I've traced both clusters and have made up two diagrams of the plug wiring. The first shows the original 1969 Full size Pontiac standard instrument cluster configuration, with the Rally cluster to the right. The Rallys wiring is likely unique to the USA car, athough it is possible Canadian Cars w...

Anyone here tackle a headliner diy? I'm going to do it with the help of my wife this year. Question for those in the know: What kind of air powered staple gun and staples will I need to secure the headliner to the tacking strips? I think I'm lucky with the 65 post, as the liner will only need glue at the rear wi...

While searching, I came across a near perfect 65 dashpad at a super price. Problem is it has a dimple in the right upper edge, from something laying on it for a long time. Last summer I had it out in the sun for some time, and it seemed to relieve a tiny bit, but no further. While not too bad, it obviously stand...

I'd like to pull my 65 seat tracks apart for a light cleanup and paint. ? I'm assuming that drilling out what appears to be a stop rivet (yellow circle) will allow the top slide off the base? My worry is there some kind of spring or mechanism that will go flying. Has Anyone done this?

Guys, What style of belts would have come in a 65 Laurentian? Could you get a deluxe metal buckle with the GM logo? The picture below is what was in my 65, is this the stock low line buckle belt for 65? Pretty sad looking. Was black webbing, now hard and faded. One roll retractor missing. The surviving roll...

soooo....how does the well liner attach to the top of the rear seat panel? Obviously screws in but do the screws go through the velcro (for attaching the parade boot to)? Thanks.

has anyone fitted lap sash seatbelts to a 65-70 parisienne convertible? Here did you put the top anchor point front and back? Any later models which might be similar and had lap sash belts fitted? The misso will want them fitted rather than just lap. Cheersll

I installed a sequential turn signal timer in my 2+2, but the flash rate is too fast to make it real noticeable. The rate is solely controlled by the flasher relay. Does anyone know if the adjustable relays for motorcycles would work? They are 2 prong and look like they would work, but it doesn't specify...

I got this clock from a fellow CP member. He got it thinking it fit his 66 Grande. But not. It definitely doesnt fit my 68 either. It works fine. Once we figure what it fits Ill sell and donate it to the site. Heres a few pictures. PS. If its not from a Pontiac I guess I posted in the wrong place. -- Edited by JC...

Hi For my 67 2+2 the headrests drop as you drive over bumps. I need 3 clips as only 1 is good. The way these worked is that you pull the headrest almost all the way up, then push down gently until the unit locks. There are 4 locking positions. 2 of my clips are missing, 1 is broken and only 1 is good. I've browse...

I've been looking at different gauges. I need to have an oil pressure gauge and a temp gauge in my 66. I really don't want to drill any holes to mount a set of retro gauges like we all did in the 70's in one of those dual or triple chrome gauge panels. I have a blank pod where the clock would normally be but my Str...

Ever take something apart and not take note of the obvious thing you will need to know when you put it back together? Well, I did. So, I finally decided to get a matching keyed trunk lid and glovebox lock. I got the old lock cylinder out of the glovebox lock housing. Comes out easy...too easy. It slipped ri...
