Re: What did you do to your Crossfire today?
I got mine out of the storage unit Saturday and went for a beautiful drive on some of my favorite country roads. Absolutely perfect weather, 78 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. I would suspect around here we get maybe 20 or 25 days a year like this. Once I got home I did some minor detailing and tried a new tire glaze that is suppose to stand up to 100 car washes. Since I never actually wash the car (usually just use a spray detailer) this stuff should last quite a while. It actually dries to the touch.
The wife suggested we go out for dinner in the car so it was time for cruise #2. Drove for another hour before deciding where to eat. All in all a excellent day all around.

Following the crossfire new owner plan and getting there. RCM soldered, sticky ignition fixed, replaced crankshaft sensor with orginal and have new ignition key. Also some headlight bulbs replaced - need stronger lights suggestions welcome - and need to replace driver side lift switch cover but am only find grey abs dark grey? Where do I find interior color codes? Drive her last night and she runs sweet. Getting close to 100k and will do the services of oil, radiator flush and manual trans and rear end fluid change(?) any links give me on that appreciated. Debating on soft tint not real dark and affordable but good vented rotors.

Super cool LED trunk light strip
So for those who are interested in a super simple led mod. Here's what I used....
https://www.superbrightleds.com/more...528/1466/2897/
I punched a small hole right next to the trunk light, fished it through and wired it up.
Replaced the bulb with this LED bulb...

And this is the result. I will add a night time shot later tonight when it gets dark, but its pretty sweet. And it was dead simple, just don't cross the wires over the brass lines, or you will short it and blow a 10a fuse.

Had the brake fluid replaced, this fixed the intermittent BAS/ESP light issue.
Over the past two weeks have had the headliner redone, had the center link, idler arm and steering dampener replaced. Along with 4 new KYB shocks, new Bridgestone Pole Position tires all around, alignment and MGP brake caliper covers.

Today was a happy day for my SSB Coupe. Took the time to debadge her, busted out the Nulens and cleaned up the headlights, and then sent her in for new tires and an alignment. I can't wait to have her back tomorrow, already miss being in the drivers seat.
