[/quote]Sorry to burst your bubble but you gave up te voltmeter when you got a boost gauge. My horn works, and dimmer flash?[/quote]

Boost gauge for an amp meter ... good trade.. Pontiac should have done both
My Horn works also. Just in a bad spot and is to hard to find when you need it
"Dimmer Flash" on most cars when you pull the turn signal lever the lights flash.

ken

-Clunks when shifting to 2nd gear sometimes
-Needs a new rear bumper after getting rear ended for the 2nd time
-Slow power steering fluid leak
-2 of 3 power points mounts are broken

a little update

yesterday my dad and i put on a new water pump, timing chain, power steering seal, oil pressure sender unit, and drivers side ball joint.

also took the wheels off the 96 SE we have at home for a temporary setup til we throw new tires on my ghettos. looks pretty sharp with 5 spokes!

Last night my sunvisor fell out of the ceiling while i was on the interstate.

Haahaa...I know all about this. I don't think it'* so much that the horn doesn't work...it'* just hard to find. I never use it because for some reason it'* not where I think it obviously should be. I dunno, maybe it'* just me.

Lots of little things:
The plastic clip for the power mirror adjuster is broke.
Clips for driver side front speaker cover are broke.
Passenger side reflector in the door is missing.
Sunlight sensor fell down behind the dash.
Not to mention all the scratches, scrapes and what not in the paint.

Not Working:
bright headlight switch

Missing:
Foglights

Broken:
Radiator bracket
AC Condensor
All 4 headlights
Headlight bracket
rear muffler bracket
rear bumber (6" crack)
Front bumper (bottom supports are broken off)
