They told me they order standard 15 psi Stat radiator caps and simply press their top piece on to the Stat caps.
You may call and ask why yours is off 90 degrees. 517-548-0600

I got the control box for my new gauges. I am switching over from Dakota Digital's VHX to the new HDX series but they are not done yet. They gave me the box so I can go ahead and wire it in and then just plug in the new gauges when they are ready.

Well I have several projects going..
Mounted rear rotors, calipers and replaced the hose
Took the front calipers and rotors off, replaced the hose
Replaced heater core and fan motor
Cleaned out battery compartment
Glued rear window seal into place along the bottom where it was loose
Disconnected wiper door and headlight actuator vacuum lines ( working on engine soon and dont want leaks )
Replaced a burnt out front side marker light
Removed old fog light wiring and switch
Then I stared at the ten rivets in the rotors for awhile ****! Drilling tomorrow! %@#$@$
Last week I replaced the fuel tank,pump and carb.....still waiting on that special S hose ( pump to line on frame hose )
I plan on moving soon and have to get this thing running. Bought at the worst possible time but have no regrets.

2023 Restomod of the Year finalist
2020 C3 of the Year Winner - Modified
Running an E-stopp electric barking brake-BUT the guys at E-Stopp would not give me ANY information on how to "customize" it-
Told them I just wanted to "change" out the switch- but no luck.
The switch just looks out of place in my interior - also have a nice looking billet one- but still not my cup of tea.
So- I just cut the "void if removed" sticker and looked inside...cut up some wires and figured out what was needed to incorporate a Mercedes Benz S550 electric parking brake switch-
A couple of Bosch relays and I'm there,
Pull out- disengages the parking brake- push in the button and it engages-
Will look good mounted on the lower dash-
Opps- I guess it's out of warranty!!
Here's my rear storage compartment relay bank-
Started out as a craftsman socket holder!!!
3M Carbon fiber wrapped it- after sanding it down
Relays - fuses- fuel pump switch( to switch between primary and back-up ) PWM control for plate motor- and USB charger plug
The fuses light when blown- and three 'blown" ones to tell me the fuel pump is on(one or two) and if the roll over inertia switch is triggered. If the car won't run- in seconds I'll know if the pump is working
I'll label the box-as far as fuse size and what it controls-
