    Daylight Running Lights

    Yes, washing the car CAN get water into the socket. I have massive experience with that. :D Also, hitting a water puddle can also get water into the socket and blow the bulb. These issue will only happen if your lens has been melted and is allowing water inside the lens. After talking with...

    Replaced convertible top, now it's too tight and doesn't seal in the back

    Sounds like the installer should have taken a look at Paul's post on convertible tops.

    Video: C5 Corvette Z06 Hits a Tree

    There's a much longer version of this video that shows this idiot gunning the car in turns and causing it to fishtail all over the road. You can see him do it in a few turns in this video too and that last turn was the accumulation of his idiot behavior. I hope he owned that car.

    Help! twilight sensor off and headllights will not close

    No, the twilight sentinel has nothing to do with this problem. One of your headlight gears is bad and that is the ONLY reason this is happening. It is a tell-tell sign with the C5. If you have successfully replaced the headlight gear on one side of the car and there are no problems with the...

    Headlight motor rebuild

    Here's what I tell everyone who does this job. Never take both headlights apart at the same time. If you screw up one side, you will always have the other side to look at and see how it is supposed to be put together. :thumb
