Re: Speakers - Upgrades?
Tom, I'm sorry I didn't contact you in follow-up about coming down to Round Rock while my car was getting work done at Scott Williams' new "home shop". I can tell everyone this: if you want to improve the sound-- even with the stock speakers --the first thing to do is addition of sound att...

Re: Trailer hitch
Followup since last posting: Contact with Draw-Tite needed--spoke to them a few weeks ago, but need to call again. Met with Steve Eckart while in TX, and discussed--he is not looking to tow, only wants to mount a bike rack, and we're now looking at the idea of buying the G8 1.25" hitch kit from...

Re: 9C3 trunk release
Update - done, works great, remains to be determined whether a relay will be added I have a couple of harness and switch options - one harness is G8, the other is PPV, just so I could see what the interface is between the release button behind the compartment door BEFORE tearing things apart--the pa...

Re: Fuel door lock
Done, works great! Again, thanks to Scott Williams.... Bill, did you ever get this installed and/or figure out if the plug is on the harness? Eric There is no harness connector in the PPV for this function. The pigtail mentioned will be necessary if you want a connector--it could be hard-wired if de...

Re: Does Anyone Know What Kind of Radio Antennas We Have?
I'm not an expert on this, but from having removed the headliner over the weekend, and being able to see what is in the roof, Scott Williams & I did decide that the external antenna is providing the AM radio signal, and the wires embedded in the upper area of the rear window provide the FM radio...

Re: Holden WM maplight & harness
Done, looks good, works great. The lamp unit contains its own circuit board that permits the individual map "spot" lights to function properly, so there's no required programming over & above what the current PPV dome lamp control scheme interface to BCM is. New SS appears to use the s...

Scott Williams, (screen name HACK ), is a name some of you--current & past B-body owners--may be familiar with. Way back when, in the late 90's/early 2k's, Scott began making taillight upgrades and trunk kits for the 94-96 Impala SS & it's blood relatives. In 2000 he took his affiliation wit...

Re: Trailer hitch
I need to do a follow-up contact with the person I spoke with at Draw-Tite, to see if there has been any movement in their consideration of my request. I still wonder whether their G8 piece would possibly fit, even with minor tweaking. The floor pan in that area may or may not be same or similar (en...
