Put the SS into hibernation. There's lots to do this winter. We got the charge piping and downpipe off. The downpipe just got sent off to ZZP for re-fab work. I'm also having them add an additional 02 for a wideband sensor. So here's the short list for the off season.

- Build custom cold air box (no more sewer pipe)
- Reinvent the PCV system which my upgrades have deleted
- Fix the Lower Charge to Intercooler Connection by modifying the LC
- More interior fixes\mods
- Paint + Powdercoat Rims
- HP Tuners is on my wishlist ASAP ( must have before spring)

That's all I can think of for now..looking at that supercharger kit for Grandma's HHR!

tried to do the fix for the blinker,on this site, by switching around the spring. wasnt working took it apart and saw that the cam was broken. oh well it cost me.

i ordered the AC part from amazon for $30. around me the parts places want $60. so i waited a few days.

installed it and put it all back together and now the blinkers & high beams, are working perfectly again!!

The HHR's look so much better with the 4 taillight conversion...that's what ours has too...I got a license plate frame with LED's for back up lights

Danged, but if that isn't as cool as all get out mississippisunburst, lookin' super sweet!

My HHR's stayed parked another day, but it's looking like my Sweetie will be released on Monday/Tuesday, so she has requested that Paddy(her favorite out of our herd too) be at the curb when they wheel her out.

This has been a long and scary week at times, but now I know my Darling Michelle will be OK, and soon we'll be home and together again as a family.

Our son Dusty has been at his Momma's side every day, he's one brave Little Man, and he's been taking care of me as much as I've been taking care of him.

Great news Oldblue!!

Installed the powerstop cross drilled/slotted rotor and brake pad kit today. I had severe brake fade and the rotors were warped on my 2011. Did the "break in" procedure a little earlier and the brakes work great! I did a few 100-0 stops with no fading and no shuttering under hard braking. I need to bleed the brakes tomorrow for more piece of mind.
