    I need a complete rear diff - anyone know where to source one?

    I have a spare as well. Would love to sell. Stock unit. 3.73 gears. Spider gears are worn but I believe the rest is in good shape. What's it worth? Don't need it. John

    Gen 3 Headlamp Experience

    Its my wife's, has the GM Tune on it and it is a fun little car. Around 290 HP or so. Geared right, she keeps up with me pretty nicely on the twisties. Its a quick fun little car that won't break the bank. John

    Gen 3 Headlamp Experience

    I own 13 cars. These types of issues and Insurance costs, and the absolute insanity of drivers these days has me re-thinking which cars to keep. Old cars like my GTO or Bonneville ? Lots of parts are made in China and elsewhere. They are cheap, do not always fit great and do not last. Just...

    Gen 3 Headlamp Experience

    Yes, people are asking silly prices for those replacements, because there are not much left. And like my Prowler Windshield, if it gets broken, the insurance companies HAVE to pay to replace. I will wait for the lenses. It is the same gentleman who is reproducing the Gen 1 and Gen 2 lenses...

    Gen 3 Headlamp Experience

    Bummer. Never noticed mine was cracked like this until they applied the steam and pulled off the PPF. And I clean my cars a lot. What do you think caused yours ? John

    Gen 3 Headlamp Experience

    No Idea - the PPF was only removed from the front facia. Not the headlamps. And not the hood, yet. There was no PPF on the headlamps.

    Gen 3 Headlamp Experience

    See attached. No damage on the bottom of the lens. So my thought is that area is possiblly a high stress area that cracked due to heat. But these cars get hot and thosnone was from TX so its seen heat. Also note the corner where the paint is damaged ( bad touch up) . Could this area have been...

    Gen 3 Headlamp Experience

    Would agree, but here is what is weird, its only that corner. The lamp bottom where it meets the front facia, is just fine. And they had to steam that off as well. The hood, which is the top body piece of that picture, still has the PPF on it. They did not steam that yet, only worked on the...

    Gen 3 Headlamp Experience

    I had a Gen 3 in the detail shop this past week. They removed the old PPF from the front bumper and I believe the Lens of the Headlamp. I now have headlamp lens's that are checked/cracked. I can not figure this out. I know that they were perfect before they went in. I'll find out today, but...

    That is so cool and local too! Nice work on that car. And Nice driving for sure. I find that the Viper is one I cant get into hard without frightening myself! I am not a racer. Just love the driving experience. John

    Gen III Door Panel Repair

    Bobby spent over 6 hours on my doors and windows. We will see what this all cost me. He says the windows go up and down properly now, they drop on opening etc. The door cups, he is not confident that he fixed the doors well enough to NOT break and said that the plastic is very very brittle...

    Gen III Door Panel Repair

    Yes, interesting. On my 2005 SSR, which has the same function where it drops when you open the doors, and goes up when you close, I leave the window down just a bit so it is not constantly working. I do the same so that each and every time I open the car I do not make the windows drop, and...

    Gen III Door Panel Repair

    Thank you - We will evaluate it and see what we can do. With all the cars I own, it is becoming clear that anything made in the 89's and on up you have to be gentle with the doors. From running the cheap speakers used, to cracking Door Panels to ruined Regulators, I am closing the doors on all...

    Gen III Door Panel Repair

    I am replacing the Window Regulators on my GEN III. In taking off the Door Panels, there are a number of areas where the "cup" that the Screws go into to secure the panel to the door has cracked and broken off. We are trying to figure out the best way to "glue" the areas back together etc. I...

    Gen 3 Passenger Side Window Regulator

    I am pleased with mine as well and I also bought the Doug Shelby Window Boss Kit on it. My Tech is timing the windows so that they go up when the door is closed. Now trying to decide on the window trim at the top that is all broken up. We are trying to figure out how to make sure that the...

    Stock Amplifier question on 06 SRT

    I am looking for new speakers that I DO NOT have to cut up the front doors. Do the Hertz Component speakers just Drop in ? Thank you, John

    Gen 3 Passenger Side Window Regulator

    Mine are on their way back from AZ. They turned them around in less than 4 days. I will let you know how the regulators work and operate. Now that Door situation and the Window trim at the top must be addressed. John
