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

    Entire car for parts ZZP downpipe, roof rails, special edition hood, etc..

    The right rear break line went on me and I fell into a newer project. The rockers and strut mounts are solid and the only rust on the car is the passenger rear. I cut the rust out but didn't weld in replacements. I have honestly replaced about 90% of the car over the past couple years. Most...

    W-bodies missing from you pull its. The end is near.

    I've been hitting the local yards and noticed that almost all the places that had an abundance of 97-04 Grand Prix's etc are gone. A good amount of Bonnevilles and 05+ Grand Prix's are hanging around still. I guess the amount of people looking for parts on these cars is getting lower and they...

    Any benefit to shorter dog bones?

    During my weekly trips to the you pull it I found a couple Montanas. My search results have been varied between it's awesome!, and it through off the geometry raise the engine as it blows all the other suspension components off while causing exhaust leaks. I'd throw $10 at it as long as it...

    Curved 3.4 Monte Carlo Strut bar ok to use on GTP?

    Picked up a strut tower bar from the yard for $8 off a 3400 Monte Carlo. It has an bend in it to accommodate the alternator in the 3400's. Would this throw off anything if I installed it or should I just wait for a straight bar? It bolt pattern doesn't look uneven on the top of the strut towers...

    Retrofitting 40th anniversary scoops?

    I found a pair of 40th anniversary scoops and have a general idea oo what would be involved it getting them to work. Cutting the hood, reinstalling the drip tray, and some 3M tape will get the job done. Are there any write ups or measurements that anyone knows of online? Or if someone could...

    Wiring in passanger rear door lights.

    I just added passenger rear door panel lights and noticed there was no good writeups online. The first step to the install is removing the trim pieces on each side of the middle door jams. 3 or 4 long screws on each side and you are golden. I next removed the rear passenger courtesy lights...

    The correct way to replace steering wheel buttons.

    All of the posts online said to just pull the buttons and work with the minuscule amount of wiring. The easiest way to do it is to pull the air bag and release some of the wiring behind it to have more slack. It honestly took me about 5 minutes to pull the airbag after watching this youtube...

    2001 Grand Prix Se Parts Car.

    I am taking my old car to the junkyard within the next two weeks. Everything that I needed I removed for my GTP. $250 takes the entire car. 208k miles, Runs, drives, AC worked until I removed the pressure sensor for my GTP. I also have a set of uncut needles from 04+ Grand Prix in perfect...

    Replaced fuel sender now fuel leak.

    I just spent the better part of 3 hours ripping apart two grand prixs to make one functional gas gauge. The rubber o ring was an absolute nightmare trying to keep up when placing the fuel pump back in. I just went to fill the car and it was hemorrhaging gas from above the tank. I know I am going...

    EBCM interchangability 98 GTP and 98 Regal GS

    My local you pull it has a Regal GS and I was wondering if anyone knew off hand if the EBCM was interchangeable with a GTP. The car was still locked and I didn't have an opportunity to check the part # on the module. Thanks!!

    1999 GTP AC clutch won't engage no power to relay position 30

    I spent the better part of 3 hours trouble shooting my ac clutch. I finally determined that I am not getting any power to the relay on the lower terminals. My understanding is that if you bridge 30 to 87 it will close the circuit and engage the AC clutch bypassing the high and low pressure...

    My $600 GTP daily and other toys.

    I have had a 2001 Grand Prix SE since new and put about 210k on it. The old girl was getting tired and I found this 1999 GTP on craigslist. The car had a new transmission with less than 2k miles on it and generally in good shape. The problem was it wouldn't run. I luckily enough had a spare L67...
