About 8 years ago that happened to me so I went to the Buick/Pontiac dealer and bought a new one.

I don't know what lead up to this problem but I am guessing a clogged a/c evaporator drain if it has flooded your carpet. Make sure you check and unclog it if necessary or your car may flood again.

These instructions look like they apply to my 1992 Bonneville so I am not sure yours is the same. I ...

Re: Disable the DRL on pre-2000 model cars

Once upon a time, the only vehicles with their headlamps or were motorcycles and emergency vehicles.

I think DRL's make motorcycles and emergency vehicles less visible. IMHO

Re: New Glass.

And everything is made in China now BTW. It isn't just GM.

I have seen and also installed OE Mercedes Benz parts that read "Made in China"
The parts that come to mind are relays, mirror motors, CD changers, etc. Not many
but there are a few.

We had our Bonneville W/S replaced again recently ...

In FL I have no use for a sunroof personally. The lack of a SR was one of the things that attracted me to this car. Having cleaned many drains ...

We've had our Bonnie for 10 years but we are new to the club

I am Mark from Tarpon Springs FL. We bought her with 98k miles and our Bonnie now has 185k miles.
It is a FL car with virtually no rust at all. Unless someone drives through salt water our cars don't rust!

I bought our 92 SSEi 10 years ago with a bad crank, and $450 and about 10 hours of (my ...
