    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...

    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...

    Question: C4 Alarm Problem

    On occasion, the alarm will sound on my '85 after pressing the locking button on the inside of the door and then closing the door. As the problem occurs rather infrequently and the alarm can be turned off by unlocking the door with my key from the outside, it's more of a nuisance than a major...

    Question: C4 Backup Lamp Lens

    Having more time due to retirement, I'm gradually restoring/replacing various components on my 85 Coupe. Does anyone know if the lens on the backup lamps can be cleaned? The original lens are dark and sooty looking as if exhaust has accumulated on the inside surface of the lens. Dennis R.

    I'm in need of one black plastic cap for a locking lug nut on an '85 C-4. Thus far I've only been able to locate caps for the non-locking lug nuts.

    1985 New Tires

    It's time to replace the Goodyear GT+4 tires on my 1985 coupe. As it has been many years since I purchased the last tires, any recommendations would be much appreciated. I would like to soften the ride a bit and minimize noise on the highway. I'm using the original rims. Thanks for your help!
