Thanks, Ron, but I decided that the original is good enough. (I was actually able to source a NOS right headlight assembly, but when the dealer...
That's a really nice-looking Classic, in the pale blue paint, no less. The trouble lights are worrisome, though. It's almost a certainty that...
I've used a regular ol' 51R battery, nothing fancy, no AGM. Years ago I converted the Prius battery clamps to SAE size so I could connect to any...
Yeah, I just realized this too. If you google “greentec hybrid batteries” you’ll find their main site. Try this link: Greentec Auto | EV and...
If you want a complete “new” battery, see http://www.greentecauto.com. I had them do a mobile install on my ‘02 last August, with excellent...
