  • Wife's out of town, so I decided to...

    ...work on the Firebird!!!

    I replaced the foglights and parking lights. The old ones were really gross looking. Plus, I replaced the lower tone horn (to fix the problem created by INCOMPETENT LOU BACHRODT CHEVROLET OF CORAL SPRINGS, FL when they incorrectly installed the wrong, higher pitch horn).

    One beer and a lot of dirt and grease later, I've got new foglights, new parking lights and my dual horns finally sound good again.

    :banana: :banana:

    By the way, I should mention LOU BACHoRDT CHEVROLET IS INCOMPETENT. The passenger side lights access panel is missing one of its bolts. Only INCOMPETENT LOS BACHRODT CHEVROLET has ever worked on that area, so they had to be the ones who did not properly replace the both bolts.
    I solemnly swear I am up to no good.

        Foglights were $39.69 each and parking lights/ DRLs were $27.30 each from GMpartsdirect.com. The foglights included the bulbs.

          The DRLs/ parking lights were harder to replace because they have these annoying little stamped metal nuts that screw onto the plastic posts of the DRLs.

                What are you replacing them with? factory? I would love to find some cheap black halos or just some new factory headlights.

                  To BLLDOGG: Why don't you quit being lazy and just polish those suckers up? :p
