I would like to suggest that we go back to the basic reason the BCA was founded. It was primarily to get together and have fun with our old Buicks. The early meets had people gathering in the parking lots and discussing their problems and all t

You may get lucky, many of these had a vacuum trunk release pump located in the glove box. If so, hope it is still functional.

If NAPA can't help out with new aftermarket, follow Ronnie's suggestion. Jim Finn would be the expect source for OE used lines.

Just curious Bob, your 1990 apparently is different than mine. Mine has two Horn Buttons & Assemblies, not one Horn Pad in the middle, that are accessed by removing the Air Bag by loosening the four screws on the back of the Steering Wheel. On mi

Hi Mark. The horn button should be the same as my 90, it's old plastic so use a dental pick and try to go in the side of the switch about 2" in to grab the switch itself then slowly wiggle it out. The switch is about $50.00 at the buick store,

What a coincidence....ALL of my lights work properly, EXCEPT the headlight and windshield wiper buttons don't light up as much as the rest (ie shifter, window, and mirror backlights). You can kind of see the lit words "low" "high"
