Still havent installed it yet either... I look at the box on the shelf nearly every morning with all the progress and parts every day. I nearly had it completed up to the point I decided to make all the wires match the FSM colors, but I suppose I could just label them and chart the colors out on a spreadsheet for reference. My future self is always more logical than the other guy.

This thread is 15 years old.

And I still haven`t installed mine after all these years when all the parts and data were right there with the custom adapter 3/4-7/8 completed. I understand why peasants were flogged back in the day...

Hi, I’ve just stumbled onto this forum, and i figure I’ll probably need to post here eventually acquired my luminator last year, 2nd owner from a grandma. 70000 (got w 55000)miles. Here’s some pics; thx yall

That 12volt writeup makes the Viper route look pretty straightforward, especially compared with piecing together random Passkey modules. Compustar is solid too, but clean install docs are half the battle.

Was a great summer, the A/C performed as it should. Successful repairs is always a good thing, it's why we keep on driving these cars, or at least one reason, anyway.

UPDATE - no oil coming from the oil pump shaft, it's a wonderful thing. No coolant leaks. Coupled with the A/C being fixed, and this made for a great summer with this car. I still have a very small oil leak, within reason, nothing to worry over.

That item is no longer produced, finding a *new* replacement will be on the awkward side. They can be serviced, it's just a mechanical oil filled/spring loaded tensioner.

Agreed. When it comes to 1st gen sedans, I think the Cutlass was the best looking one of the bunch. The 1st gens were ultimately designed as coupes, and that’s how they look their best. The Regal definitely is my favourite one of the bunch, with the cutlass coming in at a close 2nd.

Welcome. That car looks amazing! Definitely somewhat of a rare car, even when new. Seems like the Regal coupes were fairly out of style by that time. Having those wheels makes it even rarer. Can’t say that I’ve ever seen a 95-96 coupe in person, but I still see the odd sedan out and about. Definitely have not seen any Regal in person with those wheels on it either.

Thanks for this.

It's been a while since I've seen one of these out in traffic. These cars were mostly rotted out during the last recession in 2008. I was just thinking if I saw one today it would stand out a lot because of all the crossovers people drive now. Especially a clean one. Most people probably wouldn't know what it was. Welcome to the forum.
