i have posted before on this matter and wonder if anyone has any new suggestions. i have an 84 corvette, i can not get the headlights totally adjusted so there are flat and perfect and i dont really care for the pop up. Right now i have them on the flip up and leaving at that. i have seen the breathless company but can not find anyone else that has a non pop up solution? Help? I have used the suggestion on how to adjust and it does not work right on the one side, they just will not line up...any help would be great.

Well..Happy holidays, have not been on in about a month, put away in the garage for winter...
anyway, i am still coping with the headlights, i can not get them perfect allign, i am ready to spend the 900 for the non flip headlights i found on internet, anyone got any thought before i spend that money... just want them to look clean and straight.

Tires are good, just the typical road noise, i will follow site... thanks

ihave the 84 factory rims that are showing their age, can they be painted black? Silver? do i need to rough them up first? Never done ...advise would be great.

everything i read tells me that nothing can be done with the 84 ecm only 85 and up? is that true? can it be modified, can i buy cable to hook to laptop and use software for tunning on the 84?

Please help...

as i continue to bring my 84 back to life, i had the tires balanced high speed today and have put the doors for the most part back together. can anyone give me some suggestions for silencing road noise like cane i put anything in doors etc.

I bought on ebay an 84 window motor and assembley and it is for the driver door not the passenger side. Is it possible to remove the motor and put on an old assembly? It does not appear to have the screws. They are both AC delco OEM. How do you, and can you remove?

called sonic blue, due to the base tones even though stripped it still brought out some red which mix and made more purplish, sonic blue is a mix of purple and blue.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the input... can someone direct me on the upgraded ecm that i should get that will work with my 84?

can anyone point me to where i can get a cable for the diagnostic port for an 84 corvette and then hook it to a computer via usb. i see some past posts but the people i have emailed say that they do not make for 84 different ecm.
I want to do some fine tuning myself, please help!!

yeah...and good luck with USC!! Michigan rules

in my efforts to finish the 84 that i am putting back together, i need to replace the driverside out door handle. i have the used one i bought from ebay and now i want to take the lock cylinder and move it to this one, i puled and twisted a few times and nothing seemed to move, anyone know how to take the lock assembley off?

does anyone make any aftermarket fixed headlight to replace the flip up motor style for an 84?

As i drive my 84 that i am restoring i get a lot of noise sqweaking from the rear window hatch sounds like rubbing. I took of the plastic trim and re tighten it all is in place, is this a known problem?

Any suggestions to adjust and fix?

What are the tires from other c5 c6 etc will fit on on an 84, i see adds on craigs list and afraid to buy unless they will fit. i have the original rims and 16in tires now, what are my options?

Thank you, i thought so it must connect to board and i will take it apart again!!!

Thanks this site is great, i look forward when i can share info rather than ask questions all the time!!!
