GM is retarded for the placement of the battery in the Solstices. Dead battery, need to take off the front passenger fender and another piece just to get to it

Aren't they behind the inner fender? Take off the wheel and have a look-see. I remember the Cavalier I did a battery on a month or so ago had an access panel that I had to take off.

GMHTP did some tests with lunati cams a couple years ago. They seem to do pretty well.

Its a cheap pos Oreillys job, manual boost gauge. Apparently some seal inside of it let loose so all 30psi through the hose expelled into the cabin. I went by and bought another one in the meantime until I get around to wiring in my Pro Sport gauge.
