    Taillight sockets

    nope, That will not work. The cougar takes special sockets as well as the connectors that go to the back of them. As far as I know these are not reproduced. You should be able to find yourself a used set. -Dave

    Front Suspension Squeaking

    A problem that I found on my car was that the area where the lower control arm mounts was rubbing the control arm due to bottoming out. This is a pretty easy fix, just bend it out. Kind of strange, I've never seen anyone else complain about this. But It's worth a check. -Dave

    Front Suspension

    Well, You can just say that it is very forgiving and also very capable. BMW has used this on all three Chassis 3Series since the 320 in '82. This includes the the M3's which I drive quite a bit in all different forms. Very nice, with the only problem being Balljoints, which frequently wear out...

    Front Suspension

    As a BMW parts guy, I've got to say they copied the front suspension of the 3 Series in every way that counts. I think it should handle rather well since BMW has been successfully using this layout since '82 all the way up to the current 3 series. Just my opinion. -Dave

    Por15 Tip

    Yeah, that's true it does work. But by the time it comes off with that I'm pretty sure you lose a little bit of skin too and it was fairly painful for me. Maybe you didn't prep your skin for proper adhesion.. -Dave

    Por15 Tip

    Hi Everyone. Anyone who has used Por15 knows that it does not come off of your skin until that skin comes off. Well, I found a little bit easier and quicker way... Get some disposible razors and shave it off. Now, if you get some on an area with a lot of hair you have to make a choice...

    Mustang Depot??

    Not bad, They are located here in town but still had to order almost everything that I got from them. But I paid for some stuff and left it there for almost a year and they still gave it to me, that's a bonus. -Dave
