New mods.

[tloftus]

Hey guys, nothing too exciting but if anyone wants a write-up I'll throw something together.

 

First of all it's a 89 Cutlass Supreme 3.1.

 

Mod 1. Dual Headlight Mod -- made it so when I have my brights on the regular lights stay on instead of switching between the two. Real bright - pretty cool.

 

Mod 2. Radio On Until Door Open -- I know that this is factory on some Buicks and Cadilacs, maybe even some of these W-Bodies, but the radio stays on after you shut the car off until you open a door. I'm still looking into hooking it into the power windows too so they can be rolled up after the car is turned off.

 

Also, got my DIS today, pretty wicked, now I just need the bezel so I can mount it, otherwise, awesome.

 

Will get some pics of my Cutty up soon.

Nice! I think all new GM's have that feature, BTW. What vehicle did you score the module from and how exactly did you hook it up? Sounds like one of those "add-ons" that you can't live without !!!

That's awsome, I love cars that do that.

I'd love a detailed write-up of that mod.

I'll see if I can get both written up this weekend. Does anyone update the main w-body page anymore? I think if someone does something like this it should be on the main page for everyone. Anyway, both mods just use relays it's no big deal really, I'll get a write up done this weekend.

p.s. If whoever runs this site reads this, I'd like to help "revive" the main w-body page with some new info!

that sounds like some cool mods. Way to be creative.

I've tried asking that before in regards to my turn signal switch replacement "procedure" to no avail. I just posted the document to my webpage and linked to it in my signature.

 

BTW, I'm looking forward to your write-ups!

I'm looking forward to your write-ups too. Both sound like cool, useful mods.

Those are some really interesting and nifty modifications!! Most definately get a write up on how you did this!
