Been away from the forum a lot,,starting early and working late getting their upstairs remodeled, but the end is in sight!!No matter how big they get,,they are still your kids,,and ya just gotta jump in and help!!

itzza427 check with your gm dealer and see if they can help you out on this. It maybe expensive going through a dealer but if they do it, you know it would be done right, at least you hope it would be. Another suggestion is pulling the fuse, but that may disable the driver's side air bag as well and set a code possibly. These are just suggestions.

Good idea,,we just picked up a new dealership sponsor for our club. They seem very eager to hold/participate in events and give discounts on cars,parts and labor to club members. I hadn't even thought about a dealer,,I'm an old DIY guy,and a dealer has been the last place I ever thought about. Think I will ask them about it,it"s a start!
