You'd have to track down 2 of the connectors on the mirror then, a male and female. I just used line taps, great and they don't destroy the OEM wire. If I ever decide to remove it I can just pull the taps off and put a piece of electrical tape over the insulation slice.

You'd have to hack up an onstar mirror to make a female connector, but I suppose that'd work.

that is a possibility...

but you would be surprised just how often GM re-uses connector ends...

my RPD wire was made from early 90's seatbelt connector, and and HVAC(?iirc) plugs...

OEM bulb, only reason I'd go led is for bulb life.

muffler delete? Joe and Alex have a way of doing that I'm happy catless, all honesty it's a little loud sometimes. Like 3am upshifting at 2k trying to be quiet and it decides to dump fuel into the exhaust runners

Ya, muffler delete. I'm catless too. It gets a little old driving across 1-90 every day listening to the thing. I'm leaving in another 2 or three days for a ride from here to Boston then to South Carolina. I don't want to develop a pounding headache half way. I'm just going to add a small resonator back there.

edit - and the other thing is being caltless, mufflerless and still having the cat warmup in my tune. OMG when I fired the car in the garage in the morning it wakes most of North Bend. HAHA. And you should have seen me sneaking around tonight. We got a billion cops in my neighborhood because of that whacko shooter and here I am trying to get by them catless and mufflerless......FML.

I vote you drop a nice 3 chamber back there, flows well and shouldn't be obnoxious. I'd like a full catback with the longest resonator that'll fit and a 3 chamber muffler, running stock right now.

I put on a small resonator. Still sounds good, but kills the drone on the highway. Really happy with it.

Went on a mini photoshoot with a co worker. He has the 4 door SS/NA lowered on Eibach's and a 149dB sound system. Me? The red SS/SC with just simple mods. Both cars were just buffed. But unfortunetely, all I had was my HTC phone. So sorry for shotty quality.

why apologize? If a cell phone is the best available then by all means use it. It's better than an old school Polaroid or whatever. I think it looks just fine.
