Here's a tip.On the early C4s where the seat has the cushion and the plastic back is exposed (84-92) I think.The bottom cushion is held in with a clip in the front bottom, and the back has 2 maybe 3 clips that hold it in.Why is this important you may ask?Well I have a perfect passengerside seat and the driverside is starting to show some side bolster wear.So you swap chushions and the worn spot is now on the inside of the passenger seat.If you do this early enough and treat your seats with some leather conditioner,they both will look brand new again.It's a great way to get more miles out of your leather. :chevy

C4s have turning lamps, then you turn on the blinker, the side lamp illuminated thety way you're going, watch when you turn at night. :cool:

And yes that's true about the PKE and shaking the car, if you lock the keys inside, shaking it will work if the PKE is turned on.

There is a little trick with fixing your sport seat lumbar motor with a piece of latex off a rubber glove but I don't exactly know it :cheers:

I bought mine used - the original owner must of taken the chick magnet out and kept it or something. :lol:
For those of you that this might have happened to, take heart. Rumor has it that when the chick magnet is removed from the original Vette it was installed in it does a 180 degree phase shift and attracts.....well, it attracts....um, well... the other sex. :lol:

I have no idea if this is true, but I certainly hope so. :lolg: :lolg: :lolg:

Al. :cheers: :seeya

I wouldn't trust that to work. Ask GlockLT4. We had to break into his car because the shaking trick DIDN'T work. :rolleyes:
