bought this from Chris at Cheyka Motors, couldn't be more pleased. Arrived with two original window stickers.

I've got a set of Camaro rims and Kings springs ready to go after i register it monday. Also got an LS3 cam and valve springs waiting for a conversion when time and money allows.

Quick question, where is the least expensive place to buy a duplicate key/fob? Am I stuck going to the chevy dealer?

They are pretty cheap from GM. I’d just make nice with the parts department guys. Get one for under $50 all cut and programmed.

Question. Does your trunk mat say Holden on it?

Big reason I chose the car. paint code 102X is either PRUSSIAN STEEL METALLIC or MYSTIC GREEN depending on who you talk to.

Thanks.

Swapped in the front King Springs with new mounts last night. Reattached rear door interior handles. The rear door lock push rods were loose in the glove box but don't fit correctly. I thing the mechanic may have thrown the wrong ones in the box.

I tested the rear window switches and circuit and I'm under the impression they are turned off in the body control module computer.

Please elaborate. Does the safety lock position result in the rod interfering with the door grommet location?
