Well I completed the first mod to my ride last night.
Not much of a mod compared to a lot of the stuff I have seen being done through this forum.
I ordered and installed the steering wheel audio controls. Thanks to the expert advise offered on another thread it was a snap to do. For less than $50 it is worth it.
Now all I need to do is get my wife to let me do all of the other things I want to do to the HHR.

 

I know the feeling!

So much to be done, so little permission to do it.

 

How and where did you get the controls? Is it easy to install???

When you get that mod, LET ME KNOW! Lady Fenrir is just a little more practical than I am, but still....

 

Thanks CH for posting the thread.

It was an easy mod, I would say it took about 10 minutes to do. Deb put some very good instruction within that thread, made it so simple even I could install the controls.

Took about 10 days for the parts to arrive from gmpartsdirect.com.

 

Glad to be of service. Took me longer than that...but hey, it resulted in a step by step how to for those of us who are not at mechanically inclined as others here on the forum. That's a great mod, isn't it? I just love the new controls...just takes a bit to get used to having them there. Still find myself using the regular radio controls occasionally.

 

When my paycheck allows me to do other things to my car. That's when I will do more mod's. Thats after all of my bills are paid and money is left over.

 

My problem is most of the time there is no money left over.

 

I don't ask ... I do...
