    1984 pass vanity mirror "bulb" replacement

    Paul, THX for your reply and offer. But I think you would do better selling your 94 visors as a pair. As all I need is the (1) button switch which engages / disengages the lights on both sides of the mirror - I am guessing it's .50 switch. Again Paul, thanks for the offer . . . :beer

    '85 dash instrument cluster question

    I have an 84', with 30K miles on it. Assuming the cluster on my 84 is the same as the 85, I was able to remove the circuit board and replace the original haligon lamps that apparently get way too hot and burn up the PCB, I replaced them with special Stanely non haligun bulbs and they are nice...

    1984 pass vanity mirror "bulb" replacement

    Feel kinda silly, and I do have the owners / maintanence manual and still can't find it. And I've searched the forums here, but nothing specific to the 1984. But I can't seem to figure out, how to replace the "bulb" in the passenger vanity mirror. In advance, all suggestions are greatly...

    1984 Vet A/C ?

    84 stock corvette - 160* thermostat

    Hey Jon, I previously read the PDF instructions, it said behind the oil dipstick (Passenger side), but when I looked at that side in the garage, I could not see it, so I looked on the driver side, it there was some type of an insulator plug in the block, so I thought I would ask you. I'll pull...

    Jon, on a 84 vet, is the temp switch on the head/block on the passeger side or on the drivers side?

    84 stock corvette - 160* thermostat

    JonM, I believe you are correct in your assessment: "The fans of an 84 come on at approximately 238 and shut off at about 201". Therefore your suggestion of the other switch to come on at 200 and off at 185. Now that makes sense. VERY good suggestion. But if I puchase the new "609-106"...

    84 stock corvette - 160* thermostat

    JonM. Thanks for your suggestion, I will check it out. I think my 84 vet came with a low and high fan switch, which both settings are still working. However I am not sure at what temp(s) are used to engage either the low or high radiator fan?

    84 stock corvette - 160* thermostat

    Hello, I have read several posts about putting in a 160* thermostat to reduce the temperature . .. . If you greatly reduce the engine temp, what happens to the heat of the engine oil, does not the engine oil need to get to 212* in order to burn off the internal moisture/water inside the...

    Antenna problem

    You can purchase just the mast for around $20 - -- but then you have to drill out 4 or 5 rivets, replace the mast, silcon, and bolt the case back together again where you drilled out the rivets. I did my 84 this way, it turned out great, kept the original antenna motor, as some of the new...

    Insurance Question

    Rich, Perhaps this will help, as I just checked into Haggerty and Grundy Insurance to insure a few classics: Grundy was cheaper, here are their rules: one car has to be insured by another insurance co, and that car has to be used for all your daily driving. Then you can insure your classic...
