the front? Seems kinda odd the Amber corner lights don't flash.

    iPhone 5a as a hotspot

    Has anyone used a iPhone 5s as a hotspot? My needs would be checking email only and some minor web browsing when wi-fi is not available. This would only happen a few times a month or less. Verizon has a free 5C with 8g of memory. Is this enough, I am not big into streaming or pictures, just...

    On-Star Antennae vs auto car wash

    Took my new to me 05 GT through an automatic car wash last night to get rid of all the salt from the messy MN roads. Can a brush type car wash damage the On-Star antennae on top of roof? Didn't think about it till after I got home.

    05 Grand Prix GT warped cowl

    Spent today looking over my new to me 05 GP GT. Went to check the cabin air filter and noticed the cowl has 2 spots where it does not even touch the windshield on the passenger side. Is this normal? Having a little buyers remorse, but I upgraded 2 years and 60,000 less miles. The 05 is loaded...

    I have been test driving a 2005 Grand Prix GT. It has almost every option but remote start. The car has the auto/digital HVAC system. When in the auto mode and I start the car the a/c light is on. Is this normal? I tried starting the car with the temp setting maxed out at 90 and got the same...

    03GT stock air filter hose

    How far should the tab at the end of the hose fit into the 2 grooves on the filter housing? I just changed my air filter and cannot get the tab all the way into the groove. I did not pay attention to how far it was on before I took the tube off. Will try and post a pic later.
