the G85 package gives the Cobalt a limited slip diff. so you definatly need that.

You didn't check to know what all you were paying for?

It is actually called the "Performance Package" on the window sticker which includes a limited slip differential, and used to have Recaro Seats, which they don't put in anymore!

Stupid question guys. i opted out of the G85 because i didnt know exactly what it was for. i obviously made a mistake. How much would it be to get aftermarket? can i even do that? thanks guys

Alot of money. The LSD alone is 1500, plus labor. Don't bother.

It's only useful in the cornering anyway.

This may sound really stupid, but I gotto ask, how can you tell if you get G85 or not? Is there a simple just by looking?
