Thank you, I really appreciate that! :) Good luck with your fix!

Haha, that’s a high honor Ed, I appreciate it!

Where did you buy your lights..

Thanks Eric, I really appreciate it and glad you liked the video! 😁

Sorry I forgot the link to the video. gmauthority.com/blog/2020/04/pontiac-fiero-gets-turbo-ls3-swap-video/

Brian Barke oh man, yes I would absolutely love to have that setup in mine! 🤤 I can only imagine how much that’s going to cost all in, but he’ll definitely have something special - I’m going to have to follow that series now and see how it works out for them! And thanks Brian, I hope you’re doing alright too, praying we’re almost done with this virus (for now at least).

Whaaaa?! I didn’t realize the column could drop down like that, if I ever have to get back in there, I’m definitely trying your trick!

Yep! They are the same nuts you loosen when we do the inevitable steering wheel sensor that go bad :)

@@1Brain4Wheels If you would have google "C5 corvette cluster removal" You would have known this, probably would have been good idea before making video called "The Easy Way"

DuBstep115 hey, I said “easy way”, not “easiest way”... 😉 either way isn’t a bad way to go about it to be honest, I’m surprised at how simple this was.

1Brain4Wheels 👍 Even pulling the whole dash is quite easy compared to other cars I’ve done

Thanks Brian, I'm glad to hear you're still liking the videos, I've been trying to use my iPhone more when filming since I think the video & audio are a little better on it :) I'll have another video coming out sometime in the future (believe it or not I'm actually busier with work now than I was before the Coronavirus), but basically it's continues from this one so that I could replace the driver side HVAC blend door... I kept getting an error code and the AC would shutoff, turns out it was actually the compressor seal that had gone bad and needed replacement, but at least I fixed an error code haha Oh shoot, I had always been worried about that in my C7's, having a powered door like those makes it especially hard to try and unjam them manually, I almost got an older iPhone stuck in there once, lets just say that close call kept me from trying it again!

@@1Brain4Wheels The iPhone is really amazing, I would have never known you were doing some of your videos with a telephone. 😉

@@brianbarke8 Right?! It's crazy, this video (all iPhone) looks pretty clear except for when the lighting is less than ideal, back when I used to use an actual camcorder (my real early videos), those probably had some of the worst quality footage... it's insane how fast technology advances in just a few years.

@@1Brain4Wheels I just found this and thought of you and your silver C5. There is no accounting for some peoples taste. Don't cry Garrett, I like yours better. gmauthority.com/blog/2020/04/check-out-this-extremely-weird-little-corvette-thing/

Nice, yeah that shouldn’t be too hard to get to, basically everything I showed in this video and then pop off the white plastic rear cover and you should have total access 👍🏻

Were u able to successfully remove the abs light? Any instructions on how to do that once cluster is removed?

Thanks man, and will do! I think my next one will actually be on the C5, I just got new wheels :) And nice, what style is yours?

@@1Brain4Wheels. I have the targa top model.

youngestson 65 oh nice, my first Corvette was a targa too, one type I haven’t seen a lot of in person is the fixed roof coupe (FRC) with the silhouette of a convertible, but a hard top... would definitely like to get a better look at one eventually!

@@1Brain4Wheels . You know you're right. I don't think I've seen a frc version of the c5 so far 🤔

@@youngestson6537 Yeah, I have no idea how many they made (probably not a lot since it didn't have the benefit of being topless and had less storage space) but I think they're kinda cool!

Thanks man!

Gracias Laura! :) Me alegro de poder ayudarte!

Hey Dennis, sorry to hear your convertible is acting up! :( I honestly have no idea how to replace that, my best guess would be similar to the beginning of this video by first removing the A pillar cover so that you can drop down that header trim that runs above the windshield, from there I would guess the sensor would drop down? What exactly is the problem you're having? If the instrument cluster is saying the top isn't latched, I had that happen once or twice, try fully opening and then closing the top, making sure to keep holding the button down for a while after it stops moving both ways, that seems to reset/recal the sensors. Let me know if that helps

Oh wait, I just re-read this (sorry, its late haha) I forgot you have a coupe, you live in Las Vegas right? I remember talking with you a long while back - is it the sensor for the motion sensor activation/deactivation that is based on whether the targa is installed or not? I would definitely try to remove the header trim above the windshield/rear view mirror, that should let you (hopefully) access that sensor and the electrical connection. Refer to this: www.stingrayforums.com/threads/diy-rear-view-mirror-reading-lamp-a-pillar-interior-trim-removal.8813/

I actually figured it out after a lot of research, but thanks for the reply 😃👍

Dennis T nice, I’m glad you got it taken care of!

1Brain4Wheels it’s not a convertible , convertibles don’t hv this sensor. 😃

I’m honestly not sure, but I think the whole dash has to come out for that job. :/ I believe there are a few screws on the upper part of that module which are directly covered by the dashboard?

@@1Brain4Wheels I'm pretty sure you're right. Been procrastinating on this job for too long. Looking for an easy way to get it out but doesn't look like there is.

Thanks, I appreciate the nice comment! :)

Not too bad, definitely expected this job to be tougher than it was!

You have to remove the waterfall because it sits on top of the rear lip of the center console plastic... once you remove it, it frees up the rest of the trim (although I suppose you could just try loosening it?)

You know, I’ve never had to do that before but go ahead and give this thread a read, the OP seems to have detailed it pretty good! www.corvetteforum.com/forums/c5-tech/2077521-how-to-dash-removal-and-hud-install.html
