Is there anyway to use software and use my ELM 327 to read the keys when they are inserted and see what chip they have in them? I...

    Question about Fuel Pump and Sending Unit 2003 LS V8

    Does anyone know which motor I need for the fuel pump if I decide to use my existing housing? I know I have done it before on a Lexus and it was pretty easy to replace the motor of the fuel pump itself. Also does the sending unit use a similar motor and if so can you repair it vs replacing it? I...

    Does anyone know of any companies that rebuild the LS Instrument clusters? I have had random codes for things that connect to the cluster so I wanted to clear my mind and make sure it is not defective. I have also had issues with the way it will light up if raining and dark outside during the...

    Does anyone think this can work in the LS? Alpine INE-F904D Halo9 Navi Car Audio and Navigation System And yep that is a 9-inch screen! I know it's bigger than the space itself. However, the way it mounts is why I wonder if anyone thinks this can work. It's a single din unit, but has various...

    Gen 2 LS V8 Valve Covers Low Price

    I noticed the valve covers are about $105 each these days so obviously stock is being discontinued!
