Id like to replace the amber w/ clear bulbs, anybody got a clear bulb #??

OK so I have a 05 Mag Red Z51 6 speed. It has just turned 20k miles. Am thinking about moving up to Z06, but aside from the battery going dead I really love this car. If i keep it, Id like to do a few mods- I was told by a local LS motor tuner around here that I could get 25 HP with a...

In 06 they gave you the perscription for a year- I listened to the comedy channels when I drove around, and then noticed it was the same loops being replayed. The little I used the car didnt justify the cost and I let it expire. I got solicitations seemed like every week thereafter to re up-...

I paid 500 per tire for the SC's A week after i purchased the rears ( fronts were not avaliable) the weather turned so the car has been sleeping.... Until today when i took it out and got the thrill back.. for a little bit Was looking forward to a run down to Atlantic city tomorrow but as the...

Owned Mag red here w/ dead battery

Agree, leaf blower, and then if any streaks keep that microfiber handy dampened with some spray shine and you can hit it at the gas station...

First i use the california blade, then leaf blower in all nooks and crannies and on tires and rims. With a blower the water "spiders" out a bit and i leave that cause it dampens the microfiber i use with the dpray detailer and leave a "spit" shine.

I do the tires and wheels first, but with a different bucket than the rest of the car-- Depending on how much time i have, during summer before shows i take tires off car and clean the inside of the rim as well as the outside- I use a stiff brush on the tire to remove old dressing and then i...

Man i would not use gas on a vettes paint. I used it on my Duramax's paint cause im a roofing contractor, and tar got everyehere, but unless use you use a tiny drop and get it off completley right now it leaves a trace, and ruins the paint. They used to sell this stuff called Lestoil, ("its so...

I have to admit, my selection of wax takes a bit more scientific approach. I have found thru years of research and analyis, the the bottle with some stuff left in it is the only way to get the best results.

Have noticed that myself and Im dammed ****ed. Today I will tackle that after much contemplation of how to remove without doing damage. Im thinking a plastic bondo applicator to slightly spread seam, then blowing out with compressed air.

I have found the the original factory finish on all interior panels can only be maintained by wiping the dash and plastic surfaces with a microfiber towel rinsed in spring water and wrung out almost dry. I mist a very tiny amount of some kind of interior vynal (never could spell vynal) cleaner...

Is yours a Z 51? Cause im approaching 17,000 with my Goodyear Supercar Tires, so soon enough ill be in the market for a new set of sneakers. Would like to hear from all you Z51 owners who have bought new tires and your opinion of them.

Reading that other thread about steep discounts got me to thinking about trading up to a Z06. Only because I think my car is at that sweet spot where it is 2 years old with fairly low milage on it (about 15k) not a scratch on her and in perfect shape. However, if prices are discounted so...

Silverman, dude, any way you can post some audio of how your car sounds?
