1997 Mark VIII LSC Black/Black 1LNLM92V9VY659164 115750mi – I have owned the car since 2000 when it had 32k miles. Price $5800. This price includes an added bonus of 2 brand new in the box factory HID low beam bulbs with the car. These spares will insure you won’t have to worry about HIDs for...

I have been compiling infomation on completed auctions on ebay for all Mark VIIIs. Its helpful to use as a gauge when buying or selling, seeing what color combos and options are common, or rare. This includes cars that are in driving/running condition. Auctions that ended early for any reason...

Has anyone tried this CD changer as a direct plug-in replacement? http://www.neocaraudio.com/prod-changer.html Its the first I've seen that plugs into the factory harness and allows full operation with the OEM head unit just as the original.

My car developed a miss and the check engine light came on flashing. From searching past posts, its probably a coil boot. Car has 86k and never had the plugs out or boots off. After calling 3 local autoparts including NAPA, they all tell me they can get the coil and boot together but not just...

My transmission tailshaft seal is leaking. Its dripping on the exhaust so I smell it every time I get out of the car. The service manual says to unbolt the differential to remove the driveshaft. Is there anything else to it? Does anyone have any words of wisdom on this job? It looks like there...

Replaced my blend door actuator last night. I printed out the instructions by Alexander and followed them to a T. I dreaded this job all summer until I finally had to tackle it due to cold weather. It was really fairly simple with the instructions. Without them it would be a nightmare. I can't...

My 97 has been trouble free for the most part. I recently developed a stalling problem. Car starts but will not idle. When I give it some gas it runs fine with no apparent missing and is driveable as long as I can keep the RPMS over 1000. Never any tuneup work done, no chip etc. Car has 74k...

Pulled up by an S2000 yesterday at the light. I wasn't sure if I should tempt him or not since I've been trying to be a good boy. We both pulled out normal and apparently we both were waiting for the other to make a move. He was ahead when he decided to go. He gained a little but it was brief. I...

Full set from 97 Mark VIII. These are not perfect wheels. All but one of the wheels show some bubbling of chrome around the center hub area but it is not split open. Wheels still look good on the car despite the bubbling. None of the wheels have been "curbed". Tires have a little tread left but...

This forum seems lonely so thought I'd post something. Last weekend I replaced my left side upper control arm. Thanks to Ray Urso's and others past instructions,the job was easy and took about 1.25 hours. I spent 5 minutes trying to figure out a way to do it without unbolting the master cylinder...
