Replaced the power mirror switch this morning. Installed the phone holder. Next will be an FM radio AUX cord adapter thing so I can listen to music other than the 2 cassette tapes and couple CDs I still own.

I ran no front plate in IL for 3.5 years because the Volt didn't have a mount. Never had an issue. Its an add on ticket so just don't get pulled over.

I didn’t run a plate for a long time on the camaro either but Schaumburg stared to pull me over for it and issue warnings. Luckily since this will stay titled in FL where they don’t have front plates it won’t be an issue.

Omg nice car. That looks like an ultimate edition, they are fully equipped they even have RAS rear air suspension. I have one 03 fully loaded too of which is now my project car, drove it for years.
You can actually put 2005-2014 mustang wheels all plug and play no adaptors needed. I swapped a 32v engine on mine and added a few other stuff, sadly is getting rusty lol. Enjoy the car, and as for the radio I got an android head unit with a lot of stuff, looks nice and does a lot.
Nice car

Thank you! Yup it is an ultimate edition. It no longer has the air suspension though. It was converted to standard springs because it kept having problems with it just sitting outside in the Florida weather for months at a time. It’s been great thus far.

Yup.. so looking into another set of wheels for the car the past week. Mostly looking to Get some snow tires for the stock wheels or whatever I can find. Well I walk outside to head to the bank and look at some wheels for sale locally I notice the tire was low. As soon as I touch the valve to unscrew the cap the entire center of the valve flies off and the tire goes flat..

so I put the spare on and a shop has the wheel now to put a new valve in. I have a feeling my grandpas use of metal caps cranked onto the stem with a ratchet to keep, “those darn kids from stealing them” did this in.

Kind of bummed too because the wheels I was looking at just sold. Would have been good too as he was using them on a crown Vic and had new tires on them. Ohh well.
