C5 cam ... light
So, its like 40 degrees today and I decide to take care of a couple of things in the garage. I was going to fire up the Vette, add some Stabilizer to the tank etc. Then as usual, I get side tracked. Heres my version of the C5 cam light. I thought the wife was going to be ticked off once she found out I used one of her old lamps. She said, "thats pretty cool" of couse it has to stay in the basement.
