WANTED to BUY: NOS CHROME 1987 Wheel Opening Moldings
RIGHT Rear - GM part #20495107 There is one on eBay. It's been on there for a few years. Probably hasn't sold because he's asking almost $150 for shipping.- wdxwrx

hood struts - suggestions on which to get?
I had NAPA struts on my car. I always felt like I was going to bend the hood when closing it. I bought new ones from Highway Stars. They work perfect. The parts they sell, and their customer service is always top notch.- wdxwrx

86/87 Regal Cigarette lighter
A nice knob is what you need. The element is the same from most GM lighters of the era. It just unscrews from the knob.- wdxwrx

GNX in halftime show
I don't like the look of anything modified on a TR. My GN is 100% bone stock (I just put a new set of Eagle GT tires on it). My Monte Carlo and T-Type have some driveline improvements. Other than that, they are 100% stock appearing. I've seen plenty of heavily modified TRs over the years, as we...- wdxwrx

Interesting find..
It's possible. A lot of techs were not good at diagnosing problems with these new high-tech cars in the late 80's and early 90's. Discovered a similar issue with a GN I bought in 1989. The car was burned. It was obvious that it was set on fire. I parted the car out. After I took the body off...- wdxwrx

GNX in halftime show
I was thinking the same thing. I have no interest in rap (hate it actually). That being said, he is into these cars, just like we are. Doesn't that make him one of us? If Bruce Springsteen had a TR, everyone would be all into it. The past few years I've attended the G-Body car show in Medina...- wdxwrx

Did I screw up the knock sensor?
Considering how important the knock sensor is, I'd get a new one. It's cheap insurance.- wdxwrx

1986 T-Top rear interior, light trim removal?
Exactly. Pry the blade toward the lens. It will release it from the bezel. The lens is slightly pliable, the bezel is not. Be careful, the lens may be a bit brittle from age.- wdxwrx

Use a small flat blade screwdriver and LIGHTLY pry between the bezel and the lens. The lens will pop right off. Just be gentle.- wdxwrx

80 turbo Carb overflowing?
I agree that it may be a float issue. However, a couple of years ago I bought a new (chinese) fuel pump for a SBC with a Q-Jet carb because the old one was leaking. When I started it up the carb was overflowing. I took the carb apart 3 times to fix the "float" problem. It still kept overflowing...- wdxwrx

Which Master for Vac Brakes? (Pic)
I believe any G-Body master will work. Other than the Power Master, the rest of the TR brake system is identical to the vacuum system.- wdxwrx
