If the weather is good next weekend. I might try to do the rear during the week since its pretty straight forward, and the front on the weekend. Give me time to dial in the rear height, then just concentrate on the front.

no problem. that should hold up a lot better than the paint that was on it.

yeah rears are easy. the fronts take a little bit of time to dial in.

Installed my Forge BPV today, so far it works and sounds great.

Next week I'm putting in my 4.45 trans and Southbend Stage 4+ clutch and saying goodbye to the KY Stage 3.

What sucks is you can't really do **** about it. You have to have insurance so they don't care how bad their service is. That's been my experience anyway.

Good luck, Eddie.

Anyway, I took out the stupid, non-functioning DVD player the previous owner installed in my Cobalt SS. The **** never worked. After nearly 5 years of ownership, I finally got fed up and decided to remove it.
Now there's a big hole in the ******* headliner. lol
I looked up replacement headliners, but I can't find anything affordable right now. I did find one being sold on gmpartsonline.net, but they wanted somewhere around $467 for it.

Edit: Here's the page

Give me a few minutes. I'll take a pic and post it.

Just a warning in advance: It's really bad. I almost regret taking off the DVD player.

Here it is.

Yup.
I almost regret removing the DVD player, but if you were in my car, you'd know why it was so frustrating having it there. The screen would always come down and block my rear view worse than my wing already does. Just continuously popping down. I'd push it back up only for it to pop back down.
