Default Looking for some GM Literature..

Hey folks,

I know I might be "out to lunch" on this one, but just asking if there is anyway to obtain a repair manual for our cars? I'm not talking about the Haynes manual, as I already have one, but I thought that maybe someone sells a GM repair manual that might be more in depth of have colour pictures, etc?

Thanks

Thanks RARON!

I appreciate it guys. It's not that Haynes manuals completely suck, they are somewhat useful for a starting guide, but I'm interested in something more in depth. I will look at purchasing this in a few days.
