Better late? I know this is an old post, but RPO 54T is the Shale colored convertible top. :w

Thanks. This kept me up all night reading through the service manual. I agree, the blue wire stays. I think my trouble is in the harness or instructions. I will look at the harness wiring at the lamp sockets for problems and rethink the wiring splices. I think I'm making this harder than it...

Mid America failed to put both pages of instructions in my kit. I finally found page 2 of the instructions on the web, which confirmed I completed the wiring correctly, but I've still got trouble. Mid America's kit tells me to cut the white wire on the brake switch, which I have. The...

The easiest access is through a taillight hole. You can also remove the entire license assembly by removing (4) T-15 torx screws under your license plate.

Forged 2000 high polished wheels. One of the 17" fronts has rim rash. The other 3 are in very good shape. Caps included. No lugs, no sensors. (2) 18's & (2) 17's - $500, you pay shipping from 98023 or pick them up in Seattle. Boxed, ready to go.

Are you talking about the A4's Torque Management Sysytem?

You bet. There's a Service Bulletin all about it. http://www.corvetteactioncenter.com/kb/question.php?qstId=277 Ken Robb also wrote a nice article on how to fix it yourself. When I find it, I'll forward the link.

There's a group purchase forming on the CorvetteForum for McCord electric cutouts. You can open these up with a switch inside the cockpit. Open them up partially or wide open. Quiet when you want it and rowdy at the flip of a switch. Make that Rustang leave a fluid spot beneath it at the...

The C5 is a great machine. You made a great decision, I'm sure you studied the choices. Just get it out and enjoy it. Life should be played forward, not in reverse.

All 2003 models have this badge on the nose and tail. It was on all colors. The fender badge is uniqie to the Anniversary Edition, which was Anniversary Red. Check it out at www.50thregistry.com .

All of the 2003 models had the same silver nose and tail badges. These had "50th Anniversay" lettered in the half moon at the top of the badge. The 50th Anniversary Edition was Anniversary Red and had additional 50th badges on the fenders, as shown below.

I'd think there was still room in that price of $49k. Many dealers are selling new 04's for hi 30's and low to mid 40's. Not all dealerships can operate on this level, but many 04's were deeply discounted. This sell-off brought down the resale price of all C5's imo. This model year depreciation...

I gotta agree w/Tuna! Good choice of cars!!! People come up to me and say "That is my dream car!" I say back to them, "Its my dream car too." I hope you'll visit us on the 50th Registry. You'd be in good company

G90 and G92 are both codes for the 3.15:1 performance axle. One is what is called a merchandised option code and/or build sheet, where the other is the option code used on your data plate. My build sheet shows a G90 code for the perf axle. The Corvette Blackbook shows the option as G92, so I...

No clue. DTC codes usually have a format of one letter, followed by 4 numbers, like "U1234". When you find out what it is, please let us know.

I've seen a few custom paint schemes on C5's. One of the best is "Agent Orange" - actually a 2002 Lambrogini color that was used on one of ther ricers in the movie Gone in 60 Seconds. Angelina Jolie has a pink Vette, I don't know the year, but here's a good story about Angelina and her Vette -...

I remember reading a post about a pre-production 2003 F55 Corvette given to the media for evaluation. Several writers had already driven the car with them still in place. I doubt those reviews were positive about the F55 ride quality. The writer evaluating the car was talking to a customer who...

Ok, there's a beast under that button on the console. I know competition mode turns off the traction control, while keeping the active handling. But, what else does this mode change? Is it my imagination, or does it release more hp & torque? Fuel system/computer changes? Suspension changes...

The warranty is a necessary evil. With all the computers and new tech, it just costs too much to repair. Even a few minor issues make the warranty a good gamble. Remember, Warranty prices are negotiable. Any GM dealer can sell you a GM warranty on your car. Ken Fitchner Chevy sells them as...
