If I've done this right, there will be a photo I took of the tail light cover I'm looking for here ...

Thanks 6-Shooter, these are what I have on there now. What I was looking for was a set with only the center bar.

C5 Tail Light Cover Hi All, I have tail light covers on my C5 that need to be replaced. I currently have the style with a chrome ring and three thin bars across the light with the center one having the C5 logo in it. I've seen a similar style but with only the ceter bar and C5 logo but I can't...

Has anyone checked out the Carmotorsports.com site for their embroidered under hood insulators? Car Motorsports - Corvette C5 Underhood Insulators I like them because you can get anniversary year logos, commorative logos , etc. but I must admit, I haven't seen one. I have an '04 CE and was...

How about considering switching to ceramic brake pads. I did and brake dusting is nearly all gone.

Hi All and happy new yaer! I've run across a winter weather problem that I recognize most folks will never see. My C5 is a daily driver and lives outside. Recently I've run across a series of cold wet days and have found both my doors frozen closed and my windows frozen closed. I believe the...

Hi All, I was wondering what everyone does when, despite all of your best efforts, you get a minor scratch in your paint - it's a daily driver, it happens. Now, I'm not talking about a key scrape just a minor scratch that the swirl removers and clay bars won't take care of. I've done some wood...

Hi Remo, I admit it certainly looks good. However, isn't that the air dam sitting on the road - how do you drive it like that? Tony C.

Interesting thought. I do mostly lock the doors using the button on the driver's door. I'll have to try locking them with the fob for a while to see if it behaves differently. By the way, where is the relay located? Thanks! Tony C.

Hi All, I'm having an occasional problem with the remote unlock on the fob. I searched the old threads and none were quite like this. The fob generally works fine. The doors lock, unlock, hatch unlocks and seats auto adjust. The issue I have periodically is that when I press the remote unlock it...

Hi Mark - I understand how busy life can get. We just attended our daughter's grad school graduation, her wedding is in July and we just found out my sona and daughter-in-law are pregnant. wow, what a spring! So, a couple weeks ago when I finally had to replace my tires - 32K miles on the...

I've seen a similar arrangement with the hitch. My uncle races his Vette all the time. He drives it to the races but hauls a specially built trailer with his race wheels in it. I asked him about it and he said he has no problems with it at all.

Hi All, I've wondered about how folks drive the lowered Vettes too. I think the look is very cool but I drive mine every day and have to choose my route to work based on the condition of the streets. It's a good thing the air dam is hinged. I've been considering larger wheels to get the full...

Hi All, I had cupping on my front tires as well but they've been on for 32K miles. I'm replacing my original tires today with BFG g-Force super sport a/s tires (non-run flats). I got great mileage on the first set of OEM's but can't stand the noise, etc. Now, to your comment, I had someone...

Looks like some one is having too much fun with Photoshop! Can you tell us how you did that?;shrug
