  1. ive decided to replace my ragged rear speakers with 6x9s using 1990 panels.im assuming the new speakers have to be flat at the front.also do i hook them only to the larger speaker wiring or tie the wiring together from both speakers?
  2. i will be pretty happy if my car reaches 285000 miles.btw maybe chryslers are better cars than i thought.
  3. my car needs paint and minor body work plus minor interior repair.its valued at around a thousand dollars.all origional.but someone gave 19 times that for that convertible?btw i do love convertibles.
  4. will the bumper stop in the right place or do i need to constant check progress?

  7. yes.i grabbed a trans cooler off a 92?riv for my car.
  8. my power steering cooler has sprung a big leak.afaik theres no reattas or right year rivs in the junkyards near here.anyone know what other cars have the same part?

  12. i got it changed.what a pain in the butt.i bought the special tool off amazon.there wouldn't be any way to do it otherwise.there is a video on youtube about changing one on a 1990 lesabre that was very helpful.
  13. im thinking of making mine my daily driver if i can get it straightened out.my pontiac got totaled by someone not watching where she was going.the pontiac was an 07 and only had 10000 less miles.
  14. i could have made this more clear.i need to change the lock cylinder.
  15. my ignition key no longer works so i ordered a new switch from rockauto.the repair manual says i will have to remove the steering wheel.is this true?
  16. its a riv headlight switch.i have the same switch.
  17. yes but what part?if i buy a 100 dollar icm and it runs the same ill be pissed.
  18. still not perfect but much better.
  19. nothing wrong with a 1989 buick engine.if you are happy with the power,buy the century.make sure the century is a 3.8.wikapedia says the century is a 3.3.
  20. its running MUCH better now.two problems.bad fuel pump relay and when i went with the coil pack from the 94 bonneville i checked the output side of the coils and replaced one.since it still ran bad i bought another coil pack from a late nineties car.it ran better but not good.then i checked the input side of the coils from the first coil pack and found another bad coil.today i combined the three good coils from the second coil pack and the module from the first coil pack and instant improvement,it runs smooth and the mpg jumped from eleven to seventeen.i only went about five miles.i will drive it more tomorrow.
