    C-6 Exhaust Upgrade

    I'm looking for feedback regarding a potential exhaust upgrade on a 2005 base model C-6 that I purchased in May with 21,000 miles on it. How practical is it to replace the standard exhaust with a remote controlled two-tone system? It's my understanding the complete exhaust system may need to...

    Question: C-6 CD Player

    I recently purchased a C-6 coupe that was built on April 27, 2005, and have a question. The factory build order indicates it has the "1SB - Preferred Equipment Group" including a 6-disc CD player. It has a tilt screen door for inserting the CD and the navigation DVD. However, I've only been...

    Upon removing the door panel, I discovered the plastic gear strip had broken. Replaced the strip and the window is working fine now.

    1985 Window Problem

    The passenger side window on my 1985 will raise about only 1/3 of the way. I was able to grab the glass and slide it to the raised position, but when released it slides back to the 1/3 raised position. I am able to lower it with the switch but raise it about only 1/3 of the way. Any repair...

    Thinking about Leaving the Vette World

    Turned 75 last month and still enjoy driving my '85 C-4 with 120k miles on it. I intentionally limit the extent of maintenance that I do [impaired vision in right eye], but just replaced the door panel on the passenger side. Always amazes me the number of people who stop to comment on the...

    1985 Corvette Hood Won’t Pop Up

    Hi Gerry - Although I've replacaed the hood struts as well as the coil springs on the latching pins, I've also not been able to achieve the hood "pop" when pulling the latch handle. However, the new struts have made a significant difference with lifting the hood! Hope your message generates...

    Question: C4 Alarm Problem

    The switches mounted in the door jamb for both doors are secure and do not appear to be a problem. Thanks for the tip regardless!

    Hood operation

    Just received the replacement hood springs, but not sure how to go about replacing the original springs. Do I need to remove the complete assembly on each side of the hood? i.e. The triangular plate attached to the hood, or remove just the pin and spring? If just the pin and spring, how is...
